Top Ripley's Believe It Or Not Museum Hotel Reviews

Club Quarters Hotel Embarcadero, San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"very easy check-in. The rooms were very clean, and the beds were comfortable as well."

Stanford Court San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"Had a wonderful stay at the Stanford Hotel in San Francisco. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed, with a cozy bed that made for a great night's sleep. The staff were friendly and attentive, always ready to help with recommendations or requests. The location was convenient, putting us within easy walking distance of great restaurants and local attractions. A great value for the price, and we'd happily stay here again on our next visit to the city."

Argonaut Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We've stayed at The Argonaut a few times now and it's always a pleasant stay. Great location on the waterfront so beautiful views of the Golden Gate and Marin. An In N' Out just a block away for quick, cheap eats and the cable car right there to take you downtown. We found a really reasonable parking garage close by for daily parking. The Blue Mermaid restaurant is also excellent. We love the nautical theme and overall, for the price you pay, it's a great option for San Francisco, if you don't mind staying in the touristy area."
