Top San Diego Automotive Museum Hotel Reviews

The Neon Elm Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place!!"

Gaslamp Plaza Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Not enough access to food. Needed to exit the hotel to find snacks, etc."

Marriott Vacation Club®, San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"The suite was a good price for what it was and the location was downtown so very convenient to go to the Petco. Stadium did not like the timeshare deal that they were trying to get everybody to sign up with, but you can just say no and walk away."

Keating Hotel By At Mine Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great value! Really nice staff, both engaging via texts and in person. Self service if you need more soap or lotion. The room is large and quiet and the location is ideal. One thing to note is that the shower and sinks are not separated from the bed area so privacy can be a challenge (the toilet is enclosed)."
