Top Gerstle Park Hotel Reviews

Marin Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The best thing about this place is the family that owns and runs it. This friendly family keeps it well run, clean, and does their best to accommodate early arrivals. They make their guests feel welcome. We feel quite safe and secure staying here, as it's not a large, impersonal place. If you had a problem, I think there would be always someone around to help you resolve it. Car parking is directly across from your room, which makes moving suitcases and other belongings into one's room so easy. The motel is close to restaurants and shops of Central San Rafael, and near Highway 101--so you are likely to hear traffic noise during commuter times. Take earplugs if you are a light sleeper. The room is not large, so bear this in mind if you need a lot of space, say you want to do mat exercises, practice your golf stroke, or whatever! Fresh coffee is available at reception each morning, but there is also a coffeemaker in the room, as well a mini fridge and microwave oven. There are a few patio tables and chairs outside, but not many."

Marin Suites Hotel

8/10 Good

"I only stayed for one night, the bed was hard and the mattress was part the time it needed to be replaced. Some of the furniture was just battered and looked like it could use a refresh. It was very cheap for a one night stay though and served it's purpose since I really only needed it to stay the night in. It was quiet and had a nice area around the pool to relax if that was what I was there to do."

Panama Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This place always amazes me how the staff can be so courteous and never miss a beat. Parking is easy and walking distance from downtown San Rafael and the Marin County Transit Center. I enjoy that once I park my car I can walk wherever I want to go. And the hotel is located in a peaceful and quiet neighborhood."

Beautiful 1-Bedroom Unit - Quiet Neighborhood & Close Access to Vibrant Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was absolutely lovely! Everything was new, clean and lots of extras were included. Our host, Melanie, was fantastic. :) The pictures well represented the rental. It was an EXCELLENT location. Perfect for trips North to whale watch or South to Muir Woods and downtown San Francisco. It is important to remember that San Francisco is in the hills, and this is too. The area was nice, quiet and relaxing. We were able to enjoy quiet after our busy days of adventure. Highly recommend. :)"

Simply marvelous 2 bedroom with kitchenette, grilling patio and grand balcony

10/10 Excellent

"Such a lovely view - drinking coffee on the good sized balcony felt like I was up in a tree house amidst the greenery. In reality you are less than a mile walk down hill to the vibrant San Rafael Downtown. The host responded quickly when I had walking direction questions. The shower was a dream. The bed was very comfortable and I had lots of room to make myself at home. Street parking was easy during the day but a bit challenging coming home after evening outings. I would totally come back next time I’m seeing friends in Marin easy to navigate to from the freeway."
