The hotel does the basics quite well but do not expect too much. The location is a plus, quite central, some nearby shops and reasonably priced cafes and about a 15-20 minute walk to Fisherman's Wharf. Breakfast can be a bit sparse and you grab and go, either sitting outside if there is room or take things back to your... more

Our family stayed here for three days and have mixed feelings about the hotel. We loved the location, it was off the beaten path, but close to Union street which had lots to look at and eat. The marina district was fun to get to know and we enjoyed our time away from the hotel. The hotel recently (I guess)... more

Stayed at Hotel Del Sol based on TA recommendations and one from a friend. Very nice, quaint motor lodge, very colorful, I almost felt as if we were in another time/place than San Francisco! Our room was nice for a family of 5, convenient to ride the bus all around, great thai restaurant behind the hotel. Very nice bar b... more

If you are accustomed to staying at 4 or 5 star hotels, this isn't the place for you. If you are looking for a clean and spacious room in a quiet motor inn for a reasonable rate, this is a good bet. Our family of 4 stayed in a suite - bedroom and living room with a pullout sofa. The... more

We were guests at the Del Sol 6/20 - 6/23, 2008. Overall, we liked this hotel and would recommend it. The location is terrific for touring San Francisco by cable car, by foot or by the MUNI. The complimentary BBQ the evening of our arrival was a HUGE plus as was the free parking on premises. This hotel is kid-friendly... more

We stayed two nights at the Hotel del Sol in the Marina district of San Francisco. It was the perfect place for our family. The hotel is one of those true motels built around a motor court. It has been updated with vibrant colors and basic but comfortable amenities. For us the location was ideal. Once we pulled into our... more

Five of us stayed here in 2 rooms. Two of us were 70 years old at the time of the trip. I would not book them here again. Although there is an elevator, there are still stairs that have to be negotiated once you exit the elevator, regardless of where your room is. This was difficult for the older travelers... more

They went above and beyond what they needed to for under 200 dollars in San Fran. 7 minutes you were at the water. We stayed here to compete in the Alcatraz Triathlon and thought it was a great location. The only issue is the rooms are open to the outside with people walking by. First night we were awakened frequently... more

We just completed a road trip through California traveling down the coast with our 3 kids. We all loved the Hotel Del Sol. We appreciated the convenient parking this hotel offers. Traveling with kids, I appreciated having a door to our bedroom. We enjoyed the clean room and colorful decor. I highly recommend purchasing a City Pass which allows free... more
