Top Marin County Civic Center Hotel Reviews

AC Hotel San Rafael Downtown

8/10 Good

"The property is very accommodating. The rooftop bar offers beautiful views, great drinks, and good food. Our hotel room was a bit noisy. Felt like the people above us were having a dance party. Otherwise, it was a very pleasant place to stay."

"great property with great views. Parking is a little tough"

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."
