Sutter Mansion
San Francisco, United States · ★★★★★ · 9.4/10 Exceptional · guest rating
Historic Victorian-style mansion on Sutter Street, near Japantown, with a gallery-style lobby, espresso coffee and individually decorated rooms.
Sutter Mansion is a historic Victorian-style mansion at 1409 Sutter Street in San Francisco. Closer to a boutique inn than a large hotel, it offers a gallery-style lobby where staff serve espresso in a calm setting. The photos show a stately entrance, a wooden staircase with carved balusters and a marble fireplace topped by a framed painting, giving the public rooms a stately, old-world feel.
The rooms are spacious and each one is decorated differently, with comfortable beds and plenty of room to spread out. On the ground floor is Anomaly, a pop-up dinner restaurant, which is worth confirming in advance because it may not always be open. The property accepts pets and offers parking and breakfast. It is a charming, intimate historic option for travelers who prefer a house with character over a large resort with many services.
