Buena Vista Motor Inn - San Francisco

We stayed here 3 night while visiting San Francisco. We bought the open top bus ticket from the hotel and rode the bus all over. The bus stops right in front of the hotel. There are also other kinds of public transportation available very close. We walked back to the hotel from the wharf a couple times in the evening and felt very safe. It took us about […] 30 minutes to walk at a brisk pace. Breakfast is very minimal but it is a good start if you don't need a big breakfast. San was very helpful the day we checked in. He gave us a lot of info and helped us get our bus tickets. All of the staff was very friendly during our whole stay. We will stay here again when we visit San Francisco. Devamı

The hotel is in a good location and the customer service there is great. They are so helpful in everything that you need. Rooms are clean and beds very comfy.

Clean non-smoking room although corridor is full of smoking smell. good location with free parking! Very weak internet signal (undependable). Breakfast is very very poor, just coffee, juice and some bakery.

Clean, comfortable and reasonably priced, a little dated. Free parking makes it even a better deal. Short walk to the bay and Fisherman's Wharf, $10 cab ride to/from Pier 39. Staff was very friendly and helpful, left our luggage with them when we checked out so we didn't have to have it in view when we parked in various places around Golden Gate Park, […] picked it up around 10 and headed out of the city. Devamı

Pretty good neighbourhood. Bus one block over that will take you to and from Fishermans wharf area. Bus to Golden gate bridge on Lombard about 3 blocks away. Most eating options are a 15min walk away. Free breakfast was OK but was pretty cosy as served on the small lobby area. Wifi in room was good. Staff on desk were helpful but seemed there was only […] one person running the whole place. Clean and tidy, bit the room we got was pretty dark as we looked out the window to a wall of an adjacent building about 4ft away. Devamı

The only negative of this hotel would be its rather dated appearance, it could do with a make over and some new furniture in the lobby area. The parking garage can be a little tight in places and some spaces aren't easy to park a large (american) car. Moving to the positives, this hotel is in an ideal location close to fishermans wharf, the tram line […] and the famous bendy hill road that descends Lombard. I would reccommend the walk however some of the streets are very steep so some may prefer to drive. The room was very comfortable and spacious. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was basic, just pastries and coffee but quality was good. Devamı

This hotel is great for those who want to visit San Francisco in a convenient location, close to public transport and many wonderful restaurants. It is a 20 minute walk to Fisherman's Wharf. The only downside is the continental breakfast which isn't very healthy.

Between the room recently being updated, FREE parking and helpful staff, this hotel is a real buy. Highly recommended.

We asked for a quiet room away from the main street and got a quiet room in the back!!! It wasn't the nicest place I have ever stayed in but it was perfect for our needs and the price was good. It also offered covered off street parking which was a BIG plus but the spaces were very tight. Staff was very helpful as well and I would stay there again.

Hotel was located up the hill from Ghiradelli, good for walking and convenient for bus routes. Free Parking, undercover was a real bonus. Breakfast was somewhat disappointing. Continental meant, very little choice.

good room and location ok however the shower curtain was to short and when showering water would end up on the floor in a puddle.

the above about covers it. musty and old. not very clean. over priced for what you get. try the holiday inn nearer pier 39

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean. Good neighborhood with fun shopping and excellent places to eat.

In general, Hotel is good. but there is no refidge in room. Parking space is tight.

check in took some time. room not ready until 3.30pm

The room was decent. Only stayed one night but it was adequate for sleeping and a shower. Location is great. Walking distance to Fisherman's Wharf and Pier 39. With that in consideration, it's a good "bang for the buck" place to stay.

Great location to Marina district, wharf, and Union street shopping, Bus lines to everywhere in the city. Affordable when free parking is taken into consideration as an amenity. Cab fare to the wharf $10 with tip. I would stay there again.

The staff was very friendly. Great location.

Had a room not facing Lombard. No view but quiet. Free parking a big plus. No charm bur very serviceable for the money.

Very nice hotel a short walk away from Lombard streets famous crooked road. Room was very clean, comfortable and roomy. Helpful desk service staff and use of the computer in the lobby is free for 15 mins. However breakfast is only apple, banana, drinks and pastries - no toast or cereal. Overall satisfactory and in a nice quiet neighbourhood. Even smokers […] probably wont be able to stand the stench of stale smoke so make sure to get a non smoking room if you want to avoid the smell. Devamı

It's pretty run down and VERY basic. My room had a toilet, shower/tub, tv and bed - that's it. The place is not in good condition and even if there had been space in the parking lot I'm not sure I would have parked there - way too tight. But, it was cheap for the night and I slept fine. Not easy to find the kind of price I got within San Francisco without […] the place being scary. This was not scary, but very much down at it's heels. Devamı

Great location, view of the GGB, clean room, FREE parking, can't go wrong with this place. And, on top of all that, it is just off the busline, and tour buses stop right out front to hop on. We actually returned to this property at the end of our trip to Yosemite.

