The Nob Hill Inn is a small, vintage inn built in the years after the 1906 earthquake and opened around 1906–1907. It was originally a private home/Edwardian townhouse that was converted into a boutique inn; the property preserves period details and antiques and was refurbished in recent decades while keeping its old-San-Francisco character. The inn today operates as a cozy, 20-room (roughly) boutique lodging option on Nob Hill, popular for its location and historic ambiance.

Haunted hot-spots & Reported paranormal activity

General reputation: The Nob Hill Inn is consistently listed among San Francisco’s most haunted small hotels; local ghost-tour operators and paranormal sites say the building is home to numerous “friendly” spirits.
Location of activity: Most reports place activity in the guest rooms, hallways and antique-filled common areas — visitors commonly describe objects moving, items going missing (sometimes described as prankish behavior), unexplained cold spots, and footsteps or tapping when no one else is present.
Number & character of spirits: Folklore around the inn claims there are more spirits than rooms (often quoted as ~20–22 ghosts), many thought to be victims or displaced residents from the 1906 earthquake era; accounts emphasize that the spirits are mostly playful rather than malevolent.
Antiques & “attached” energy: Several writeups suggest some of the paranormal reports may be tied to the inn’s collection of period furniture and antiques — guests sometimes feel an uneasy presence around certain items or notice them behaving oddly.
