Guest Houses in San Francisco

Excellent place, perfect location, beautiful two story house!

Comfortable clean and convenient

We spent a week at The Grove Inn in a Deluxe Queen Room and my Mum had a week also in a Deluxe Queen Room with Bay Window. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the housekeeping staff did a wonderful job and the entire time we were there we heard no noise from other guests despite The Grove Inn being fully occupied, so everyone was very respectful of everyone else which was great! The rooms are ingeniously laid out to ensure each has its own private bathroom facilities. Due to space constrictions, sometimes this means the basin is in the bedroom, however there is no inconvenience associated with this, rather it adds to the quirkiness of the property. We loved the layout of our room (18), being a corner room there was plenty of light as there were windows on two sides and nice views. We had plenty of space for our suitcases and shopping (of which there was a great deal!), hanging space and room on the shelf, along with a sizable desk and chair, great tv with plenty of channels (once we figured out how to use it properly!) and a comfortable chair for sitting as well as a bench seat which we used for our purchases. There is a bus stop right outside and others nearby (depending on where you are headed!). Shops are a short walk away so the fact that there is no breakfast included is not really an issue. We bought some provisions such as yogurt, fruit and milk which we could store in the mini-fridge (although it did have a tendency to freeze things that were on the upper shelf and space was limited) and we asked for spoons which were promptly provided. The location was terrific: a nice, quiet neighbourhood and seemingly little crime. We had a hire car which we were able to park every day on the street at no cost, however, be mindful of the signage and parking times as street cleaning restrictions differ depending on the day and side of the street you are parked - we did see cars with tickets on their windows!

Very clean. Very spacious and modern, felt very at home.

This is a hidden gem of a place a stone's throw from Muir Woods and really great mountain hikes. Yes, it's lovely 1970s American Modernist feel could use a like of paint in places, but it more than makes up for that in its character and charm. The view from my balcony over woods and water to San Francisco was stunning--the hotel is on a panoramic ridge with views in both direction. It's a short walk to a trailhead that will take you down into Muir Woods National Monument and the giant redwoods (saving you the $15 entry fee and the $9 parking fee). I had the wild salmon for dinner which was also excellent. The staff were super-friendly and (I felt) actually cared about me and how I was doing (rather than just running through a script.

A beautiful place to stay, clean and modern, right next to the beach. Very helpful and welcoming staff.

We got everything we needed. Just like stay at home. There are many buses nearby connecting to many places we want to go. My daughter loves the secret space under the stairs and the private garden. We both like the handwriting map and very comprehensive guidebook. It's a perfect home!
