Top Knox House Museum Hotel Reviews

Northgate Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the comfortable Beds room was really big and nice"

Best Western Plus La Mesa San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"The room was spacious and clean. All of the staff, from the front desk to the kitchen and cleaning staff, were wonderful. It’s also nice that it is convenient, but away from the congested “Hotel Circle” area."

WoodSpring Suites Santee - San Diego Northeast

8/10 Good

"Stayed here for a few nights and it was clean, the beds were comfy, and having the kitchenette was great. The staff were kind and helpful. However, they charge extra for linens, and that seems like it should be included in the room cost. I never experienced this at another hotel. And you have to take your used towels to the front desk to get clean ones and exchange them. That was a bit of a hassle. Overall I recommend this hotel just be aware of the extra fees."

Motel 6 El Cajon, CA - San Diego

10/10 Excellent

"Would book again!"

Rancho San Diego Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent
