Top Japantown Hotel Reviews

FOUND Hotel Carlton, Nob Hill

8/10 Good

"Really nice room! Kind staff and felt super safe. The only thing to consider is no parking on the property, but if you're used to SF, that shouldn't be an issue! There are a bunch of overnight parking garages within walking distance. Also, the walls were quite thin, so you can definitely hear into the next room over."
