Top Museum of Photographic Arts Hotel Reviews

Lafayette Hotel & Club

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing place"

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Downtown Little Italy

8/10 Good

"Place was nice and clean, staff was friendly, the only thing that was awful was the parking, parking was $45 per night, and it was so small, struggle to park, there’d hardly any space, the second night I just stayed across the street and it was $40 and didn’t struggle going inside that place that felt like a tiny warehouse"

Palihotel San Diego Gaslamp Quarter

8/10 Good

"Overall, we were very pleased with our stay. The hotel offered a very pleasant atmosphere and gave a European vibe. The convenience of the location was amazing, so we were able to enjoy walking and exploring. If the both elevators were in working order, I would have given it 5 stars. We will be staying here again in the future."

Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego

8/10 Good

"This place was amazing great location! Only downside was the parking garage, already narrow parking garage, coupled with big cars parking in the compact spots and on level three they are using part of the row for storage so you have to squeeze in. Other than that great stay but be mindful if you have a bigger vehicle when parking."

The Sofia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was great, room was a bit smaller than expected but worked well for my family of 3. There was a hot water issue but fixed right away and one day we were left with no towels but again immediately corrected when we asked, brought up within 5 mins. I could see dust around the closet edges but the bed was always made and sheets clean. Also one of the elevators was broken which made a bit of longer wait at times. Great location to walk to seaport, midway little Italy or the convention center with a lot of restaurants. It was great to have parking available as well and not have to worry about that being downtown."
