The Orchard Hotel was perfect for us close to the Columbian counsel, whi h we had business with. It was a short walk from the Larkspur ferry terminal. Close to China town and othe great eateries. We would stay here again

    Unless your children are very young (under 8 or 10) expect to be there most of the day. Not of interest for little ones. There are lockers at the entrance for 2quarters each time you open the locker. There is a change machine that provides quarters only. Bring lunch, snacks and water! And kids should dress in layers. There are some areas where they'll work up a sweat.

    I loved the location. It’s literally 2 mins walking from pier 39 and about 5 mins to the exploratorium. Also, the hotel catered to kids. It had a game room, and other fun things for kids to do.
