About Elements Hostel

We are the recipient of the National Geographic Travelers magazine 10 best places to stay award for 2005!!

Welcome to San Francisco's newest hostel in the city's warmest neighborhood.The hostel is located in the heart of San Francisco’s most vibrant, cultural and historic districts – The Mission. Experience the sights and sounds of the neighborhood known for its murals, mosaics and paintings, while taking in the 360° view of downtown San Francisco from the city’s only roof top terrace. Our proximity to the BART and other transport makes getting around the city by the bay a breeze. Areas such as Dolores Park and Castro within walking distance of the hostel.

We have created a brand new building from the ground up - with you in mind. We want to be the best hostel you have ever stayed at! We have a giant roof deck for sunbathing, lounging and more.(see the view in picture 2) Each floor has a lounge (free internet and multi-media) and downstairs we've built both a restaurant and an outdoor café.(Free continental breakfast!) All designed to make your stay unforgettable.

The Mission district is real San Francisco; artist’s studios, parks, murals, the hippest clubs and restaurants, lots of transportation and beautiful Victorian homes with families of all types. Mission Street is alive with a rainbow of cafes, markets, shops and people.
