Do not book room #111. Next to suite and walls are paper thin!!!

Very nice and helpful hotel personnel

We had a nice stay here. Staff very friendly. However, walls paper thin. I recommend getting a top floor.

Good hotel in a good neighborhood, nothing special but adequate for the rate.

A great place to stay for the money and I will definitely stay again! The room was large, very clean and had a microwave and fridge. The bed was comfy enough for even a picky person like me! The location is very good for sightseeing - local bus runs nearby and the famous Powell and Hyde Street Cable Car line is only 2 blocks away, so getting around is very easy. Free parking is a huge bonus in a place like San Francisco where most hotels charge an additional 25 - 40 dollars (or more) per night. The front desk was exceptionally helpful and cheerful.

This hotel was in a great, safe location. I was impressed the moment I walked in my room. It was very clean and smelled good. I didn't know what to expect after reading what seemed like thousands of scary reviews on hotels in San Francisco! The ONLY draw back is the view, because there is none. But if you go out on the balcony and stand on your tippy toes, you can see the Golden Gate Bridge!

I should have gotten the name of the "VERY" helpful and friendly desk clerk so that he could get KUDOS for his willingness to map out directions to to places that we wanted to go. Also, the description states "continental" breakfast but it was more than just the average pastry and coffee. They had assorted granola bars, Yoplait yogurt, fresh fruit, and lots of different pastries. Also, the rooms were extremely clean and very roomy. I stayed with my mother-in-law, niece, and daughter and we never felt cramped. Free parking was also a plus. Due to my little girl being in the modeling business I am a frequent visiter to SF, I stay at lots of different hotels depending on the price and I certainly stay at this one again.

We enjoyed our stay at Castle Inn. Our room was very clean and so was the rest of the hotel. It seemed to be in a good area. The check-in clerk was nice enough to accomodate us with a king bed instead of the queen that we booked. He also showed us all the good areas of San Francisco on a map in a tourist booklet that he let us have as well as showing us what areas we should avoid(very helpful). The price we paid for the night was very well worth the stay. The bathroom was spotless with a great shower head. The towels were just the right size. There was a heat lamp in the bathroom. The television had alot of channels and there was an electric fan in the room. The heater kept the room nice and warm for our February stay. The room also had large mirrors and large windows. We will recommend this Hotel.

Free parking, but it can be tight in some places with a large car; free continental breakfast; helpful and friendly front desk; got what I paid for; very comfortable bed; rooms not as big as picture says, but big enough;

The hotel was clean, comfortable and well-located in the city with an interesting neighborhood surrounding it. My only complaint was with the hotel staff on checking in. They were rude and insulting. I will probably not stay there again for that reason.

Hotel stay was Okay, our card got "demagnatized" at 3am. We had to wake up the owners, they were not too pleased. Also should I mention that the housekeeping worker opened our door at 8am while we where still sleeping in bed! Would not recommend

Very nice hotel for the price. The best thing was the free parking unlike others that charge about $40. My wife thought she saw a ghost in the room but I think she was too tired. Would really recommend.

Great room for the money

price is good, easy to get everywhere, but room needed some maintenance. We had an electrical outlet that was practically hanging out of the wall, and my parents room had one broken heater and an ancient in-wall heater that had no thermostat. Clean though, and good location.

Very convenient location with good eating places near by. The free parking is great. Breakfast is also more than just a danish and coffee. Very clean and practical hotel.

Good clean room with a great location. Good surrounding restaurants.

Bring sleeping pills and earplugs... the street noise never stops. We were in the room overlooking the street- maybe if you had a room farther back it wouldnt be so bad. Other than that it was o.k., your basic no-frills motel.

I was really satisfied not only for the hotel rating but also for the great position.

Although it seems like a throwback to the old days of mom and pop motels, the Castle Inn was comfortable and located in a decent area (Russian Hill) of San Francisco. Don't expect anything fancy. San Francisco is a very expensive city and the room rate was in the middle of the pack. For the money we were satisfied with the comfort of our room and the courtesy of the owners. Cabs are plentiful and for just a few dollars we were able to venture to Fisherman's Wharf, Chinatown or practically anywhere else.

It is a older hotel, but it was in a way expected, given the location. San Francisco downtown, after all, is an older city. And it does offer great location, service and very friendly staff. Room was very clean. Again, can not say enough of their staff. The lady was extremely helpfull, giving us tips for the local landmarks, restaurants and things to do and places to see. Me and my wife absolutely loved it. Without a doubt, we will be back to the this hotel.

