Warm and welcoming
We felt right at home here. Everyone was warm and welcoming, the rooms were very nice, and the complimentary breakfast was delicious. We also very much appreciated the bidet in our room. Who doesn’t like a warm toilet seat with cleaning and drying abilities?

Even though the room was the tiny room it was cute but the bed was on the hard side so it made it a lil hard to get a good night sleep, other than that I recommend this bed and breakfast, I’ve stayed in other rooms.

Our first night at the Monte Cristo was just awful: we were in an upstairs, back-side room on a warm evening. No ventilation to speak of, and no AC, meant that at 11pm, when it had cooled to 75-degrees outside, our room was 82-degrees. It finally dropped below 76-degrees around 4am. The second night was like night and day: we were moved to a street-side room, airy and well-ventilated, and spent a terrific day and evening there. The breakfast and staff were lovely throughout the visit. I’d recommend the Monte Cristo to anyone wanting to stay in the Richmond District, with the proviso that on a warm night, you ensure a cooler room.

A very quaint boutique hotel, I just loved staying here. I was alone for one night and the queen room was just enough. The dark wood turn of the previous century aesthetic and creeky floors gave it a warm comfy feel to it. Thanks, Paul

We enjoyed our stay at the Monte Cristo. It was very clean and the proprietor was very nice. The only thing I would say is that it was dark due to the decoration. I love vintage, but this was wearing around the edges.

Easy walk to Golden Gate Park. Very surprised how nice and quiet the neighborhood was. Enjoyed the breakfast variety of fresh ingredients, great beginning of the day. Snack and fudge to die for in the afternoon and evening. A block away from a hip lounge to have a drink and begin your evening. Well be returning !
