Stay at Acqua Hotel in Marin, an Alternative to San Francisco!

We’ve been hearing from our guests that Acqua Hotel in Marin County is the perfect alternative to staying in San Francisco. With easy access to the city, free parking, complimentary full breakfast, evening wine reception, an easy vibe, and beautiful surroundings, we can see why!

In fact, one of our guests had this to say:

Acqua Hotel: Superior Alternative to Staying in the City

We LOVED this hotel! We decided to stay in Mill Valley rather than in San Francisco for our recent trip and it was DEFINITELY the right decision! We did a day trip into the city and we got to Fisherman’s Wharf in 18 minutes, but during our stay we felt so safe, had free car parking and enjoyed the beautiful setting which we wouldn’t have got in the city. We loved having Muir woods, the bay and lots of restaurants on our doorstep, it was so easy to get around. This hotel is in the perfect location.

Getting to San Francisco from Marin

From Acqua Hotel, you’ll reach the Golden Gate Bridge in about 6 minutes. Drive over the span and in a few minutes you are in San Francisco! If you would rather go on the water, take the ferry for a stunning trip into San Francisco. Read more about how to get to San Francisco from Marin here.


Enjoy your stay at Acqua Hotel!
