Fog rolls across the Golden Gate Bridge while cable cars clank up impossibly steep hills lined with candy-colored Victorian houses. At Pier 39, sea lions bark and pose as if auditioning for wildlife documentaries. The Mission's muralists transform walls into canvases while locals debate which taqueria serves the definitive burrito. Alcatraz broods in the bay, its audio tour narrated by former guards and inmates. Golden Gate Park hides surprises around every bend – Japanese gardens, actual bison, and museums where you could happily lose an afternoon. For the best city views, skip the tourist crowds at Lombard Street and head to Twin Peaks, where the whole magnificent bay panorama unfolds at your feet.

LUMA Hotel San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"The property was perfect for our stay! We liked that is was close to many things, our room was clean, parking is a little bit expensive. But overall would recommend this hotel"

Hyatt Regency San Francisco Downtown SOMA

10/10 Excellent

"My only complaint was breakfast options and some of the staff in the coffee shop inside hotel. My overnight oats were inedible and I didn’t feel comfortable returning as the guy serving was really abrupt and seemingly very stressed. As for the hotel location, staff and the room size and view, I can’t fault it! Highly recommend you book a room!"

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We were so lucky to choose the Handlery Hotel on our first visit to San Francisco. The location was perfect! Down the road from every kind of transit & most importantly, steps from the Nintendo Store! We had a two queen suite & to our surprise a sliding glass door that revealed a beautiful view of the city. Not quite a balcony, but very close & we loved it so much. There was even a vanity which came in handy with teenage girls. The hotel itself had two sections and we were in the Premier section. There was two flights of stairs to take with all our luggage & a vintage elevator that no one could figure out how to use, so up the stairs we went. At least at the top we got to walk by the heated, outdoor pool. We didn’t have time to enjoy it, but we saw other guests having a great time. The staff were friendly and polite and brought up extra amenities quickly when asked. We would 100% stay at this hotel again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

FOUND Hotel Carlton, Nob Hill

8/10 Good

"Nice boutique-hotel, good location, close to bus stops or can easily get a Uber. Yes it's close to the Tenderloin neighborhood but I never felt unsafe. Staff was helpful. We appreciated the coffee machine in the lobby. Room was also good overall, spacious and clean would have appreciated and extra chair. A fridge is provided which is a major plus. Shower curtain had littler holes in it. Nothing major but can easily be changes. The bed itself was comfortable and perfectly fine. One small thing I didn’t particularly like was the bedding setup: the comforter was placed between two flat sheets rather than being enclosed in a duvet cover. Overall, I'd say that I recommend this hotel. It's all about managing expectations"

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in San Francisco

Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit San Francisco is during February, November, and December, when hotel prices tend to be lower. For those exploring the city's renowned landmarks, rich history, and vibrant cultural scene, a stay of at least 2 to 3 days is recommended. This budget-friendly timeframe allows visitors to enjoy attractions such as museums, architectural marvels, theatres, the historic Chinatown, art galleries, scenic tours, and shopping areas, all of which offer great value for money. Additionally, prices for accommodation may drop during these months, making it an even more enticing option for travellers on a budget.
Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals to San Francisco, visit the Deals or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted rates on nearby hotels as your travel date approaches. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications from Hotels.com to stay updated on flash sales and exclusive promotions, helping you secure the best hotel deal. Additionally, Smart Shopping is a handy comparison tool within the app that allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you're informed if rooms become available or prices drop for cheap hotels in San Francisco.
Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your dates could help you save on your stay in a San Francisco hotel. For those seeking distinctive accommodations, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised experience and potentially better value.

Consider your location: Hotels near the city centre usually tend to be more expensive, but thanks to San Francisco's outstanding public transport links, you may discover a more affordable independent hotel situated further out that remains well connected.
