The Emerald Plaza is a prominent fixture in San Diego's skyline and is considered by many to be the most iconic building in downtown San Diego. Located in the Core district of downtown San Diego, Emerald Plaza is made up of a series of hexagonal towers ranging in height from 12 to 30 stories creating the appearance of a giant cluster of emerald crystals.

The hotel portion of the project opened as the Pan Pacific Hotel. It was subsequently operated as a Wyndham Hotel and most recently as a Westin Hotel.

The Westin San Diego is a 4-diamond hotel with 436 rooms in one of the towers. It has a 100 feet (30 m) high glass atrium, which contains a large green glass sculpture named "Flying Emeralds".The hotel is served by The Grill, serving Californian cuisine, and the rooms start on the fourth floor up to the Presidential Suite on the 25th. The ballroom and conference facilities cover an area of 22,000 square feet, and the hotel also contains a law library. On the third floor are the "war rooms", which contains executive conference rooms with space for administrative and paralegal staff.
