The Quirkiest Hotels in San Francisco
San Francisco never played by the rules. So why should her hotels offer the norm? Here's our favorite unique properties that throw in a dash of that particular SF quirkiness that makes folks fall in love.
Carriage Inn
Why it made the list
Each room of this budget property pays homage to a classic SF character. Whether you're staying in at Robin Williams, Frank Chu (a notable SF sign-bearer at most every event), or Lawrence Ferlinghetti, you can learn a bit about the city's characters.
Hotel Zetta
Why it made the list
Plinko does not just exist on the Price is Right. Now this SoMa property offers guests a chance at this emblematic game show challenge to win hotel merch. Add in a lobby filled with cooperative games and an irreverent spirit and you can feel the funkiness oozing from this SF hipster fave.
Mystic Hotel
Why it made the list
The hotel's art curator selects a notable local artist to take over the public spaces every third month. The result is a rotating exhibit of a variety of artistic creations. Se sure to check out the large photos in the back of the restaurant for a kick.
Hotel des Arts
Why it made the list
Who says budget travelers don't get to stay in the cool hotels? SF's coolest hotel is geared towards those without an expense account. Graffiti lines the walls. Murals populate sleeping quarters. Who ever thought bedding down in a gallery could be so affordable?
