A wonderful little boutique hotel in the heart of Little Italy. We had the one and only first floor room, just off of the main lobby. We were a little concerned that it would be too noisy, but we never heard a thing. The afternoon complimentary wine and snacks were very good, we chose to have breakfast in our room... More

My wife and I stayed at WSI for 3 nights. We chose it because it was close to an apartment which our son and his family had rented for a week. If we return to San Francisco we would definitely stay at WSI. Its location is just great. A relatively short and interesting walk through Chinatown to the Union Square... More

What a pleasant place to stray and so close to everything. You would feel very safe staying alone here with lots of dining options outside the front door. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very nice. Across the street, Washington square park was brimming with activity. In the morning there were many people practicing Tai Chi... More

Thank You so much for taking the time to review us and thank you for pointing out that our room description needed a correction. We changed the wording from inner court yard to light well, even though it is a large open space we want to make sure our guests can rely on our room descriptions being accurate before booking. More

If you are looking for a warm home in a Victorian Villa in San Francisco, at a TOP- location surrounded by nice restaurants, between Fishermans Wharf and Union Square, you should book a couple of nights in Washington Square Inn! We were staying in this wonderfully furnished building at the end of March for 4 nights. Our room was not... More

Our three nights at the Washington Square Inn were totally enjoyable. What a wonderful oasis after a busy day exploring San Francisco. The "happy hour" wine and cheese reception was the perfect way to transition from a busy day to relaxing evening. The staff were friendly and helpful. We stayed in room 11, with a bay window view of Coit... More

Nice location near Coit Tower, walking distance to Fishetmans wharf, North Beach and Chinatown. Helpful staff and nice happy hour. Had an early flight so we missed breakfast. Rooms were very clean and well equipped but small. We had a first floor room with en suite bathroom. The bathroom was clean but tiny and afforded little privacy. Room was fine... More

My husband and I just spent 4 nights at the Washington Square Inn. We were absolutely thrilled with the location, on the beautiful square and in a lively neighborhood. I have stayed Downtown previously in SF and really don't like it. The Inn is charming and everyone on the staff is very friendly and helpful. We got the last room... More

Great location, and a very nice service-minded staff. The breakfast was delicious and so was the afternoon wine and cheese. They also had parking 1 block away. I really recommend this place for couples travelling to San Francisco!

This hotel is in a wonderful location. Walking distance to Fishermans Wharf and the Coit Tower. Staff are excellent. They cannot do enough and with complimentary wine and hors douvres each afternoon the hotel is a very pleasant place to stay. Rooms can be a little small but the hotel is a classic old fashioned inn.

Stayed in the vacation rental for four nights - it's a really great place. Wonderful views and very roomy and well equipped. Only one complaint: the king bed in the master bedroom was quite comfortable but the sofa bed needed the extra foam mattress we found in the closet. With that it was fine, but it was a bit of...
