Hotel Tomo, a Joie de Vivre Hotel

This hotel was very clean and quiet, a neat new place I've found in San Francisco. And the commute to downtown was so easy. I would definitely stay here again. Good deal!

The hotel itself is just a slightly modernized Best Western, but the people at the front desk or so helpful and accomodating with everything, that I just love this place. I stay here whenever I can. Great to have an empty fridge instead of one loaded up with overpriced drinks. I love the location because I can always find street parking and it is quieter than being downtown

We found our last visit to be similar as the precious visits. No surprises.

I've lived in the bay area before and its nice to go back and visit every now and then. I think this is the perfect hotel if you want to be right in the middle of San Francisco and away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. I loved the cute Japanese theme in the hotel, and I love how close we were to Golden Gate Park, Japantown, and Irving street. I mean you can stay downtown, but I think that gets old after the first day. I much prefer this part of SF. The staff was SUPER friendly and nice and helpful! Highly recommended if you don't want to stay with every other tourist in downtown!

Quiet and pleasant location in Japantown. Close to shops, restaurants and a large Safeway. Easy to get to buses going in various directions. Free WiFi plus computers to print boarding passes for free. Transfer to SFO only $16. A la carte restaurant has good choices for breakfast - omelets are great, plus they come with potato and fruit not mentioned on menu! Room was clean and comfortable. Only downside for me was the noise at night - I didn't use my air con but continuous hum from other units, some strange creaky/knocking noises around my room and occasional emergency vehicle sirens (don't know why they use sirens in the middle of the night).

We have stayed at the motel several times in the past few months. Each time has been predictable and for the most part satisfactory. We would welcome better food services and in room devices such as a microwave. Each time the staff has been pleasant. We are easy attendants as we don't ask for or need much. We just expect to get the service and room we pay for.

I am not good at picking things off the internet. I was very pleased to see that the choice I made was good. Beds could have been softer but it was still sleepable. I would go back, I was in walking distance to everything I wanted to do.

its a cute place to stay. I think its worth your money, and there is a variety of great japanese food in the neighborhood!

This place is literally across the street from Japan Center! The staff was ultra friendly and the atmosphere was great. They were able to give us great restaurant recommendations, directions to different sites, and booked a very comfortable towncar for us to get to the airport the last day. It was the most comfortable hotel I've stayed at in San Francisco, and I would stay there again!

This was our 4th stay since Jan. Each time is a different experience. We only stayed overnight and was greeted with professional service. I still have disappointment with the hotel restaurant and the sub par food quality. Just need to eat somewhere else before arrival and eat somewhere else down the road and we will be fine. There are substantial price swings when making reservations through the online sites. One time it will be $199 the next $99. and this time $169. Middle of the week rates too.
