to get started.

This is a lovely B&B. Two houses with a lovely garden between with several private sitting areas. Was a little concerned when we were escorted to the basement but the window was large and there was no sense we were in the basement. And the large window looked onto a lovely piece of garden. All Staff were very friendly and helpful. Wine social every evening at 5:30 was an added bonus which we enjoyed two nights with lively conversation with other guests from around the world. We also appreciated access to tea and hot chocolate in the evening. And finally the added touch of umbrellas for our use was so appreciated given the very rainy days we had here. This is the place to stay in San Fran.

Alan, Canada

The gardens are beautiful and a calm antidote to the city. They face East-West so they catch the sun at all times of day. There are multiple interior common areas that are pleasant for reading, having a glass of wine, or meeting up with friends. The continental breakfast was delicious and it included varied offerings. The attention to detail is obvious throughout.

Deborah, United States of America

This report is based on past stays. The Parker House was wonderfully flexible when my plans had to change for this recent trip, and they kindly moved my reservation to a new date, even though I had not booked directly through them.

Roberta, United States of America

Delicious breakfast and nice wine social in the evenings! Backyard is beautiful too!

Brian, United States of America

It is a beautiful place, close to everything. The gardens were an oasis of calm where you could escape the excesses of the Castro. Staff super attentive, comfortable rooms and a great choice for breakfast. Probably one of the nicest places I have ever stayed.

Joanne, United Kingdom

Meticulous cleanliness. Staff very helpful. Location unsurpassed. Most touristic highlights are within a short bus or tram ride away. A car in SF is more of a hindrance than an advantage, and it is not needed. Good choice of restaurants and cafes in the neighborhood, although some close relatively early.

Drmoto, United States of America

The property is a little island of tranquility right in the heart of the fabulous Mission District. Walk up to Market, walk a half block to Dolo Park, walk 2.5 blocks to Tartine (yum). We loved the two houses and the lovely New Orleans-esque courtyards and gardens between the two houses. Our room was on the front of one house but we slept right through the trolleys. Great view of the Mission High School fields across the street--and out across the city.

Awims, United States of America

Everything the room was clean and very quiet and perfect

John, United Kingdom

Charming, friendy and the extra little details made the stay memorable.

Diane, United States of America

The staff was extremely friendly. They went the extra mile, upgraded my room, brought me a Pellegrino when they saw me sitting out side reading! The breakfast was good and fruit, coffee and tea were available all the time.

Nothing - I thought it was brilliant and I would definitely stay there again.
Everything was fantastic - from the great welcome on arrival to the check out on the last day. Breakfast was lovely and relaxing and much appreciated. The rooms were super comfortable, bright, clean and airy. I'd especially like to commend the staff - everyone went out of their way to be helpful. I loved it!

Two lovely early 1900 houses run together as one high end B & B. Lovely gardens. Included breakfast was very good. Rooms comfortable and homely. Late check out was a boon. Staff very helpful. Location close to the Mission district superb.
