Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is in a super location and yes, they are very clear there is no air conditioning. The window opens enough to get fresh air. The room was very clean with a spacious closet and a full-size deep bathtub (shower above). And there are two specialty coffee machines so you can make your own mocha, cappuccino or just coffee in the morning. They seem to have fresh cookies almost all day which made it so nice to relax for a few moments before another round of meetings or sightseeing. Despite being on the cable car line, in the heart of the city, my room 504 was exceptionally quiet. Great find! I'd stay here again."

What is the nightly rate for a guest house in San Rafael?

A range of factors can affect nightly rates, such as the location, the breakfast offering, and the range of amenities. Travelers looking for a good deal should consider looking for a midweek stay, as weekend rates at San Rafael guest houses tend to be higher.

What's the difference between a San Rafael guest house and a B&B?
A guest house in San Rafael is typically a larger establishment with more rooms, offering a more hotel-like experience, and may provide additional amenities including luxury bedding. In contrast, a B&B is usually a smaller property that focuses primarily on providing a room and breakfast. A B&B is often more personal, and breakfast is typically included as part of the stay, but other services might be more limited compared to a guest house.
