Hayes Valley Inn

Hayes Valley Inn is an inexpensive and friendly small hotel, nestled in the heart of San Francisco's charming Hayes Valley. It's a neighborhood known for its fine restaurants, boutique shops and art galleries.

Morning foghorns and seagulls weave the magic of the City as you walk to the nearby Civic Center Plaza which contains our Opera, the Symphony and Ballet, City Hall, new Asian Art Museum and architecturally acclaimed Public Library.

We are close to all public transportation, making it an easy reach to Chinatown, Pacific Bell Park for sports events and Golden Gate Park with its tranquil Japanese Tea Garden.

Hayes Valley Inn guests enter a homey atmosphere where they can get to know other guests, as well as the owners.

Breezy, the owner's cocker spaniel, is there most days of the week visiting with the staff and the guests. Homo sapiens are her very favorite beings.

Most of our guests are repeat guests who consider the Hayes Valley Inn their "home away from home."
