Red Victorian Inn

Something Different in San Francisco

I stayed here in June 2005 and thought it was really amazing. It's a quaint little B&B where each room is done up in a different style all kind of related to the 1960's/hippies generally. And I don't mean dodgy decor...I stayed in the Butterfly Room, pretty in blue, with giant butterflies hanging from the ceiling. I don't think any of the rooms have an ensuite bathroom but all the bathrooms were very clean and had no qualms about sharing them.

Breakfast which is a muffins and bagels type affair can be accompanied by a lively discussion from the owner Sami Sunchild. You can choose to get involved or not but it's certainly a different way to start your morning.

It's also in a great area - there are some excellent shops (clothes and food) up and down the street and a great Cuban/fusion restaurant, i have forgotten the name but litereally if you come out of the B&B and turn left and keep walking, it's about 3 blocks down, and painted in bright colours - amazing food.

Great option in Haight

I've stayed here a couple of times and it's very handy, well run and pleasant - if a little jarring in its 60s sensibility after a long haul flight!

Unique Quality: Individual rooms have themes - Japanese Tea Garden, Summer of Love, etc. The world's problems are solved over the breakfast.

• Opinion of Price: about average

A Blast from the Past

I haven't stayed here but I know this B & B by reputation, as well as the general neighborhood (Haight-Ashbury) and I can strongly recommend it to anyone who is visiting S.F. for the first time. It seems to be ideal for the free-minded and independent traveller, and is well-connected to the downtown area by public transportation, so you don't absolutely need a car here.

Bed & Breakfast

Located on Haight near Golden Gate park. It is a very nice, relaxing place to stay and meet new people. Each room has a theme, with a shared bathroom on each level.

Unique Quality: There is one warning though: you may get an "interesting" feature in your room depending on the theme.

• Opinion of Price: N/A
