Back to San FranciscoFamily-Friendly Hotels

Argonaut Hotel -- Not only is it near all the funky kid fun of Fisherman's Wharf and the National Maritime Museum, but this bayside hotel, a winner for the whole family, also has kid-friendly perks like the opportunity for each child to grab a gift from the hotel's "treasure chest."

Comfort Suites -- Enough pay cable channels to keep you and your kids glued to the TV set for an entire day, and a pull-out sleeper sofa in addition to a king-size bed make this an attractive option for families.

Cow Hollow Motor Inn & Suites -- Two-bedroom suites allow kids to shack up in style instead of camping on the pull-out couch.

Handlery Union Square Hotel -- Never mind that it's been completely renovated. The real kid-friendly kickers here are the adjoining rooms in the "newer" addition; a heated, clean, outdoor pool; and the adjoining restaurant, The Daily Grill, which offers the gamut of American favorites.

Hotel Del Sol -- It's colorful enough to represent a Crayola selection, but tots are more likely to be impressed by the in-room CD player and VCR and the toys available at the courtyard pool.

The Maxwell Hotel -- The colorful environs of this "theater Deco meets Victorian" style hotel are only half the reason kids will get a kick out of a stay here. Added bonuses are a VIP kids program, which includes a second, adjoining room at half the regular price.

The Phoenix Hotel -- If you want to up your cool factor with the little ones, check them into this ultra-hip hotel. So long as you don't mind the hipsters who frequent this place and its popular nightspot, the Bambuddha Lounge, kids will love the funky retro vibe and the courtyard pool.

San Francisco Airport North Travelodge -- It's nothing fancy, but if you've got an early flight out, want to stay near the airport, and don't want to rent an extra room to accommodate the little ones, this place (with pull-out couches in 20 out of 199 rooms) is a good bet.

Stanyan Park Hotel -- Plenty of elbowroom and a half-block walk to Golden Gate Park's Children's Playground make this a prime spot for crashing family style. But the biggest bonuses are the suites, which come with one or two bedrooms, a full kitchen, and a dining area.

Westin St. Francis -- A classic San Francisco hotel down to its hospitality, the Westin welcomes the little ones with fun gifts and free drink refills at its restaurants.