This is a perfect hotel if you are on a tight budget, it is not fancy, a little run down and the decor hasn't been updated since the 70s or 80s... Though the bathrooms were recently updated and were rather nice. I'm not trying to bash the place at all, we had a two room suite, plenty of room, it was a 15-20 minute walk from Fisherman's wharf. The price […] was good and the staff friendly and helpfull and the room was clean. The place is just badly in need of a facelift, but the room was clean. Our room was on the Lombard Ave side of the hotel and that is a very busy street and somewhat noisy even with the windows closed. Overall, if you want a reasonably priced hotel in a decent location and you don't care about how new and nice it is, this is the place for you. A big plus too was the free garage parking and access to your car at all times. Devamı

ok value for the price. room cards don't work well and require multiple tries to open the door. Parking lot is very tight and fills early. A decent clean bargain hotel if you are just looking for a place to crash for the night.

The rooms are rather spartan, but clean. Breakfast available in the lobby is good (Peet's coffee, tasty pastries). Rather a walk to sights Downtown, but plenty to see in the area. We got a good sense of San Francisco, using the Buena Vista as a base.

The Good: Room was large. The hotel has free parking. I could walk to the marina and fisherman's wharf. Hotel was full of tourists from Europe and Australia. The Bad: Room smelled like smoke even though the hotel was non-smoking. Community areas were crowded and tacky.

great value for money in a good location with undercover parking

The desk clerk was friendly and gracious, parking was free in an enclosed/attached garage, the room was very clean, and the location was reasonably close to the Wharf. Continental breakfast was generous as well. The building and guest rooms are dated, and the bed was firm but certainly not plush. But we were pleasantly surprised and felt this qualified […] as an excellent two-star hotel. If you're just looking for a place to spend the night and are not planning to spend a great deal of leisure time inside the hotel room or on the hotel grounds, you will be pleased with this choice.

We spent 3 nights while exploring the City. Staff was helpful with all our questions. Parking is tight but under roof and FREE so no complaints there! The breakfast consists of bananas, apples, coffee and tasty pastries - the food is located in the front lobby area so only about 6 people fit - but it is OK to take your food to your room for eating. […] The motel is close to Hop On-Hop Off and other bus stops. A cab from the wharf to the motel only runs $6 - $8 depending on which cab service you use. The famous crooked street is only about 6 blocks away. All in all we were extremely satisfied with the location and service and would recommend to any one wanting a very reasonably price room with great location! Devamı

nice place for short stay. Ask for rear rooms for quietness.

Loved the location, a little walk to all the sights, but well worth it. Room was comfortable, staff helpful. The garage was conenient, but small, we barley fit into the last spot one night. Breakfst ok, but very limited especially if you got there late.

it is close to many places I wanted to go. All in all, nice hotel and would like to stay again.

A well situated hotel and at a reasonable rate,particularly when you consider that for the price it came with parking and breakfast. On the downside decor appeared dated,breakfast was extremely basic and served in a cramped lobby and the bedding didnt feel crisp and clean.

Close and walking distance to Fisherman's Wharf, otherwise very handy for catching the Muni Bus's.

We loved this little hotel!! So much so that if we could take it with us on the rest of our tour of California, we would!!! Our room was really big with a massive, comfortable bed, clean and fragrant, hair dryer, new bathroom and quiet ,despite being on a main road. The continental breakfast had juices, tea, coffee, pastries, muffins, apples and bananas. […] (good to have the healthy option of fruit) It was in a perfect location..5 mins walk to crooked rd, 10 mins walk to Fishermans whalf and cable car stopped at top of hill which took us striaght to Union Sq. The area was really safe and could walk around when dark. Remember, when reading reviews, everyones expectations are different..if you want a posh hotel and are fussy about a full course breakfast and perfect new decor with staff treating you like you are royalty then you might think this isn't for you ( why are you looking in this price bracket???? Luxuries don't come cheap!) but if you appreciate value for money, a comfortable ,clean bed to lay your head on and a safe and friendly environment then this will be right up your street!! We will be recommending this to friends and will def stay here again!! Devamı

My Husband and I spent the weekend here and we really enjoyed ourselves. The hotel room was nice enough and the people at the front desk were accommodating. The continental breakfast was only coffee and muffins so I was a little disappointed, but the location was worth every penny. We were a $5 cab ride to every attraction that we wanted to see.
