I was visiting family for Thanksgiving and stayed here for one night. The room was clean and spacious with basic amenities. Parking was included. The location was fantastic, close to restaurants and bars and public transportation. Great value for your money.

We loved this place - what a great value. The room was spacious and very clean, the location was safe and near restaurants and bars, Whole Foods was a fairly short walk, there was free parking, and the bed was comfortable. The mini-fridge even had a separate freezer, which can come in handy! The Castle Inn will probably be our new go-to place to stay when in San Francisco.

The hotel is priced moderately and located in a convenient location near area attractions. The bed was comfortable, the room was quiet and had been updated and was very nice and clean. The free parking was the deal maker.

This was such a great deal for the price! Free covered parking in the back (there’s only about 10 spaces, 2 for small cars.) This place is a not fancy but it’s super clean, the room felt spacious, nice long desk, quick hot water, and nice pressure shower. We would definitely stay here again.

Castle Inn is good place to stay in if you are looking for an affordable and most of all safe place to stay. We stayed for 8 nights. The neighborhood you’re in is where mostly locals are and there are lots of stores nearby like Walgreens, Starbucks and restaurants. My 2 teens felt comfortable and the buses are near on all corners to go either the Fisherman’s Wharf and the Union Square and even outside the City. Castle Inn is in a better part of Broadway cause my relatives thought we were in a bad area. The room we were in, is a clean 2 Queen Beds and it was spacious that fitted our 1 luggage, 4 carry ons and 4 personal items. There’s a good working tv, coffee maker, a small fridge, microwave, iron and a hair dryer. Everything you need in a room and best of all, free parking. Just be mindful with the type of vehicle you rent due to small spaces. Lucky thing that our room was in the 1st floor too because I’m not sure if the elevator was working or we just didn’t know how to work it. Better to book direct as well because it’s more affordable. Overall, my family, 100% recommends Castle Inn and we will definitely go there again when we do visit SF. Also, the pictures needs to be updated on this website as it doesn’t do it justice.…

Extremely comfortable room and bed. Super location. Great value. Safe to walk to nearby attractions like Fisherman’s Wharf and Chinatown. Close to Hyde street to catch a cable car. Best blackout curtains I’ve ever seen, and if you turn the fan on traffic sounds are a non issue. Highly recommend!

Room Tip: Be careful parking in the lower lot. It’s extremely narrow. My full size car didn’t make it.

The Castle Inn is well located in the northwest most corner of Nob Hill, reasonably priced, and adjacent to Polk Street, one of the cities popular "eat streets." The rooms are not large, but they are clean, the beds comfortable, and our needs were more than adequately met. There is off street parking, although the parking area is tight. Despite the open-terrace on three floors, we never felt insecure secure. We would not hesitate to come back.

Very clean. Beds made up every day. Good shower. Polk street around the corner with a lot of very nice restaurants and a very good vibe. Parking is free. Top price/quality. Approximately half an hour walk to ferry building respectively Fisherman s Wharf through a nice part of SF with great views. If you stay on the 3rd floor you can catch a glimpse of the Golden Gate. Recommended.

I had made a reservation through Expedia which I cancelled and was refunded. I got a phone call just now asking when I was checking in and I explained to her that I had canceled it. She then proceeded to tell me that I had made another reservation and I told her I had no confirmation of that and that I had adjusted all the reservations I had made for our trip regarding what I needed and what I did not need. . She then proceeded to tell me thanks for the mistake and for costing us money and hangs up on me. I did not get her name but she sounds like a young woman. I am so glad that I did not go to that hotel, because never would I recommend them after being treated the way I was tonight. If this is the way that she talks to customers, she has no business being in this totally customer service based industry!! …
