Just spent a romantic and relaxing two days at the Gerstle Park Inn and wanted to thank all the 'trip advisors" for leading us to this wonderful place. Although we live in Northern/Central California - we wanted a nice spot to get an early start on day trips to Point Reyes and Mt. Tamalpais and this certainly met our needs... more

"A really nice experience" is the impression one is left with after a couple of nights at this charming inn. From my reconnoitering, I see that each room is decorated differently and in charming fashion - very warm, yet colorful. The ambiance of the place is best of all, but the breakfast is a close second. The hosts, Jim and... more

We were looking for a friendly place in a quiet neighborhood with comfortable clean rooms and great food. We found all that and more at the Gerstle Park Inn.

I’d heard how special this inn was but was cautiously optimistic. I wasn’t disappointed in the least. Elegant and romantic but at the same time cozy and inviting with an array of stunning antiquities that are a feast for the eyes. Every detail was attended to (including lux robes, a wine hour, excellent reading material, a flat screen TV in... more

I stayed at this lovely Inn in November, all by myself. I felt totally secure, and found the experience wonderful. The rooms are well appointed to the point of fussiness. The details and care that went into each room and common area are amazing. It's a very personal place. The breakfast is very good, cooked to order, and the hosts... more

This inn is a little gem. Just a quick drive from the city and yet feels many many miles away. The grounds are incredible - english gardens with fun little discoveries as you meander along. The breakfast is quite yummy and often served outside and San Rafael has the weather for it! I didn't particularly like my room - it... more

Nancy from Amsterdam must have been traveling alone or got in a fight or something...because contrary to her opinion, this was the perfect getaway for us. It was EXACTLY what we needed for a nice ROMANTIC weekend. Not too far away and close enough to get around to the many wonderful places to eat, shop and sightsee. We ate at... more
