The wind is one of the oldest forms of power. Dutch Windmill is a fantastic example of how this natural source of energy has been effectively harnessed.

This wind-driven milling structure is one of the best free attractions in Golden Gate. If you'd like to adventure beyond Dutch Windmill, we can also recommend Pier 39, Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz Island.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,810 reviews)

The room is in good condition. The staff is good, but my only note is the garage so if we are outside and and we arrive to the hotel. We have to get up of the car and go inside to the hotel and let them know that we arrive and then we go back to our car then we go to the garage to park our car. this is kind of exhausting other than that everything is good.
