HI San Francisco Fisherman's Wharf

Top choice in The Marina, Fisherman’s Wharf & the Piers


Trading downtown convenience for a glorious parklike setting with million-dollar waterfront views, this hostel occupies a former army-hospital building, with bargain-priced private rooms and dorms (some co-ed) with four to 22 beds (avoid bunks one and two – they're by doorways). All bathrooms are shared. There's a huge kitchen and a cafe overlooking the bay. Limited free parking.
