I booked this room with my Choice Rewards points and overall its a nice hotel. The location has a little to be desired if you are just passing through the San Francisco area though. The hotel is on a very busy street, so if you do stay here, I highly recommend asking for a room facing the back of the... More

The Villa Montes Hotel is European to the core - from its lobby to the room decor to the elevator music. We stayed 3 nights on our way to Zealand and liked it so much that we booked another two nights on our way back. Each time, we booked a room with two beds - and received a room with... More

I noticed several recent good reviews of this property and they are well deserved. If you are planning a visit to Half Moon Bay and a meal at the Distillery in Moss Beach, this property is minutes away from the coast or the attractions of San Francisco. Inside, the hotel is tastefully appointed. The front desk is faced in colored,... More

An online search for hotels directed us to this hotel. We were impressed with the reviews and all the amenities which were offered for the price. We were assigned a room which was not overlooking EL Camino Real so it was quiet. Only a couple of things would have made it a bit better and that would have been having... More

Loved it! Could not believe how nice/fancy it was for the price. They could not have been nicer. I came in at 9PM and was offered a cookie/coffee/glass of wine. The place feels brand new and modern. There is a PC/printer on each floor. The light/fixtures and decor are very modern. In many ways I felt as if I were... More

I was pleasantly surprised with this hotel, which we chose because of its proximity to SFO for an early flight. It looks like any of the string of motels on El Camino, but on the interior, the layout is spacious, the decor is almost extravagant, and the rooms are clean and well appointed. AND the price is great. This is... More

For the price, this was one of the nicer hotels we have stayed at. We traveled with two young kids and the staff was very helpful, bringing us extra towels, opening the room safe after our daughter had closed it, and setting up breakfast a little early on the morning we had to leave. We chose the hotel because of... More

My wife, 18 month old son and I stayed on the Peninsula near to SFO at Villa Montes. We rented a car for transportation so getting around was not a problem, but typically we like to use public transportation on our travels. Parking was free and located below the hotel. VM was not that convenient to the BART station (probably... More

A truly lovely, attractive hotel on a busy strip of El Camino Real in San Bruno, a few miles from San Francisco airport. Comfortable, plush rooms, warm attentive service, complimentary breakfast, fitness center, glass of wine, cookies, coffee or tea. Pool and spa undergoing replacement. Free transportation from and to airport. Extremely reasonable. Said to be a favorite for visitors... More
