Places to Visit on A Road Trip Around California

California is one of the largest states in California so when it comes to planning a road trip, there is so much to tick off. In fact, if you want to really enjoy it you need to book in some quality time in one of the many hotels in California so you can really appreciate everything it has to offer. And if you really want to see everything that California’s famous for, make sure you’ve organized some transport.

Got to Start Somewhere

You could spend your time looking for hotels near Six Flags Los Angeles but we can help you do one better than that. When you stay with us, not only will you be in a prime location within LA, but you can also take advantage of our Good Nite Inn Sylmar promo code to save some dollars – a great way to start your road trip! Once you’ve got somewhere to set up camp, it’s time to get in the car and tick off the great Californian bucket list. Let us help you along the way.

From Sylmar to Celebrities

Did you know that the Good Nite Inn Sylmar is perfectly placed for celeb spotting? From here you can easily get into central LA and enjoy the city. As part of your road trip, you have to make the obligatory visit to the Hollywood Walk of Fame and see the sign from the Griffith Park Observatory. After that, it’s time to get in the car and really experience the road trip side of things.

Pacific Coast Highway

From LA, head up the Pacific Coast Highway towards San Francisco for what has been defined as one of the best road trips in the world. The scenery is truly amazing and if you’ve got your camera ready, expect to do lots of stops along the way to capture the memories. We’d recommend a slight detour when you begin so you head to Malibu first, purely so you can enjoy the amazing sandy beaches there. Then it’s back onto the highway, where you can take in as many epic destinations as you like. For instance, Santa Cruz, Big Sur and the Julia Pfeffer Burns State Park are amazing places to visit. In fact, at the state park you can see the waterfall that falls beautifully down to the beach – a must have for any Instagram.

Visit San Francisco

If you’re driving all the way up the Pacific Coast Highway, carry on to San Francisco and drive over the famous Golden Gate Bridge. Then spend some time in San Francisco, perhaps check out Alcatraz or take a cable car down the iconic steep streets. It’s also home to the famous Redwood trees so make sure to put San Francisco on your list.

National Parks

California has some of the most beautiful National Parks in the country and you’d be remiss not to visit them. Joshua Tree National Park is one that’s very popular with our guests. As part of your road trip you can arrange to camp there. However, if you’re heading over to the equally iconic Death Valley, note that it’s famous for being the hottest and driest place in North America. So maybe you won’t want to camp there!

Check In then Check Out California

When you stay with us, we don’t ask for much, just that you’re aware of the Good Nite Inn check in time so you can get into your room without any delay. And that you have fun! If you need any assistance with planning your trip, never hesitate to ask.
