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!

A great, relatively more affordable option in San Francisco! Pros: The hotel is in a good location if you are willing to walk a bit, and public transport is easily accessible. The area is safe at night. Everything was clean (room, shower, washrooms, etc.), and toiletries were available too. Bed was also quite comfy! Free breakfast was provided every day (a <1 min walk down the street at their sister hotel), and it was quite yummy (basic continental breakfast but it was a good one). They also provide some complimentary cookies and tea/coffee in the afternoon! And the cat. The cat is great (unless you’re allergic to cats, not so great). Cons: Room is small (though this isn’t technically a con because you can see that the room is small when you book it). But, you’re not spending much time in the room anyways, so no big deal at all. There was no AC, and we weren’t able to turn off the heater in the room. However, the nice lady at the front desk immediately brought us up a portable AC unit! So if you’re worried about no AC and the room getting hot, the amazing staff will happily help you with that. Overall, I recommend staying here if you don’t mind longer walks to other areas of the city, and want a more affordable option that is still clean, safe, and comfortable.

Great spot to stay. Close to the Museum of Modern Arts, you can walk to the fisherman's wharf, there's plenty of public transportation options around. The hotel was good, free breakfast is in another property but it's less than a three minute walk. Overall, extremely satisfied with the experience!

Close to Masonic
The hotel is cute and quaint. Check in was easy. There was a strong smell of cleaning chemicals when we entered our room We tried to shower before dinner but there was no hot water. The walls are paper thin and our neighbors woke us up having a conversation at 2 in the morning. The next morning we tried to shower and again no hot water. Also, the outlets sparked when we tried to plug in our phone charger. The place was cute but we’d probably stay somewhere else next time. We were happy that it was so close to the Masonic so that was a bonus for us.
