Family-run motel with free private garages in San Francisco's Marina District
Rooms with Kitchen Facilities and a Courtyard Setting
Rooms at Marina Motel are equipped with coffee makers, refrigerators, and microwaves, with self-catering kitchen facilities available in select units. The motel is arranged around a unique courtyard, providing a quiet retreat in the city. Guests can choose from King Suites, Courtyard Queen Rooms, and Street Facing Queens, each with private bathroom and flat-screen TV.
Free On-Site Parking with Private Garages
Each room at Marina Motel comes with a single locking garage underneath, offering secure and free parking in a city where parking is scarce. The garages are accessible before check-in, making it easy to unload luggage. This setup is especially valuable for guests with cars, as break-ins are common in San Francisco.
Pet-Friendly Accommodations
Marina Motel is located in the most dog-friendly neighborhood of San Francisco and welcomes dogs in rooms that have a kitchen, including the King Suite and Courtyard Queen with Kitchen. The property provides pet baskets and pet bowls, and has a small pet relief area in the backyard. A daily pet fee of $25 is charged for each dog.
Location Near Iconic Attractions and Outdoor Spaces
The motel is less than 2 miles from Fisherman's Wharf and Pier 39, and a 10-minute walk from the Palace of Fine Arts. Guests can walk to Chrissy Fields Beach and the Presidio, with views of the Golden Gate Bridge from nearby walking paths. Chestnut Street, one block away, offers restaurants, bars, and a supermarket for self-catering.
Family-Run Since 1939 with a Home-Like Atmosphere
Marina Motel has been owned and managed by the same family since 1939, offering a personalized, non-corporate experience. The staff can provide insider advice on local spots and help with luggage storage and tour bookings. This long-running family management gives the motel an authentic feel, distinct from chain hotels.
Highlights
Parking: Free private garages under each room
Rooms: Kitchen facilities in select rooms
Pet Policy: Dogs allowed in kitchen rooms with pet amenities
Location: 2 miles from Fisherman's Wharf, walk to Palace of Fine Arts
History: Family-operated since 1939
“My stay was enveloped by a charm I'd rarely encounter elsewhere, with a central courtyard blooming like a hidden garden oasis. The convenience of private garages for each room, along with the genuine warmth of the staff, made navigating the city feel refreshingly straightforward and secure.”
Natalie ParkerManaging Editor at Lakehotels
