Hotels Near San Francisco Airport with Free Parking and Shuttle

Back to San Francisco Airport Parking Hotel: Best Park & Fly Deals | Complete SFO Airport Parking Guide

Hotels near San Francisco Airport with free parking and shuttle are rarer than the search suggests. On Triply, parking at hotels near SFO is paid, and only one of the five lots has a shuttle. Triply sells parking-only spaces at the Best Western Grosvenor Hotel, Hampton Inn, Courtyard San Francisco Airport, DoubleTree San Francisco Airport North Bayfront and Home2Suites by Hilton, from about $9/day to $24/day. That compares with $27 to $60/day in SFO's own garages. Rates are for a 7-day stay booked ahead and change by date. Only the Best Western has a shuttle (part-time, with a 5-day minimum booking); the other four have no shuttle, so you add a rideshare each way.

• Best value: Best Western Grosvenor Hotel at about $9/day, the only Triply SFO lot with a shuttle. It is complimentary and runs every 45 minutes, but only 5:00 to 10:15 AM and 5:00 to 10:25 PM, and bookings need 5 days minimum.
• No shuttle: Hampton Inn and Courtyard San Francisco Airport cost about $10/day, DoubleTree San Francisco Airport North Bayfront about $13/day and Home2Suites by Hilton about $24/day. None has a shuttle, so you pay for a taxi, Uber or Lyft each way.
• Closest to SFO: Best Western Grosvenor is listed 2.1 miles from the airport and Courtyard 2.3 miles (about a 5-minute drive).
• Savings vs on-airport: Best Western Grosvenor is about 65% less per day than SFO's Long-Term Garage ($27/day) and about 77% less than the Domestic Garage ($41/day). Home2Suites is only about 11% below Long-Term.
• Free cancellation: every Triply booking comes with free cancellation with a full refund up to 24 hours before check-in.
• Parking only: Triply sells parking spaces at these hotels, not rooms.

Which Hotels Near SFO Offer Free Parking and a Free Shuttle?

Triply sells five hotel lots near San Francisco International Airport. Parking is paid at all five, only the Best Western has a shuttle, and every booking comes with free cancellation with a full refund up to 24 hours before check-in. Here's how they stack up by daily rate:

How Far Are These Hotels from SFO Terminals — and How Long Is the Shuttle Ride?

The five hotel lots Triply sells near SFO are listed 2.1 to 3.6 miles from the terminals. Only the Best Western Grosvenor has a shuttle; for the other four you drive to the lot and take a taxi, Uber or Lyft to the terminal. SFO's access roads along South Airport Boulevard and US-101 can slow things down during peak hours, so add extra buffer time if you're traveling on a Monday morning or Friday afternoon.

Here's what to expect by property:

• Best Western Grosvenor Hotel: listed 2.1 miles from SFO. The shuttle runs every 45 minutes in two windows (5:00 to 10:15 AM and 5:00 to 10:25 PM). The listing gives no ride time; for an airport pickup, call 650-873-3200.
• Courtyard San Francisco Airport: listed 2.3 miles, about a 5-minute drive. No shuttle.
• Hampton Inn and Home2Suites by Hilton: both on Gateway Blvd in South San Francisco, listed 2.7 miles away. No shuttle at either. The Hampton Inn is just off Highway 101.
• DoubleTree San Francisco Airport North Bayfront: listed 3.6 miles, about 11 minutes away, in Brisbane. No shuttle. Go to the hotel front desk before parking to get a validation code, then scan the on-site QR code to register your car.

SFO sits 12 miles south of downtown San Francisco, just off US-101. The surrounding neighborhoods, including South San Francisco, San Bruno, Burlingame, and Millbrae, all host hotels within easy reach of the terminals. Before you drive, check real-time traffic on Waze, since SFO access roads can back up fast during construction and peak periods in 2026.

What Are the Shuttle Hours and How Frequently Do They Run?

Only one of the five hotel lots Triply sells near SFO has a shuttle, and it runs part of the day. The other four have no shuttle at any hour. Plan accordingly, especially for very early or very late flights.

