Casa Loma Hotel
Cares About Accessibility

Our goal is to provide hospitality to all people who travel to San Francisco. This means everyone. Our mission is to make it as easy as possible for all people including those with hearing, vision, or any other disability to learn about our property and book their stay if they so desire.

If you have difficulty learning about or booking our hotel, we invite you to contact us via telephone or email and our friendly staff will gladly assist you.

Our building is over 50 years old and presents architectural and structural restrictions that limit our ability to reasonably achieve certain mobility improvements to accommodate guests including those who need to utilize a wheelchair.  All of our guest rooms are above the ground floor. The San Francisco Department of Building Inspection determined that due to the architectural and structural limitations full ADA compliance was technically infeasible. Please contact the hotel and ask for the General Manager if you have specific questions about the accessibility features of our property.  Please review our website's dedicated accessibility webpage to learn more about our property's accessibility features.

We work very hard to provide an easy-to-use online experience for all guests. We believe all of our website visitors should be able to easily research online on https://www.casalomahotelsf.com regardless of device type and whether an individual requires assistive technology like a screen reader, font magnification, translation or voice recognition software.

To ensure this, Casa Loma Hotel is committed to compliance with Level AA success criteria of the Website Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1), an international standard measure of accessibility success. Our website and digital marketing has been developed after carefully parsing these particular guidelines and is continuously being enhanced to make our technology more accessible and user-friendly.

We have tested our hotel’s website to ensure that we meet or exceed Level AA checkpoints of the WCAG 2.1 Standard.

Our hotel website allows visitors to search for accessibility featured guest rooms with ease and details our property’s accessibility features on our Hotel Overview page which can be found here: https://www.casalomahotelsf.com/overview

If you have any questions or would like to report any issues related to the accessibility features of our hotel’s website, please contact us at casalomahotel610@gmail.com
