I don't have much to say about this motel as I mainly slept through my stay, but it was sufficient. The area was quite nice with an awesome coffee shop right around the corner, and you're pretty much in the middle of it all. The room was about the size of a shoebox, but as mentioned I didn't pay much... More

We originally checked into a 'sister' hotel but after a sleepless night we asked to be moved to another room. We were immediately offered a room at the Nob Hill which was close by. We jumped at the offer. The hotel is in a quiet road with little traffic. I was a little alarmed to see a building site opposite... More

My parents stayed at this hotel over Easter weekend in 2013. Unfortunately, they did not leave as happy customers. First of all, the rate was astronomical for what this hotel offers - it's dirty, old and outdated. However, they were able to overlook that for the location near family. Unfortunately, it didn't end there. On the second night of their... More

On January ninth, I reserved the Family Suite for the three of us and three members of my sister's family to share for several nights in April.

If you're driving, if you have a couple a kids, if you only plan on sleeping there to have a landing spot in San Francisco this is a nice place. I almost took a picture of the super dirty bathroom fan filter then I noticed the ceiling fan above the little kitchenette area was the same and decided to mention... More

We stayed at the Nob Hill Motor Inn in San Francisco for 3 nights in early March of 2013. Overall it was a very good experience. The room was nice and the bed was awesome. I haven't slept that good in a long time. The TV was huge and worked great. The weather was a bit chilly so we used... More

We stayed here for 1 night in transit and it was a very comfortable room with a King Bed, walk in robe, and large bathroom. Free wifi was available and there was a coffee maker. There was also a refrigerator. Our room overlooked the street, but we heard nothing. Good eateries were within walking distance, and downtown, about 20 minutes... More

Hotel was clean and reasonably close to the major SF attractions - cable car stop is only a short walk away. The hotel had the added bonus of free parking which is very expensive in central SF. Mariana was exceptionally helpful and informative - would definitely stay there again when in SF.

Without a doubt this hotel is the best deal in San Francisco. The rooms are very clean and up to date. The staff are so accommodating and nice.
