“Great location ”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 days ago NEW via mobile

Stayed for 5 nights here in September. Rooms were nice and clean, WiFi worked great and there is free parking. Staff were friendly and helpful. Try and get a room on a higher floor, as we could hear the upstairs guests moving around quite a bit. Not too much of an issue, but may be for some.

“Nice Hotel Rooms”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 days ago NEW

The bad: Very tight Parking. (another user posted the parking lot pic). No elevator, we were on the third floor, family of five. The winding staircase was small and carrying the luggage up three (six) flights of stairs was a chore. We had to send someone for towels/washcloths etc. everyday. A family of five needs more than three towels. We... More

“Pleasant surprise ”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 week ago via mobile

I was shocked at the price of hotels in San Francisco. They all look dated and horrific for the massive price. I don't mind dated and horrific if you pay $40/ night. But $200+ for basic and outdated was a massive shock. This motel was fine. Yes, outside of San Francisco there is no way anyone could charge these prices.... More

Thank you for the review. San Francisco is one of the most expensive cities and our costs are also very high. Also our rates are handled by our rate management company and they do fluctuate according to seasons. What we can do at the property level is improve our service, cleanliness and comfort scores.

“Better than reputation ”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 13, 2016 via mobile

A nice a newly renovated motel. Very nice rooms with all you need from coffeemaker to air conditioning. Comfy but a bit soft beds. Perfect location on Lombard street close to Fishermans Wharf, the bus stop for the Hop on hop off tour busses and other great SF sights. An extra bonus with Lombard Plaza Motel is the free parking.

4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 8, 2016

Lombard Plaza Motel is in a great location - behind a street full of restaurants and shops, stone throw away from Fisherman's wharf and main entertainment hub, but nestled in a quiet area that allows you to enjoy the hustle and bustle, but then you can escape back to your room. Don't be fooled by the outside, it looks like... More

Ours was a last-minute booking during a holiday weekend, and our double queen at Lombard Plaza Motel was one of only a few affordable rooms available that night...AND which offered free parking. We took a chance, and were delighted. The staff was very friendly and helpful and was able... More

5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 29, 2016

This motel doesn't look great from the outside, but our room inside certainly made up for that. It was very clean, comfortable and roomy. We stayed two nights and it was perfect for what we needed. Free parking also helped.

    Staying in Marina District

    Neighborhood Profile
    Marina District
    Beautiful homes, beautiful people, and a beautiful backdrop of the Golden Gate Bridge welcome visitors to the Marina. Originally the location for the Panama-Pacific International Exposition in 1915 (whose remnants can be seen at the Palace of Fine Arts), much of the land was filled and flattened to accommodate a world’s fair. That ample space has given way to a jogger’s paradise at the northern edge of the city. With the picturesque bay setting as its backdrop, it’s no surprise that the area has hosted numerous movie productions. Daytime activities focus on café culture and boutique shopping, while the evenings turn this neighborhood into a party-going hotspot.
