I recently won a one night stay at Cavallo Point through work and was thoroughly impressed. My husband and I have debated staying here for years, as the nightly rates can be quite expensive. That being said, our stay was truly magical. The rooms sit in a 2 room shared bungalow and were historic with a modern twist. The service... More

Cavallo Point is a great place to relax and absorb the beauty of the SF Bay. There is just one minor problem that the hotel doesn't tell its' hotel customers. The Golden Gate Bridge, which sits at the foot of Cavallo Point, has three fog horns located at center pier and two more at the south tower pier. As the... More

Dear Valued Guest, Thank you for your post. We sincerely appreciate your comments and wanted to address your concerns regarding the fog horns. Currently, we are experiencing mostly sunny weather, as the foggy days are increasingly few and far between. However, I understand that while some guests find the fog horns to be a comforting and soothing sound, other guests... More

I read all of the rave reviews before booking this hotel for my husband and me. Not my experience. Stunning location, awful room, worse parking. After dragging our bags across a long gravel parking lot and a wood-chipped path we then carried the bags upstairs. We were told that one of their many golf carts would assist us, but the... More

This historical property, a former Coast Guard base, has spectacular views of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco Bay and the San Francisco skyline. You can stay in former officers' quarters (we did) or in their newer rooms. The officers' quarters look out over the open Parade Grounds for a sublimely relaxing view. The staff was very attentive and the... More

We treated yourself to a hotel out of town after staying for the first part of our stay in motels. It is a lovely location, isolated with a great view of the golden gate bridge.

I am there every year for a conference and this year we purposely came in a day earlier in order to enjoy the property and it was truly worth it. The rooms are excellent, the food is terrific, and the views are spectacular. Make sure you find your way here!

Great hotel in renovated Officers Quarters on Fort Baker. Spectacular views of San Francisco and Golden Gate Bridge. Hotel offers both historic rooms (in renovated Officers Quarters) or modern rooms. Modern rooms look like a generic hotel from outside. Historic rooms were very interesting and quaint. Renovation was very well done. Murray Circle restaurant is a short walk. Spa and... More

Our recent stay at Cavallo Point is one we will not soon forget. After crossing the Golden Gate Bridge and winding down the road to the hotel, we felt like we had stepped back in time.
