Top Camera Obscura Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"The best of the seven hotels we stayed in on our West Coast road trip. Amazing breakfast, super helpful team of staff, perfect nights sleep... great location away from the main city centre."

Stanyan Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"We stayed in one of the suites for a few days. The staffs were very helpful and friendly. Rooms are clean, but the building, walls, doors, windows and carpet need some upgrades. The hotel is in a great location where you can walk safely to parks, stores and restaurants. The free breakfast and wines hour were great."

Geary Parkway Motel At Mine Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at Geary Parkway Motel was a solid experience. The staff was fantastic—Vijay handled our check-in and check-out, making the whole process an absolute breeze. He was welcoming, efficient, and set a great tone for the trip. The room itself was exceptionally clean, and the bed and pillows were super comfy. It was the perfect place to crash after a long day of exploring. My only real heads-up is that our room faced the street, so it did get noisy with traffic at times. If you're a light sleeper, I'd suggest grabbing some earplugs or requesting a room away from the street. Overall, it's a great, comfortable spot in SF with excellent service. We would definitely stay here again! great location ....close enough to Golden gate park too"

622- 1 bedroom 1 bathroom suite with TV, Private Bath & Kitchenette

10/10 Excellent

"I was in town for a series of tests at UCSF. This little place was quiet and cozy and so clean. We slept well and walk around the park and even to the hospital a few times. Grateful to be abler to stay so close."
