Top San Diego Automotive Museum Hotel Reviews

The Sofia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Charming architecture."

Ash&9th

8/10 Good

"Property was clean enough. Room was nice. Staff were relatively helpful. No conditioner in shower"

Hampton Inn San Diego-Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms was very clean got some good sleep"

Palihotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"we had a great stay at Palihotel. The location was good and almost all the staff was helpful and friendly. We had an issue with one valet person, he was never around when we dropped off or picked up our car. At one point we waited a half hour and he finally showed up getting out of the passenger seat of a car. At $65 a night for parking that was frustrating. It was only one person and he only worked one day we were there. The other valet employees were great."

Hard Rock Hotel San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent staff, excellent room. Great amenities. I would stay there again. I was impressed."

The Neon Elm Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff was very responsive and helpful. Nice to have a kitchen (though you need to remember to get oil, condiments, etc). Some pans, utensils, cups, and dishes available. Microwave and full fridge super convenient to have! Outdoor activity area was nice. Area surrounding hotel was a little sketchy but we parked on the street without issues. Biggest downside was the noise—planes overhead and more sirens than I’m used too (not sure of its bc hotel is located near freeway or the general area itself)."
