The SeaScape Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We had a several hour delay and didn’t get to the hotel until1 1:30 am. Staff worked with us even though they closed and made sure we were able to get a good night’s rest. They truly went above and beyond! Great location too!"

Stanyan Park Hotel

"It was an okay stay would have been better if they has AC they said it’s all over online that they don’t have AC but it’s not so just take note it gets kinda hot in there at night"

My Rosegarden Guest Rooms

10/10 Excellent

"A private home in the Richmond District, just a stone's throw from the Presidio's southern border. Lovingly maintained. This is a nice place to stay if you're OK with being a bit off the SF tourist track. A sumptuous breakfast every day at 8:00 AM. Loved the fog and the foghorns! You're that close to the ocean and the Golden Gate."
