We recently spent 4 nights at The Parsonage and had a terrific time. The place is gorgeous and the hosts are wonderful--very friendly, interesting,funny and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. As late risers, we appreciated the civilized serving window of 8-10am. Internet access easy. The perfect place to base ourselves for this short trip to SF. Comfortable, beautiful digs.

My stay was only a short one - two nights and a day - but I was made to feel welcome immediately. I was given a tour of the beautiful multi-storey terrace house and shown the room that had been made up for me. It was private and had a luxurious bathroom attached too. Accessing wi-fi Internet was not a... More

My partner and I spent five nights at The Parsonage Bed & Breakfast and were delighted with our hosts and the surroundings. The house, built in 1880, has been beautifully restored and is filled with interesting art and antiques. Joan and John, the proprietors, are very smart, charming, cultivated people, and they tend to attract the same type guests. Lavish... More

Yes, the street noise is a bit loud and the location is a bit edgy, but the home that Joan and John operate creates such an inviting atmosphere that I found myself lingering in the living room having a glass of wine and talking with the assorted guests. The anitque clocks and operating fireplace make this so cozy. It felt... More

We stayed at the Parsonage over two weekends surrounding our trip to Hawaii. The home is period perfect in every detail and our room was comfortable and lovely. The breakfasts prepared by the owners were scrumptious. The owners will recommend restaurants to dine in the nearby gourmet haven in the Hayes Valley, a few blocks away. This location is central...

Judging by past reviews (which is how I found this place), I think everything's probably been said about this place -- it doesn't get much better than this. Will briefly summarize the aspects we (my wife and myself, mid-thirties) liked: (i) very interesting (well travelled) and hospitable hosts, with very good suggestions on where to eat, drink and go in...
