A lovely old hotel. I just wish they would upgrade their sheets. They’re a little scratchy.

It's a rustic building in the centre of San Anselmo. There are no restaurant facilities but there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance. There's no reception desk and you will find your room key left in an envelope on a table and you have to work things out for yourself. If you want all of the facilities of a larger hotel like a reception desk, bar, gym, restaurant, elevators etc. this is not for you. But there is a decent buffet breakfast provided. The rooms are small and the shower room was tiny but OK for me as I was travelling on my own. It was all clean when I got there but housekeeping didn't visit at all in the 4 nights I stayed. Hotels in Marin are expensive and this place is well priced compared with the others in the area and fine if you just need somewhere to sleep and shower before spending the day exploring.

We had a great time at the San Anselmo Inn. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and the location was ideal for what we had to do in the neighborhood. I would suggest to anybody who likes a quaint place without all the other frills and whistles this is the place. I would also recommend to my family or friends.

So convenient. Very walkable to dining and activities. San Anselmo had this great street night where they closed the main road and everyone was out eating and listening to music, but when we returned to our room we didn't hear any of it. The furniture is a little sparce and worn out, but everything was clean.

It felt like I was staying in a college dorm but with a bigger bed. No a/c, the accent wall was made up of shiny ply wood, parking across the street, my view outside was a concrete wall. It was terribly warm when I arrived and since there’s no a/c, decided to open the window but since it’s a Friday and there’s a wine bar downstairs, it was loud. Had one of the worst sleeps I had in a while

It’s a little funky- older fixtures and the beds aren’t great. But the location is lovely and it’s a traditional old school Inn which is interesting.

Such a quirky little place, it was smack in the heart of downtown San Anselmo. Quaint, clean and quiet, I was pleasantly surprised. Friendly and helpful host. Valenti’s restaurant directly next door was excellent. Loved my time here!

Delightful small hotel. I was meeting a group for dinner and did not want to drive back to Sonoma Co. This was a perfect spot for me.

I could tell they were trying to make this a boutique hotel. Not quite there yet Bed was very uncomfortable. Shower knob was broken and I had to borrower pliers to get a shower. Never saw any staff. I am hoping that they are working on getting in better condition.

Anniversary trip and San Anselmo was our home base to get to Point Reyes, Muir Woods, SF & Sausalito/Tiberon. Easy check-in, quiet and comfortable room, nice patio to relax with a bottle of wine. Cute town, very family and dog friendly. Would definitely recommend!

Quaint little hotel, nice, but we never saw anyone, we picked up our key from a table and left the key in the room. The bed wasn't super comfortable, too firm and felt every movement, but overall it was fine. Quiet and restful.

Everything was great and easy. Just wish the sheets were a little softer. They seemed a little l pill-ie

Quaint boutique hotel in the middle of town. Positives were we could walk to dinner easily and it was contactless check in/out. Negatives were the skinny hallways with only one exit, decent breakfast, but little flexibility on check out.

San Anselmo is a wonderful place to visit with beautiful surroundings, shops and restaurants. It’s hard to believe huge cities are just over the small mountain. The Inn is the only place to stay right in town. The included breakfast was wonderful with fresh sweet strawberries every morning, and pastries. Check in was a breeze. It was so quiet at night that I thought we were the only guests in the whole place. No trafic noise whatsoever. That being said, my room was a bit shabby. Missing tile in the shower, poor paint job in the bathroom. The bed was OK but the pillows need a total re-do or bring your own. With a little help this place could be outstanding. The manager seems to really care about your experience. We also had the accessible room, I’m not sure why. If booking I would highly recommend the top floor with windows to the main street. I almost asked to see one for a future visit. Yes, I would stay here again, but definitely ask for a different room and hope the bedding is better.

Still adheres to pandemic self-check-in protocol, so I saw not a soul representing the hotel the 2 days I stayed. The window covering in the room did not entirely cover the window. Walls are paper thin. I stayed here a few years before the pandemic and it's the same -- but worse bc there's no breakfast buffet in the downstairs cafe/patio setting and housekeeping is only provided for an extra fee. The location - downtown San Anselmo - however, is excellent.

This was nothing fancy. Instead it was charming and quaint. The bed was super comfortable. Because it was March the room could have been chilly but we were provided a space heater to warm us up. Loved this Inn.

The San Anselmo Inn is very convenient to a friend's residence several blocks away. I was gone from the Inn most of the days I was visiting, returning early evening. Very pleasant and safe to re-enter my room for the evening. Benedict, the manager/owner(?) of the Inn was always very welcoming and accommodating. I was not at the Inn for the days that its' restaurant is open but heard very positive comments in the community about the quality of the food and service.

Wonderful old inn, but clean and beautiful beyond belief. So quiet and on a beautiful and quiet downtown street. Walking around was very enjoyable and different eateries in the neighborhood. Just incredibly gorgeous!

Funky—in a good way. TV impossible to work. View of a concrete wall out the window. But people were very nice. Clean and convenient.

Owner/host a pleasure to speak with and was very hospitable.
One of the servers at the adjoining restaurant was gracious to take time to fulfill a request we had as we walked by the adjoining door for decaf coffee so we could relax outside before retiring.

There's no body to greet you. You pick up your key that's left on a table with your name. Our TV didn't work and there was nobody to contact for help. The rooms are small and the walls so thin I could hear my neighbors using the bathroom and talking.

I loved the area. It is a great change of pace from SF. The hotel is dated but clean. I do not like the phantom check in process. I did not see a single hotel staff member in my 4 days of being there. I went looking for one one day and could not find one. That is seriously annoying. My room was OK but did not have a comfortable chair in it. The wood office chair at the desk needs to be updated. My back ached constantly due to this. I will stay there again in the future.

A short 1 night stay during a motorcycle trip. Great town with boutique shops and some very good restaurants. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. George Lucas created Star Wars while he lived in this town and there are neat statues of some of the characters.
