Finding Parking at Our Bed and Breakfast in the Mission District 

Planning to drive to our bed and breakfast in the Mission District of San Francisco and need information on parking? You’ve come to the right place! Parking anywhere in San Francisco can be tricky and for those visiting from out-of-state, it’s recommended to use public transportation to get around the city though there are some options available if you do bring your own vehicle or rent one.

Parking on Arrival

S.F.P.D. has strongly advised us to NOT have arriving guests park across the sidewalk even for a few minutes. This blocks “handicapped access to the sidewalk” and the ticket is about $300. Also, please do not pull all the way into the driveway with green walls, there is not enough space to exit the car.

So, if there is sufficient room to parallel park in front of our driveway at 943 S. Van Ness, please do so. S.F.P.D. will not give tickets to cars parked in front of our driveways, since you have our permission.  

If there is not sufficient room to park there, please parallel park in front of one of our Red Garage Doors across the street at 948 S. Van Ness.

You can park in these areas for about 10 minutes to unload luggage and check in.  Once you enter the property, please let the front desk staff know where you are parked and we will assist you with parking options.

Inn San Francisco Indoor Garage Parking

Located right across the street from our bed and breakfast is an indoor parking garage with space available on request. These spaces are very limited with our inn having only nine for our guests. Please make your parking reservation as soon as you make your room reservation.

Unfortunately, parking cannot be reserved through our online reservation system but you can email us at innkeeper@innsf.com or call our front desk at 415-641-0188 to reserve a space. Current rates are $30 per car, plus taxes, and are not subject to discounts. After you have checked in and provided your vehicle information, you’ll receive a garage door genie so you can access the garage at your convenience, 24 hours a day.

Please note that we reserve the right to bump rental vehicles for those owned by guests and cannot guarantee that we can accommodate oversized vehicles. We are not responsible for any items left in your vehicle at any time.

For ‘peace of mind’ please do not leave valuables in your car parked not only in our garages but parked anywhere in San Francisco in general.
