    Neighborhood
    The Castro
    A flourishing commercial area that acts as San Francisco's LGBT community center and cultural heart, the Castro is a neighborhood welcome to everyone. As one of the first predominantly LGBT neighborhoods in the United States and currently its largest, it remains one of the epicenters of activism in the nation. Grand theaters and glitzy shops now compete with bars and fashionable eateries for attention, drawing visitors from around the world to the bright rainbow flag acting as its beacon.

    Better than home!!!
    Fabulous ambience; warm and welcoming service; and comfortable, quaint surroundings in attentively restored twin, early 20th century mansions. Recommend the place unhesitatingly for business or pleasure whether travelling alone or with a special partner.

    Hello there, My fiancé and I are planning to honeymoon in San Francisco. She wants me to look for quaint B&B type places that have the necessary privacy. Would this be a good place, and if so, is there a particular kind of room you would recommend? Love the pictures! Thanks
    I would agree with WaterBrid. Call the staff who are very accommodating and explain that it's for your honeymoon. I enjoyed my stay there because of the beautiful building , friendly staff and location with plenty of interesting small restaurants within walking distance. Breakfast was good too.

    Is there any long term parking for the night near the guest house? If so where? Thanks! Rohan
    You can park at the guest house's secure parking for around $25 per night if I remember correctly. Book in advance though. Not sure what safety is like for the on street parking.

    Just a suggestion. I have stayed at the Parker Guest House 4 times in the past two years and will continue to do so whenever my wife and I return to San Francisco. I am very impressed by the friendly staff who take professionalism to the highest level. I would like to publicly commend each one of these people but, unfortunately, I didn't get all their names. I'm not good at asking for names while talking to them. Maybe they could wear name tags? Just a thought.
    Hello, I am wanting to go on holiday for a week in San Francisco with my partner. We are from the UK and a lesbian couple. We was wondering is this a gay friendly hotel? Also we're are he best spots to go for drinks and eat? We've read some great reviews saying it is but want to make sure as its our first holiday together. Thanks :)
    Hello There. Honestly, we are the spot for you. We are the top rated gay owned and operated hotel - although now a days our clientele is about 50% main market. Please check out our website for local information on where to go etc. Our amazing staff will also do their best to assist you once you are checked in. Hope to have to opportunity to host you our your visit to San Francisco. Bill & Bob - Owners

    Trip advisor is showing me a great deal for a night at the hotel with a fee of 28 dollars a night but once I go to your website there is no discount. Can you help me with that?
    That price is for a parking space. No such price is available for a room. Best room prices are found on our website. We are offering a winter mid-week promotion for stays up through March 21st. We have a very popular property and hope you will book with us. Thanks.

    "All rooms seem great, however the quieter rooms are towards the back of the property."
    "Higher floors have better view"
    "Rooms at the back are quieter than those at the front. Some rooms are en suite and some are shared bathrooms."
    "Nothing really to avoid but I am used to the main building where the breakfast takes place and the second floor rather than the basement."
    "Back of house would be quiter, but as we had 3 rooms we found side, front, back all well insulated from sound."