• Best Western Grosvenor Hotel: the complimentary shuttle runs every 45 minutes from 5:00 to 10:15 AM and from 5:00 to 10:25 PM. There is no shuttle from 10:15 AM to 5:00 PM or from 10:25 PM to 5:00 AM. You can still park then, but you need your own Uber or Lyft. Call 650-873-3200 to arrange an airport pickup.
• Hampton Inn, Courtyard San Francisco Airport, DoubleTree San Francisco Airport North Bayfront and Home2Suites by Hilton: no shuttle at any hour. You pay for a taxi, Uber or Lyft to and from the airport at your own expense.
• For a red-eye or an early-morning departure, the Best Western shuttle starts at 5:00 AM, so earlier flights need a rideshare from any of the five lots.

A practical tip: if you book the Best Western Grosvenor, plan around its shuttle windows and call 650-873-3200 to arrange an airport pickup. Arrive at the lot before your airline's 2-hour window. For the four lots with no shuttle, line up your rideshare in advance. Add at least 30 minutes of buffer for getting from the lot to the terminal, on top of the standard recommendation to arrive 2 hours before domestic flights and 3 hours before international.

For flights departing from the International Terminal (Boarding Areas A and G) — serving airlines like British Airways, Emirates, Singapore Airlines, Japan Airlines, and Lufthansa — allow extra time. The International Terminal drop-off area is separate from the domestic terminals. Review TSA security screening guidelines to understand exactly what's needed once you arrive, especially if you're checking bags.

How Much Can You Save Choosing a Hotel with Free Parking vs SFO's Own Parking Lots?

The savings can be significant. SFO's on-airport garages charge $27 to $60/day depending on the lot, while Triply's hotel lots near SFO start at about $9/day at the Best Western Grosvenor (part-time shuttle, 5-day minimum). Over a 7-day trip, that difference adds up, but four of the five hotel lots have no shuttle, so add a rideshare each way.

Parking at the Best Western Grosvenor Hotel instead of SFO's Long-Term Garage saves about $123 over seven days, roughly 65% less, but its shuttle runs only part of the day and bookings need 5 days minimum. The 7-night checkout there comes to $75.18 with fees. Hampton Inn and Courtyard cost about $72 to $73 for the week, around 61% to 62% less than Long-Term, but with no shuttle a rideshare each way is extra. The DoubleTree is about $89 for the week, also with no shuttle. Home2Suites at about $24/day is only about 11% below Long-Term and has no shuttle, so it is not a money saver.

Which SFO-Area Hotels Include Free Parking with Park-and-Fly Packages?

Triply does not sell park-and-fly packages or hotel rooms. At the five SFO hotels it sells, you book parking only: a space for your trip dates, with no room to reserve. Only the Best Western Grosvenor has a shuttle, and it runs part of the day.

Here's how parking at these hotels works on Triply:

1. Book your parking dates on Triply. Cancel free with a full refund up to 24 hours before check-in if plans change.
2. Drive to the hotel lot. At the DoubleTree, go to the front desk first for a validation code, then scan the on-site QR code to register your car.
3. Get to the terminal: the Best Western Grosvenor shuttle runs every 45 minutes from 5:00 to 10:15 AM and 5:00 to 10:25 PM. At the other four lots, or outside those hours, take a taxi, Uber or Lyft.
4. When you return, call 650-873-3200 for a Best Western Grosvenor pickup, or take a rideshare back to any of the other lots.
5. Retrieve your car and drive home.

The Best Western Grosvenor Hotel, Hampton Inn, Courtyard San Francisco Airport, DoubleTree San Francisco Airport North Bayfront and Home2Suites by Hilton are the five hotels Triply sells near SFO, and their parking-only rates are listed above. For a closer look at one of them, our DoubleTree by Hilton SFO North Bayfront parking guide covers the arrival process.

What Amenities Should You Expect at Hotels Near SFO with Free Parking?

