    Wonderful hotel.

    May 04, 2013

    Great hotel in the heart of San Francisco. A few minutes to Union Square, shopping, a bus stop and the BART station. You cannot beat the location. The hotel itself has an adorable charm, and a friendly staff. The rooms are a decent size, though the bathrooms are quite small compared to your average hotel. The only negatives: no individual control of AC/heat, and no coffee maker in the hotel rooms. A fan would've been nice, as we woke up sweating almost every morning. Note to staff: put a Keurig in each room, no one wants to take a shower, put on clothes, and go down 4 flights of stairs for coffee.

    My three day stay at the Golden Gate Hotel

    May 01, 2013

    I went to San Francisco to visit three of its art museums. The Golden Gate Hotel and its staff supplied a comfortable, clean, quiet, and safe place to unwind at night. And as I am a cat lover, I was pleased one morning to hear a meowing outside my door, which I opened, and the cat inspected the room and me, after a minute leaving, apparently finding all to its liking.

    Comfortable, cozy, and kind!

    April 30, 2013

    I stayed in a room with a shared bath for one night when passing through SF. The room was nice, clean, and very comfortable. Though I was apprehensive about having to share a bathroom, it was clean and never occupied when I needed to use it. The room had its own sink, soaps, and hairdryer and was very quiet. Breakfast was basic but very nice, with coffee, orange juice, and pastries. I missed the afternoon tea and cookies but I love the idea! All of the staff members were extremely friendly and helpful. I would definitely return to the Golden Gate Hotel.

    Charming home in SF

    April 29, 2013

    I stayed here for a convention at the Moscone, a 15-20 min walk away. Easy making pre-stay arrangements by email. Antique elevator is fantastic. Staff and resident pets are courteous. Clean simple rooms with excellent wi-fi signal. Slightly musty smell - not bothersome to me but might be for some; not unexpected for an early 20th century bldg. Quiet. Excellent croissants for breakfast. Spent far less than I would have at a chain hotel near the convention centet. Would stay here again.

    Great loaction and value

    April 29, 2013

    I was pleasantly surprised to be upgraded to a room with private sink and shower within the room. Using the shower down the hall would also have been acceptable. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. Wifi worked well. The rooms are clean and charming with very very comfortable beds. I was also happy that my room faced to the back as I was worried about street noise. The continental breakfast included super croissants and muffins. The best thing, of course, is the incredibly convenient location. I was attending a conference at Moscone Center which was a short and pleasant walk. Nob Hill and North beach are an easy walk in the other direction. Excellent value in an expensive hotel area.
