Top University of California Hotel Reviews

Geary Parkway Motel At Mine Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"All was fantastic only missing thing is the coffee and tissues."

Casa Loma Hotel

8/10 Good

"Check in staff very friendly and helpful. Rooms are small but perfect for a night or two when passing through. Unfortunately I missed the part about no AC but opening the windows solved that. But be aware that it can get loud from the street noise. They do have fans to borrow to help with cooling. It was a great stay and would stay again, and would recommend it."

Stanyan Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel, highly recommend upgrading to the 2 bedroom with 3+ people!"

Symphony Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Very. Convenient for the Opera, good prices , nice quiet rooms."

Hayes Valley Inn

10/10 Excellent

"It's a simple pleace, but really clean and cozy. A nice place to stay!"

The Metro Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great restaurant Esme right next door. Rooms are clean but can be stuffy on warm days"

Parker Guest House San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay overall! The houses are just beautiful and very well-maintained, with beautiful gardens - an oasis in the middle of the bustling city. We have zero complaints about our stay there."

Perramont Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The man at the front desk was extremely helpful! I had trouble figuring out parking and he was more than willing to help me figure it out. As other reviews state, this is an older hotel with shared bathrooms and showers. The reviews honestly had me more worried than I needed to be as I had zero issues while staying here. I went to a show right next door so the location was perfect. I am a solo female traveler and I felt safe staying here. I would stay again if I had another show next door."

Twin Peaks Hotel

8/10 Good

"This place rules! Excellent location and very reasonable price. The one thing keeping me from rating this 5 stars was the wifi. It was practically unusable for work, but even less powerful tasks like checking the weather or email were difficult because the wifi was so bad. Everything else was great and would still recommend, if you work remotely I suggest going to a coffee shop or co-working space."
