San Francisco and related destinations

Fog rolls across the Golden Gate Bridge while cable cars clank up impossibly steep hills lined with candy-colored Victorian houses. At Pier 39, sea lions bark and pose as if auditioning for wildlife documentaries. The Mission's muralists transform walls into canvases while locals debate which taqueria serves the definitive burrito. Alcatraz broods in the bay, its audio tour narrated by former guards and inmates. Golden Gate Park hides surprises around every bend – Japanese gardens, actual bison, and museums where you could happily lose an afternoon. For the best city views, skip the tourist crowds at Lombard Street and head to Twin Peaks, where the whole magnificent bay panorama unfolds at your feet.

"I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff were friendly and welcoming, and I especially want to recognize Jeanne, who was exceptionally kind, helpful, and made my experience even more enjoyable. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and very nice overall. I also loved the complimentary breakfast each morning, which was a great bonus. Although the parking area was a little small, it did not take away from my overall positive experience. The location was very convenient, with an easy drive to the pier and other nearby attractions. I would highly recommend this hotel to families, couples, solo travelers, and anyone visiting the area. Thank you for such a pleasant stay! I would definitely stay here again."

"The room was clean but I believe the bathroom must have been cleaned in a rush as some of the shower wall tiles were a bit dirty. The actual property is beautiful and quite large. Beware if you paid extra for a room with a view, don’t accept a room early because you won’t get a room with said view. I’d also like to mention that the location of this property isn’t correct on google maps or uber- so it is a bit challenging trying to call and find an uber to the hotel. The staff is really nice as well."
