We loved our stay here. We knew we wouldnt be spending much time in the hotel, but would want a cozy and comfy place to sleep and it was perfect. The bed was super soft. I do wish I had known that breakfast was actually at the sister hotel a few doors down, so you can't just pop downstairs. Also, the king beds are two twins, but given the tight staircase it makes sense. It was easy to get around the city from here and was the perfect homebase.

Good location

The location is great and it is close to the financial district, union square and still quiet most of the time. The only thing traveller needs to be careful is to make sure not to book the room in the basement where you do not have the private bathroom.

Loved the house kitty! I was a little disappointed to find out we were in the basement bedroom but thankfully there was a window to the outside. The property had an “old” smell but that is to be expected with older homes. The staff was extremely accommodating & the area was perfect for a downtown experience. Parking was off site across the street so prepared to pay $$$ Overall would stay again for the price!

Quiet, comfy beds, very well-maintained/clean. The breakfast is pretty basic, but it's complimentary. Had a few issues with charges, mostly revolving around their inability to explain some of them, as well as one random extra charge. Heads up, they do charge a nightly amenities fee plus a nightly pet fee. So, if traveling with pets, expect to pay an extra $45/nite. Ultimately, it was this charge that prevented me from extending my stay. Lost track of time on my last day and was an hour late checking out. Front desk guy gave me a harder time than I think he should have. I had been there for 10 days and thought that should have earned me to a little leeway but it was Saturday and they needed to flip the room. So I kind of understand the reason for the harshness, but I I could have used some help with my bags and I just kind of felt like they were kicking me out after showing out about 1300 bucks.

Loved the Golden Gate Hotel! You can access pretty much everything in San Francisco from this location, by taking public transportation. This was our homebase for five nights. The only reason for taking one star off was the included breakfast at their sister hotel down the street. The breakfast was very limited and ran out of some items by 8:30 AM which they would not replenish. We only ended up using the breakfast two out of our five mornings, and the included breakfast was one reason I chose this hotel over another. Disappointed in the breakfast, but the hotel itself and staff get five stars!

This was our second time staying at the Golden Gate and we absolutely loved it. The hotel is filled with lovely classic fixtures and very friendly staff (including Skittles the resident cat). The rooms are comfortable, clean and nicely decorated. The location is great and close to some fantastic restaurants. Would definitely stay again the next time we’re in SF!
