Top Kimball Natural History Museum Hotel Reviews

The Hotel Castro San Francisco

6/10 Okay

"Check in is tricky - make sure you follow their instructions, before you arrive. I spent 20min in the cold standing outside while I tried to take a pic of my driver’s license. Someone was nice enough to let me in the door, but there was no reception on the ground floor so I had to be outside. Once you’re setup with your pin, everything works. The door was a bit fidgety, and the blinds in my room did not work lol this meant the blinds (which are black outs btw) is permanently locked at whatever position it is in. Ultimately the bed was comfortable and the stay was fine but I can’t recommend the property."

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Had a great few days here! It was easy for us to get around from this location, plus lots of food/shops near by if needed. We didn’t really get to use the pool but we used the sauna and that was nice! The hot/cold water readily available was great as well. One note, it was really dark in the hallways for some reason?! Not a huge thing, but was just odd!"

Stanyan Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is a charming landmark, renovated old hotel in a location that is very convenient to eighth Street and Golden Gate Park. It is well appointed, with clean, comfortable rooms and has a period charm. The staff is very accommodating. There is a dining room where a better than average breakfast is available every morning and you can bring your own food and eat there. It is very pleasant and well lit. The breakfast are generous and there are snacks available all day. I highly recommend it."

Geary Parkway Motel At Mine Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean and looked like it was recently renovated. There were also no odors, which is important to us as we are allergic to pets and dislike the smell of smoke. I personally liked that the room didn’t have carpeting as it made for a cleaner floor. The motel is on a semi busy street so there is some street noise but the motel was thoughtful enough to provide ear plugs for those who needed it. There are also limited parking spots that’s offered on a first come first served basis. The fee was $20 a night. The staff was very friendly and helpful so a 👍 to them. We would definitely consider staying here again the next time we’re in town."

The Monte Cristo

10/10 Excellent

"The absolute best bed & breakfast in San Francisco! Cleanest rooms, friendliest and most attentive staff, great location, most delicious breakfasts and snacks/baked goodies throughout the day. Our son graduated from USF this past Saturday and we’ve consistently stayed here. On our next trip to S.F., just to visit and explore more we’ll stay there again!"
