California - Hotel at / near SAN?

If anyone would recommend an competitively priced hotel at or near SAN, I would appreciate it. I am arriving on AA127 and then departing on AA160 the next day.

Thanks,

There are many ways of searching this out, and there are a number of hotels at / near SAT. Just Googling results in <link (http://www.google.com/search?q=San+Antonio+International+Airport+hotels&sourceid=navclient-ff&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1B3GGGL_enUS214US214)>

Given this has nothing to do with American Airlines, this thread will travel to the appropriate Forum.

The Quality Inn on Nimitz Blvd. seems to genereally have good rates in comparison to a lot of other hotels. Of course this isn't a 5-star hotel either, but very close to the SAN airport and convenient.

Of course you can always use the Sheraton literally across the street from SAN airport. Pricier, but nicer and may be within your range. If you also search on other sites like hotels.com or expedia.com, they can pull up all the hotels close to SAN airport for you. There are quite a few new ones that just opened on Harbor Drive.

Despite my esteemed colleague jdiver speaking of SAT, I believe that the OP is indeed asking about SAN, as AA167 is the nonstop JFK-SAN flight. Thus, I am going to move this onward to the correct forum. cab747 has already given excellent advice about hotels near the San Diego airport.

Priceline is another option. The San Diego Airport is just a mile from downtown San Diego, so there are many hotels within a short range of the airport. We aren't like many towns, with a remote airport and hotels that are specifically built for it.

I recommend you take a look at Humphrey's Half Moon Inn on Shelter Island. It is less than 5 minutes from the airport in a very attractive and relaxed setting. We have stayed there several times and always been very pleased.

Anyone got an alternative to the Doubletree Mission Valley? I have to meet a family member there next month while she is at a convention and we are more interested in a boutique style setting with off-street parking for the rental car. A dining suggestions around here would be welcome as well.

Thanks,

To the OP - I've had good experience with the Sheraton across the street from the airport by using Priceline. Keep in mind there are, I believe, 2 buildings at this property, one closer than the other to the airport.
