Top Mission San Rafael Arcangel Hotel Reviews

The Evergreen

8/10 Good

"Rather expensive rooms for the location. Very busy road next to hotel"

Marin Hilltop Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff our fantastic"

SureStay Hotel by Best Western San Rafael

8/10 Good

"The motel is in a light industrial area of San Raphael and though dated, the property has been cleanly maintained. Room was clean & bug-free with a nice coffee shop across the street. It’s about the best price for the proximity to Marin & SF. It appears safe but I wouldn’t go walking around after dark. Only complaint: the body wash dispenser was empty, w no bar soap either (luckily I had some in my bag). This place meets my minimal acceptable standard for a motel room."

North Bay Inn

8/10 Good

"The staff was helpful. The rooms were clean."

Courtyard San Francisco Larkspur Landing/Marin County

10/10 Excellent

"Great stop over for our family."

Panama Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is located in a quiet neighborhood just a short walk from the peaceful Albert Park in San Rafael. The room was clean and comfortable and the staff are very kind. It is a great place to take the time to rest and relax on a long trip."
