This hotel is in a beautiful historic home. The garden is rustic and gorgeous with a hillside. I sat on the porch with a glass of wine looking out at these enormous trees that reached and spread out above me. It was so silent I could hear the birds and relax completely. I appreciated the option of being able to... More

We stayed over this past weekend. The B&B is beautiful and charming; great accommodations, located in a residential area of San Rafael. The owners are friendly and personable. I highly recommend staying here if you are looking to relax in a quiet, beautiful area in a northern california.

My friend and I went to see Ina Garten, back in November when she was speaking at the Dominican College. Gerstle Park Inn, was rated #1, after having been there it's understandable why they are #1. While this is a B&B we had a private entrance as well as main entry, when we got to our cottage, it was so... More

Charming small gem hidden away in the leafy center of San Rafael. Lovely Victorian decor with all modern conveniences - wi-fi, flat screen TV, etcc. Breakfast quite nice. Warm and obliging owners. Highly recommended.

We stayed in the "Lodge Suite" while visiting family in San Rafael. For us, it was the perfect location b/c it was only a couple of blocks from our family and a short walk to "downtown." All in all, we enjoyed our stay at the Gerstle Inn very much. The setting, gardens, architecture, amenities and room were all topnotch, but... More

The building and bed rooms are beautiful, but then there was the breakfast menu with about 10 selections, including three types of eggs Benedict. I was amazed to see Jim, the owner and manager making breakfast for about a dozen people at that moment all by himself in the kitchen. I do not want to understate how important his wife,... More

Very comfortable and attractive common areas. Wonderful grounds with beautiful oaks and redwoods. Afternoon tea on the patio--doesn't get any better. Very quiet for good nights sleep. Great breakfast.... More

I called here yesterday to inquire about renting the entire B&B for an extended stay for our out of town wedding and out of town guests next year. Not only do we live out of the area but so do all of our guests. Apparently they would only rent us half of the house and wanted to reserve the rest... More
