Great stay at the Golden Gate IHG. Clean, comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and an excellent location for getting around San Francisco. Would definitely stay here again.
We stayed here for 2 nights and it was clean, quiet, comfortable, and in a great location - we left our rental car in the garage and walked all over the City. We would definitely stay here again in the future!
Only place we will stay when traveling to SF. Friendly staff, easy check- in and check- out process. The rooms were upgraded and beds are always very comfortable. A Nice added feature we had this stay were the automatic blackout shades.
