San Raphael is a sweet little stop to stay on your way to visit Mt. Tamalpais. There are good restaurants within walking distance from the new Marriott in downtown. It is a quieter destination than the bigger cities like San Francisco or Berkley, which is nice. I highly recommend Il David to grab dinner.

The room was spacious and had great air conditioning. They had blackout drapes and a nice tub. I loved the shampoo and conditioner that was already in refillable dispensers in the tub/shower area. They also had every channel I could ask for with the TV and I was able to access my netflix as well. I will stay there again. Great value.MelindaUnited States - 8.0Scored 8.0

San Rafael was a great location for our mission of tracing ancestors in Marin County. It was also easy to get to the San Francisco bay area and beyond. Plenty of shops within a short drive. We even took a trip out to Napa while there.

There are lots of restaurants on the main street. There are things to be seen in the surrounding area, but I have seen them before. This trip was to see people. I ate at IHOP, great friendly spot open until 10 pm. Also Phyliss's Giant Burgers - and that's no lie. I also had a very good crepe at the Crepevine Restaurant, which had a large selection of crepes, omelettes, sandwhiches and more.

- From SAR 500.79 per night7.0Scored 7.0GoodRated good· 281 reviewsLocation to town and the surrounding neighborhood were wonderful. Within walking distance to grocery store and multiple restaurants. Hotel itself was quite unique and filled with interesting artwork and furnishing details. Comfortable bed and quiet at night. WiFi internet connection was strong and tv reception good. Common areas for relaxing outside of room available although RAIN during my stay precluded use. Restaurant not open during my stay but dining area very comfortable for minimal breakfast items in the morning.
LeeUnited States - From SAR 483.09 per night7.8Scored 7.8GoodRated good· 458 reviewsBreakfast was very basic but it was OK to start the day. The reception lady was delightful and welcoming. She was helpful when it came to room selection. Value ... hard for me to rate precisely for in the preceding weeks we had stayed at cheaper and better but in lower cost locations. We also stayed at more expensive and not so good so you make up your mind with regard to a multitude of choice factors. We will stay again.
MalcolmNew Zealand - From SAR 601.89 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very goodRated very good· 940 reviewsThe hotel is in a good location, near a large shopping mall. Free and sufficient parking is available at the hotel. The room actually has everything you need and is suitable if you just want a place to sleep but otherwise do not have high demands or expectations. I stayed there for two nights and it was fine, but would opt for a different hotel next time which is a bit more modern.MarinaSwitzerland