Amenities at these lots are modest and limited to what each listing shows. All five have a 24/7 front desk, four list a restaurant and three list wheelchair access. None lists covered parking or EV charging. Here's what each one offers.

• Best Western Grosvenor Hotel (about $9/day): 24/7 front desk, restaurant, wheelchair access, and a complimentary part-time shuttle. No extra charge for full-size vans, pickup trucks and large SUVs. 5-day minimum booking.
• Hampton Inn (about $10/day, no shuttle): 24/7 front desk and wheelchair access, just off Highway 101.
• Courtyard San Francisco Airport (about $10/day, no shuttle): 24/7 front desk and a restaurant, about a 5-minute drive from SFO.
• DoubleTree San Francisco Airport North Bayfront (about $13/day, no shuttle): security patrolling, 24/7 front desk and a restaurant.
• Home2Suites by Hilton (about $24/day, no shuttle): 24/7 front desk, restaurant and wheelchair access, with no extra charge for full-size vans, pickup trucks and large SUVs. At about 11% below SFO Long-Term, it is the priciest of the five.

Travelers enrolled in TSA PreCheck can often clear security faster at SFO, which means a slightly shorter buffer time needed once you arrive at the terminal. That said, build in at least 30 minutes for getting from the lot to the terminal, by shuttle or rideshare, regardless.

How Do You Get from These Hotels to the SFO International Terminal or Terminal 1?

Whichever lot you choose, you can reach every SFO terminal. That includes Harvey Milk Terminal 1 (Southwest, JetBlue, American, Alaska), Terminal 2 (Alaska, Air Canada, Breeze, Sun Country), Terminal 3 (United domestic), and the International Terminal (Boarding Areas A and G), which handles Air France, ANA, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, Delta, Emirates, Japan Airlines, Lufthansa, Qantas, Singapore Airlines, and many more. With a rideshare you name the terminal. The Best Western Grosvenor listing does not say which terminals its shuttle serves, so call 650-873-3200 to confirm before you go.

Ask your rideshare driver to drop you at the departure level of your terminal. If you use the Best Western Grosvenor shuttle, confirm the drop-off point when you call. You can also use the free SFO AirTrain to reach a specific boarding area. The AirTrain Blue Line runs 24 hours a day, as often as every 4 minutes, and connects all terminals at no cost.

For travelers flying internationally from Boarding Areas A or G, the International Terminal drop-off area is on the far side of the airport from the domestic terminals. Tell your rideshare driver (or confirm with the Best Western Grosvenor if you use its shuttle) that you need the International Terminal. You can view the full terminal layout on SFO's official terminal map.

Is Free Hotel Parking Near SFO Worth It for Long Trips?

For a week-long trip, the cheaper hotel lots near SFO cost far less than SFO's own garages, but the tradeoff is real. Only the Best Western Grosvenor has a shuttle, it runs part of the day, and bookings there need 5 days minimum. At the other four lots you pay for a rideshare each way on top of the parking rate.

Here's a quick comparison to help you decide:

• Choose a Triply hotel lot if: you're parking 5 days or more and want the lowest daily rate (Best Western Grosvenor, about $9/day, part-time shuttle), or you're fine arranging your own rideshare (Hampton Inn, Courtyard, DoubleTree), and you want free cancellation up to 24 hours before check-in.
• Choose SFO Long-Term Garage if: you want on-airport parking with the free AirTrain, which runs 24 hours a day, at $27/day. It suits flights outside the Best Western shuttle hours. SFO's garages are booked through flysfo.com, not Triply.
• Choose SFO Domestic Garage if: you're making a quick 1-2 day trip and proximity to the terminal matters more than cost. It runs $41/day.

For most travelers flying out of SFO for a week, the numbers are clear. Seven days at the Best Western Grosvenor Hotel comes to about $66 in parking, compared to $189 at SFO's Long-Term Garage, a saving of about $123, with a shuttle during its morning and evening windows. The DoubleTree is about $89 for the week, roughly $100 less than Long-Term, but it has no shuttle, so add a rideshare each way.
