Hotel Bohème

$$, North Beach


Fodor's Review:

This small hotel in historic North Beach takes you back in time with cast-iron beds, large mirrored armoires, and memorabilia recalling the Beat generation. Allen Ginsberg stayed here many times and could be seen in his later years sitting in a window, tapping away on his laptop computer. Screenwriters from Francis Ford Coppola's nearby American Zoetrope studio stay here often, as do poets and other artists. Rooms have a bistro table, two chairs, and tropical-style mosquito netting over the bed; bathrooms have cheerful yellow tiles and tiny showers. Rooms in the rear are quieter, especially on weekends. Complimentary sherry is served in the lobby.
