The Red Vic B&B is more than just an historic hotel on world-famous Haight Street near Golden Gate Park. It is a peaceful world travelers hotel, a cozy, comfortable, friendly gathering place for people, ideals, and ideas for a better world. We prefer personal relationships over TV, reasonable prices over mazimum profits. We are a business founded on love and dedicated to doing our utmost for a just and sustainable world.

The Red Victorian was constructed as the Jefferson Hotel in 1904, serving as a country resort hotel for folks coming from the city of San Francisco to take the fresh air of the then-developing Golden Gate Park. In 1967 the Sumer of Love exploded on the scene. The Red Vic was dubbed the "Jeffrey Haight" and its room became a "crash pad" for the flower children and hippies.

Sami Sunchild acquired, painted and named the building The Red Victorian in 1977, dedicating it to peace, ecology and global friendship. The Red Victorian has no connection with the movie theater other than the fact they liked the name and decided in 1980 to use it too.
