Mayflower Hotel 8.7
Lower Nob Hill

Family-owned since 1929, this modest hotel in Lower Nob Hill is a 5-minute walk from a stop on the California Street cable-car line traveling to the Financial District and Chinatown, and a 7-minute walk from the shops, galleries and eateries in Union Square. Casual rooms, some offering city views and/or hardwood floors, feature free Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs and ceiling fans, as well as desks and walk-in closets. All rooms come equipped with microwaves and minifridges, and some have kitchenettes. A 2-night stay is required. Daily continental breakfast and on-site parking are free. The 6 floors are accessed by elevators original to the hotel.

What Guests Are Saying

This hotel is about expectations. Don't expect a 5* corporate hotel. This hotel feels like you are staying in someone's clean but dated home. It is an older building with lots of charm (the elevators are very fun) but is well maintained. The new owners took over from a family who has passed the hotel on through generations since it opened in 1929. The new owners have made some updates (ie faster Wifi). My one complaint is the walls are very thin. Although my neighbours weren't too loud, my room was by the elevators and I could hear when they were running. Overall, it wasn't too disruptive. The breakfast is basic but it's enough to get you going. Given the price and market (a tourist hotel) I was very happy with my stay and would stay here again.
