"Superb, sprawling B&B set in two adjoining historic Victorians."
Fodor's

Travel + Leisure
"Set in an 1872 mansion, the 21-room property brims with authentic Victorian details... minus the chintz (not a weathered doily in sight)." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"The owner of this 1872 Victorian Mansion will charm you with hospitality. The spacious rooms are individually decorated in Victorian themes."
Time Out
"This friendly Italianate Victorian, built in 1872, invites you to sprawl about in its beautifully restored sitting rooms, rather than just admire them." Full review

"Victorian to the hilt. Beautifully preserved 1872 Italianate mansion, once a farm breeding champion racehorses and now the oldest existing hotel in town."

"Leaning into Victorian-era decor, this hotel on Mansion Row has just 27 rooms. For accommodations, guests have their choice of small rooms, medium rooms, spacious rooms, or the inn's garden cottages."

Frommer's

"One of the city's best values, the San Remo dates to 1906 and is long on old-fashioned charm." Full review

"The only budget hotel in the area, San Remo is a well-maintained Italianate building, and one of the first to be constructed following the earthquake and fire of 1906."
Gayot
"This lovely, restored Victorian hotel was built by the founder of Bank of America to house maritime workers displaced by the earthquake of 1906."

Time Out
