Holiday Inn Golden Gateway by IHG

8/10 Good
"Holiday Inn San Francisco-Golden Gateway Review 5/5 Stars — Exceptional Location and Value Staying here with family was an absolute pleasure, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Perfectly situated in Nob Hill, the hotel puts you within a very short walk to fantastic dining options along Polk Street. Getting around the city is effortless, with convenient access to public transit right outside, plus reliable car service availability via Waymo and Uber. The property offers great amenities for families and travelers alike. The pool and gym access are fantastic, with the gym open 24 hours and a convenient laundry facility on-site. The on-site restaurant delivers great meal service, making dining in exceptionally easy after a long day of exploring. Additionally, having a hospital nearby adds an extra layer of peace of mind. Considering the unbeatable location, excellent amenities, and very reasonable room rates, this hotel easily earns a 5-star rating. Highly recommended for families visiting San Francisco!"

"The room was clean, carpet outdated and not my favorite in a hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful. They are able to hold your luggage upon check out, so you can continue to explore the city. Parking is located across the street near the police station, for a very reasonable fee. The area is quite and walkable, with Golden Gate Park across the street. On my next visit into the city I would definitely stay here rather than downtown."
