Best Western San Francisco Hotel Reviews

South of Market / SOMA Hotels

The following Best Western hotels are located in the South of Market (SOMA) area near SF's bustling streets and freeways. These Best Western hotels are convenient to nightclubs, trendy restaurants, and Union Square. Hotels in this area typically sell for discounted rates as compared with the main Union Square hotels.

America's Best Value Inn - SoMA - South of Market - Great value-priced chain for budget travelers very close to nightlife, restaurants, and a reasonable trip to Union Square shopping. Basic accomodations at a great price.

Best Western Americania

121 Seventh Street between Howard and Mission
$99/night for 143 rooms with $15 parking, swimming and marketed for families.

N. writes, "...This hotel was perfect for us in many ways but also had a couple of drawbacks. The staff couldn't have been more helpful during our visit and everyone was more than friendly. They provided information about sites to see and events to take part in. We also heard them speaking to guests in four different languages while we were there.

We wouldn't recommend the hotel restaurant though, as it was overpriced with a built in 15% tip for added insult. The quality of the food (we had breakfast the morning of our departure) was nothing to write home about. One nice feature the hotel provided was the covered parking. Many of the hotels in San Francisco either don't offer parking or charge incredibly high prices for it. Another treat was the swimming pool, which like everything else in the hotel was meticulously clean and tidy. A most noticeable surprise was how quiet the room was at night.

Also, the BART subway and MUNI bus stops are only 2 blocks away on Market. This brings up the only bad part about staying at the Americania. The Americania is located near 6th Street where a large number of homeless people and addicts tend to congregate. During the day it wasn't an issue to walk north toward Union Square but we didn't attempt it during the evening. All told we wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Americania but would recommend using a taxi to reach a better neighborhood before heading out on foot..."

Best Western Carriage Inn

140 Seventh St. between Howard and Mission
$114/night + $15 for parking for 48 rooms (some with fireplaces)
L.S. checked out the Carriage Inn: "At a reasonable price and within walking distance of Moscone it made a good combination except for the preponderance of drunks after dark... but all in all pretty secure."
Marketed as "romantic" with free breakfast and evening sherry.

The Good Hotel

112 Seventh St. between Howard and Mission
$114/night + $15 for parking. The Good Hotel has 79 newly refurbished, trendy rooms and is dedicated to philanthropy. It's quite a unique hotel from the Joie de Vivre chain.

Bay Bridge Inn

966 Harrison Street - Free Parking and WiFi Internet Access in SOMA
Robyn writes, "After I checked in and saw the room, I immediately went and booked a different place. While the hotel's location is pretty convenient -- walking distance to downtown/union square -- the place was just gross. Bedding and floors were stained... there was someone's hair stuck to the towels... the remote controlled t.v. had no remote... etc. Do not stay here unless you have to! There was no charm to this place whatsoever, just convenience and a low price tag ($85/night -- included parking and local phone calls). You're better off finding a funky B&B for that price."
