Top hotels in Upper Rockridge
Holiday Inn Golden Gateway by IHG
Good location in Nob Hill. Our room was on the 20th floor and the views were breath taking. Loved that they had a bell man to help with luggage. He was waiting for us with the door open and did a room tour! Not expecting that at a Holiday Inn.

Club Quarters Hotel in San Francisco
The staff was great, and I liked my room. They still use Chromecast devices instead of having SmartTVs, and mine only worked once in four nights. Other than that, it was a great stay.
