Close to the bustling waterfront of Fisherman's Wharf, the San Remo Hotel is a small, budget-friendly option housed in a three-story 1908 Victorian. The penthouse suite has its own private bath, but the other 64 rooms--furnished with brass beds and lace curtains--share one of several group bathrooms. Hallways are a little narrow and can be dark, but take comfort in knowing you're staying in one of the more historic buildings in the city. The restaurant on the ground floor serves family-style Italian in a charming, if shabby, dining room.
