Love the hotel, location, and extremely charming room looking out the main street. As a cat lover, Skittles was a highlight as well as the coffee shop across the street. Definitely staying back at the Golden Gate Hotel in the future.

Sujoy, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This was a lovely quaint hotel that had a lot of history behind it. It was my first time staying in a shared bathroom situation but it was actually quite painless and lovely! Also their hotel cat is the cutest little helper and she slept with me all nights I stayed ❤️ I would definitely stay here again.

We have stayed here several times and it is our "go to" place to stay in SF. You can't beat the location, and the nearby restaurants are good.

Cappie, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Amazing hospitality at the Golden Gate Hotel. The staff is friendly and prompt to help customers. Ares were clean and cozy. Enjoyed the tea and coffee provided and the smooth link with the next door partner hotel for breakfast and after-hours check-in. Overall a lovely experience, including a beautiful car who is the soul of the place. Thank you!
Zaira, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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.
Desiree, 2-night trip

Classical and small hotel with the classic elevator I love.

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.
