Top Bay Area Discovery Museum Hotel Reviews

The Lodge at Tiburon

8/10 Good

"Room was average, ample parking, but it is not gated as I saw in another review. Coffee in room was good, Starbucks."

Cavallo Point

10/10 Excellent

"Service and location were outstanding."

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"Estuvo muy agradable mi estanco, sin duda me volvería a hospedar ahí, solamente una cosa que el baño de la habitación en que me quedé sentí que estaba algo chico, aunque se agradece que estuvieran el lavamanos afuera del baño"

Inn at Golden Gate

8/10 Good

"We were there for 11 nights. Great motel & location. Noisy people next to us for 3 nights which ruined the experience. Signs need to be put up for people to shhhh because they're just thoughtless!"

Waters Edge Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast brought to our room was excellent and we loved having wine and a fire pit on the deck looking out at the Bay. Espresso and tea in the rooms with a teapot and espresso machine were wonderful to have. AC and heat worked well for changing temperatures outside. Very comfortable bed and ALL bedding was washed and clean, not just the sheets like in many hotels. Excellent location for walking. Grocery market and walking trail close by. Parking is much closer than it looks on the map."

Comfort Inn by the Bay

8/10 Good

"Overall, the hotel is fairly budget, friendly for the area, but comes with a couple of disadvantages. Parking is $35 per vehicle and a very tight structure, there are no refrigerators in the rooms, and overall it’s just a bit older. Breakfast was complementary, which was standard for most hotel of this level. Overall nothing negative to say. Decent location and very close to Lombard street"

"Was a good location next to some good restaurants. Walls are very thin and you can hear everything. So keep that in mind. But the room has what it needs"

The Gables Inn - Sausalito

8/10 Good

"This is a great location in Sausalito. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and clean."
