Tips for Booking a San Francisco Soaking Tub Hotel
- Fog is romantic, not a problem: SF’s famous Karl the Fog rolls in most summer evenings. It’s beautiful from a high-floor tub — don’t let “foggy SF” deter you.
- Summer is surprisingly cool: Unlike the rest of California, San Francisco summers are cool and foggy (60–65°F). The warmest months are September–October. Best weather for a soaking tub evening: October, when it’s warm and clear.
- Nob Hill is worth the price: The legacy Grand Dame hotels on Nob Hill (the Fairmont, Mark Hopkins, Huntington) have some of the best suite-quality tub experiences in the city. Historic and spectacular.
