If you have a San Francisco itinerary & want a beautiful ocean escape- THIS IS THE PLACE! Heading south from SF-go 280, then catch Highway 1 to Pacifica. "Rockaway Beach" is 20 minutes & a world away from CITY. Beautiful OCEAN VIEWS can be had (prices vary), but the walk on the beach is RIGHT THERE for free. Rooms are... More

The hotel was your average Best Western but the location was amazing! Right on CA-1, a quick 15 minute drive to downtown San Francisco and right on the water. Also, close to a grocery store and a few restaurants.

I figured the plus meant this Best Western was nicer than most. It was. Very good service and the area you are staying in can't be beat. Beautiful area. The one downside, and we were told this upfront, is that we would be staying in a room with a handicapped bath. We basically were flooding the bathroom with the first... More

I stayed here four nights while visiting my daughter in San Francisco. The room was very clean and comfortable, especially the bed! The room was large with a nice shower, flat screen tv, and desk area. I was on the third floor and had a peek-a-boo view of the ocean. I had not requested an ocean view, as I knew... More

We traveled with our two golden retrievers and were given a great ocean front junior suite that had plenty of room for the doggy beds and all of our gear. Beach right out front was great for an early morning dip. And just to the side of the hotel is a wonderful trail that goes out to the ocean. Bedding... More

I stay at this hotel on business. It is right on the Pacific Ocean and has beach front access. It is 20 minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge and less than 15 from SFO. I can get an ocean view room for less than $150. This morning I had breakfast at Moonrakers the hotel restaurant and watched whales breach in... More

This hotel is in a great spot on the beach. We drove up highway 1 all along the coast and this hotel is as close to the beach as you can get anywhere, period. The partial view room had a pretty decent view. Nice sounds of the waves at night. The room itself was quite nice. Bathroom a bit dated... More

The cove at Pacifica, CA is picturesque and the Best Western Lighthouse Hotel compliments the area. Great setting. We had a 4th floor room and were able to enjoy views of the entire cove, beach, ocean and cliffs. The Moonraker Restaurant in the hotel is exceptional. The views spectacular.
