This is a great place to stay! The room was so spacious and very clean. The bed was really comfortable and the showers had good water pressure and lots of hot water. The location is ideal and all of the people at the front desk were kind and helpful to me. I will definitely stay here again when I’m in town next time.

This hotel is convenient to Fisherman's wharf and the other north end attractions. Having parking included in the price was a deciding factor. The Castle Inn is a well worn but very clean hotel. I recommend it for the convenience factor and friendly staff.

It is a nicely maintained hotel with clean and quite rooms. There is an elevator so guests don't need to carry luggage upstairs. Except at the moment of check-in, there seems no need to bother the hotel staff.

Parking spaces are tight but parking was available and felt secure. Neighborhood felt safe at night for walking. Rooms were slightly dated but seemed cleaned. Although the room did smell like urine. Ac was very loud.

They let us check in super early (10;30am) as our room had been cleaned ahead of schedule! Also, if you prepaid for the room check out is seamless - you just leave your keycard in the room which is super nice for early morning flights

We had a great stay at the Castle Inn . The room was clean and comfortable one thing I always like is good water pressure and hot water that doesn't take forever to reach the faucet and they delivered . The parking was a big plus . We plan on staying whenever we're in San Francisco.
