Top San Diego Automotive Museum Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Downtown Little Italy

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent experience! Location provided easy access to expressway for traveling to attractions around the area! Highly recommend!"

Omni San Diego Hotel at the Ballpark

8/10 Good

"My daughter and I were in town for Comic Con this year (2026) and needed a nice hotel to stay in which was close to the convention center: the Omni at the Ballpark certainly fit that bill. (I am a writer and had a booth at the convention.) We found the servers at the Fres.co (breakfast) and at Tortuga (lunch) to be very kind (the staff in general was eager to please). We availed ourselves of the pool and hot tub. The beds were comfortable. My only complaint is that Saturday night there was a private party at the pool. It ran well past midnight. It was very difficult to sleep with all of the noise."

Ash&9th

8/10 Good

"We booked this hotel for a one night stay because we had a late flight arriving. It was on the more affordable side compared to other hotels in the area, though it wasn’t the cheapest. The room matched the photos, and everything was decent overall. The building is older, which shows in some areas, but it was acceptable for a short stay. One highlight was the staff. The guy who checked us in was very friendly and gave us a great recommendation for a late night meal. He suggested Tacos El Gordo, which was about a half mile walk away and definitely worth it. Overall, we got what we paid for. The hotel wasn’t bad, but it just wasn’t the right fit for our preferences. While our stay was fine for one night, we wouldn’t choose to stay here again."

Holiday Inn Express San Diego Downtown by IHG

8/10 Good

"We really enjoyed breakfast each morning, Austin at the front desk was amazing and always friendly and helpful. Our only issue was the air conditioner in our room broke and we were without air our last night (the socket caught fire and melted the plug). The hotel was full so they were not able to move us to another room. It was helpful to have the laundry on site so we didn’t fly home with bags of dirty clothes."