I saw fairly good reviews for this hotel which is why I chanced it, plus it was close to the event I came to town for. The room looked like it had recently been remodeled, and was nice - and very clean. The size of the room and the bathroom were surprisingly large for what I'm used to in San Francisco! Last, but not least was the free WiFi in the room. In 75-90% of the hotels I've stayed in over the past 6 months, the advertised "free WiFi" was either non-existent, or so weak it wasn't worth trying. The WiFi at Castle Inn was consistently strong my entire stay of two nights. The only negative thing I noticed were some noisy neighbors next to and above me - but not the hotel's fault for rude people. I would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay at the Castle Inn. The hotel was very clean, reasonably priced, and the staff was extremely helpful. The hotel looks a bit seedy from the outside but the neighborhood is safe and quiet. Our room was very comfortable and the hotel was walking distance (approx 1 mile) from Chinatown, Union Square, Fisherman's Wharf, and other attractions. Overall, a wonderful experience.

Hotel is approx. 1950's design but well maintained and clean. Only complaint was the use of the "typical" hotel towel, too small and rough. Other than that, it's a good deal for the area.

Friendly staff, very quiet area, very clean room. TV remote not functioning, no channel guide. Security could be an issue as all rooms are open to outside. Nice neighborhood, though. Convenient to all public transportation. Good restaurants within walking distance.

We had not been to San Francisco in over 40 years. We were surprised by the value for our money and the excellent information from the staff. We were givenbetter information than a travel agent could have supplied. we want to go back and stay there again, LONGER. The rooms were satisfactory but we were not in them much. We used every minute seeing the city. The staff was excellent.

The hotel was in an excellent location and made it very easy to access the city. The room was good for the money and the free internet and breakfast made it a wonderful value. It was generally quiet with very little street noise, the only complaint would be that the pillows were small and a bit hard. What made this hotel the one we will return to is the service... the staff was wonderful! Excellent! Incredibly helpful, friendly and wonderful.... the girl behind the desk drew out maps and directions for us, even calling transit authorities to make sure she was sending us on the best route. She reserved wine country tours for us and made sure to knock on our door because the phone had not been working well the night before and she wanted to be sure we got our wake up call. We would go back again :)

The small staff was friendly and quite helpful. The room was clean and the surrounding neighborhood was quite charming with many nice restaurants within a few blocks. It was about a 10 minute taxi ride to the main business district - I will stay there again.

Very spacious room and clean. Cute surrounding neighborhood, with good shopping close by. VERY helpful staff at front desk. A wealth of good and helpful information. We recomend it !

The Castle Inn offers great accomodations for your dollar. Friendly staff and the rooms are always clean, and for the most part large enough for most family's especially if you can get one of the front rooms overlooking the street which we like. Call ahead as they are the first to go. Can't beat the location either. We were very satisfied and plan on staying at the Castle on future trips.

Hotel front desk was very courteous and helpful. Very nice location, close to bus stops and cable cars. The neighborhood was very safe. The room was spacious and clean. The free parking is a nice perk if you have a car. I would stay here again.

Versa was amazing! She pointed out all the great sites and was able to tell us exactly how to get there, where to eat, everything! It was almost like having your very own guide to the area. She was great and friendly and we felt like we had known her for years!! THANKS VERSA - YOU'RE AWESOME! :)

Comfortable and very quiet. The front desk staff provided very helpful suggestions on restaurants, sightseeing and getting around the city.

This has to be one of the best hotels I've ever stayed in...ever. First off, we arrived at the hotel 4 hours early and the desk clerk made a valiant attempt at getting us in our room early. She didn't have a room available at the time, so she allowed us to store our bags while we went to have some lunch. Secondly, the very same desk clerk provided us with a map of the area and gave us directions to most of the highlights in the area, she even warned us of areas to avoid. It's the kind of service you would expect at a 4 or 5 star hotel...she went above and beyond the call of duty. Simply amazing! Thirdly, the bed we slept in that night was perhaps the most comfortable bed we've ever slept in. The room also came with a fridge/freezer combo and a microwave (which we didn't use, but had we stayed for more than one night they would have come in very handy). Overall, this was one a great hotel which we will definitely be staying in the next time we're in San Francisco!

Owners (a husband and wife, I believe) were very friendly and helpful. Rooms were very clean and the price and location were both perfect for our needs. Plenty of free on-site parking. Our stay was perfect and I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone.
