Best San Francisco Hotels For Families, Kids, Dogs & More

Below are my recommendations for hotels in San Francisco based on specific criteria such as families, couples, pets, budget hotels, or those looking to avoid downtown/touristy areas. Typing these queries returns an insane number of results and false positives via Google or sponsored ads via booking sites.

That said, be sure to look up conventions and busy holidays as San Francisco hotel rates can definitely be 2-4x (or more) regular prices or completely sold out.

For those that want to consider things like safety, location, business proximity, family activities, dog friendly areas, romantic views or places with good public transportation nearby, this guide is for you.
