My stay was in the Golden Era when San Francisco was...well, San Francisco, before you were a twinkle in your grandfather's eye. Fresh out of college in Montana it was 1960 and the Harcourt fresh off the train my introduction to a great city full of wonderful eccentric odd balls. Best of all - room, breakfast and dinner $105 a month... Sorry, y'all... you were just born too soon. Ciao!||||.

It is primarily a residential hotel, however more pleasant than most. It is clean, quiet, and has a charming, Victorian-inspired look and feel to it. There is free coffee available in the mornings down in the dining/rec room just off the lobby. It rarely has vacancies, as it is popular among locals, as well as travelers. I recommend it first when friends need a place to stay, but it's usually booked up.

We booked this hotel, knowing nothing of the area in which it was located. We were looking for a place to sleep during our stay in SF -- something less than $100 per night. We found it. We were a bit apprehensive due to it also being a residence hotel with weekly and monthly rates and many rooms without private baths.||||We found exactly what we were looking for. We don't need daily maid service -- we can pick up after ourselves, we don't need the little bottles of shampoo and lotion. This is a 100 year old hotel, with the original claw-foot tub, old elevator, front desk, etc. But the on site manager and the front desk staff were outstanding. We felt completely secure, our linens were very clean (although there was a cigarette burn in the blanket -- who cares!), the bathroom was cle

This is a Residential Hotel. The rooms are typically rented weekly. The rate is usually $200- $250, depending on the type of room. Rooms with windows facing the street are at the higher end. Some rooms include bathrooms, however most of them do not. There is a full time house keeping staff as well as a friendly maintenance man. Rooms are cleaned once and week, and the shared facilities are cleaned daily. However the bathrooms are awful. There are also some overall aesthetic issues. Compared to other residential hotels at this rate The Harcourt is nice. With some love and care a room in The Harcourt could be an affordable cozy oasis in the city.
