USA Hostels San Francisco

Our users have told us USA Hostels San Francisco is 'very clean, super friendly and very welcoming' with a 'perfect price/quality compromise' and 'really helpful and down-to-earth' staff who 'really make this place'. One Hostelworld guest said the hostel is ideal whether you want to 'sit back and relax, party, meet new people or spend some time on your own'. The hostel also has 'something going on every night', like walking tours, free drinks and tickets to local matches. We like their shuttle to their sister hostel in Hollywood-a handy budget alternative for those travelling onwards.

Voted the #1 hostel in the country by Hostelworld customers for 2010!

At USA Hostels San Francisco we have more than just comfortable rooms: we offer great value with a central location and more free and unique amenities than any other hostel in the city.

Please refer to check-in requirements at the bottom of the page before making your reservation.

Our top-rated hostel has plenty of guest space in our lounge, large kitchen and 45-seat theatre with two screens.

But what really sets us apart from the rest of San Francisco's hostels is that we've always got something going on. Whether it's wine and cheese night, a billiard tournament or karaoke, you can get your night in San Francisco started with us. There's free hostel activities every night of the week!

Our extras include 'privacy pods' - we're the only hostel in the city with privacy screening on dorm beds that also includes a reading light, shelf and outlet!

There's only four beds per dorm, with real mattresses (no foam stuff) and comfy duvets. There's also free in-room lockers with power points inside for secure electronics-charging. Our newly renovated private rooms include duvets, cable TV, fridge, microwave and Mp3 player.

For our free breakfast you can have all-you-can-make pancakes, oatmeal, coffee and tea daily, and for summer we've added toast and pastries.

Other amenities include free day-storage of luggage after check-out, free washing powder for use in our laundry and free use of hairdryers.
