Top University of California Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Golden Gateway by IHG

8/10 Good

"Call uber when going to Masonic…before walking half a mile…uphill with questionable knees."

Hilton San Francisco Union Square

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I stay there once a month. I always try to get a balcony room at the highest floor. I don’t think I’ve gotten the highest floor yet."

Symphony Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Large rooms. Nice owners. Free parking!"

The Grove Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great location clean and cozy"

Stanyan Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyed my 4 night stay here. Great location by the Park, very helpful staff, room was clean, just a little tired, but that’s to be expected given its age and breakfast was good. The wine in the afternoon was also a nice touch. Will definitely stay again."

Casa Loma Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is conveniently located. Bus 22 stops right outside. The room is small but clean."

Becks Motor Lodge

8/10 Good

"Spent three nights solo in a king room. The property is clean but no frills. No food (but I had excellent breakfast at nearby Wooden Spoon). Room size was generous, but no desk. Free parking was a great attraction; I got an early (11am) check in for my car."

Hotel Majestic

8/10 Good

"The biggest issue is there is no desk in the room. It's hard to work on a laptop on the bed. Having the restroom available is nice, but I want to be in my pajamas and work in my room instead of face the public. :)"

The Laurel Inn, part of JdV by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"Great location in the Presidio. Clean and comfortable room. Will stay again when back in SF!"
