San Remo Hotel

I had a wonderful experience! Highly recommend! This place is a piece of San Francisco history. Beautiful stained glass windows and decorative wood trim. Each room is decorated with unique antique furniture and artwork. No two rooms have the same décor. The staff take pride in their hotel. Everyone was welcoming and genuinely cared that I was enjoying my stay. They have really good free coffee and all the toiletries are available in the bathroom, so you don't need to bring shampoo or soap. I wasn't sure how the shared bathrooms would work, but it ended up being just fine. They have lots of individual shower rooms and bathrooms. I never had to wait, and since each toilet or shower is its own room with a door that locks behind you, no one is walking in on you. Full privacy. Great location too! There is a fancy Italian restaurant downstairs. Trader Joe's is a block away, and Fisherman's Wharf just a few blocks beyond that. Walking distance to Coit Tower and the zig-zag of Lombard Street. This place is great, and I hope to stay here again.

Overall solid experience!! Great staff and housing. Very historic building and you can feel it! Location is quite close to Fisherman’s wharf making it easy access to all the amenities in North Beach. Single bathrooms and showers are shared between travers in separate rooms but I had no issue securing a spot when I needed to. 10/10 would recommend!!

The only con to the accomodation was essentially the narrow stairs 😂 a pain for bigger bags. The staff were great and location isn't too bad a walk from the fisherman's warf area and the cable car stops as well as China Town. I arrived in San Fran via bus and walked,of course it's San Fran there is going yo be an incline or 2! I had sent a special request asking if it was OK to store some luggage as I got in early morning and the hotel website didn't mention luggage storage they ended up just checking me in early. Not sure if this was due to my request or whether ir just worked out for me! My room had shared/communal bathroom. Wasn't an issue at all, quite private from other using the same facilities at the same time amenities were quite good hair dryer and shampoo etc all available for use

San Remo has a wonderful location and reasonable rates for a fairly comfortable room with a shared bath. The hotel has changed ownership in recent years, and I’m sorry to say the old world charm is gone. Now it’s just old. Everything is dingy and poorly maintained: gaping hole in front door, dirty stairway littered with constuction dust, filthy hallway carpets, a broken towel rack by the shared bathroom sink, and tattered shades in the bedrooms. What once was an airy, clean and well maintained European style hotel is now sloppy, under construction, and incredibly dirty. After over 20 years of visits, I will never stay here again.
