Stayed at the Meridien Stuttgart last month when I went. Not immediately nearby but it's across a nice park and within walking distance of the shopping district and restaurants. You can take a bus from there to Zuffenhausen.

I like the Strohgaeu in Korntal-Munchingen just a few minutes drive from Zuffenhausen.

Direct vicinity would be 'budget' hotels which put you in the heart of everything Porsche:

http://www.golden-leaf-hotel.de/
http://www.achat-hotel.de/wDeutsch/w...ture/index.php

I've used both and as stated are budget hotels. Clean and cheap within about 500 meters or so from the Museum. Easy drive or take the train from the Porsche Museum stop to get into town, town meaning the heart of Stuttgarts shopping/arts/food district, it's like 5 Euro roundtrip but that was about 2 years ago.

Seriously consider the Adler Asperg (in Asperg). They have a Ferry Porsche room. They are located at Stuttgarter Straße 2, 71679 Asperg. 07141-2660-0

They have a really nice indoor pool as well. I stayed there when I picked up my latest Porsche. 15 minutes from Zuffenhausen. (11.3 km)

I like Porsches but that room is too much for me!

Maybe they have a Marlene Dietrich room? No?

Steigenberger graf zeppelin was under construction for massive remodel when I stayed there in late July. I would suggest staying at another hotel.
