Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near San Bruno
For most travelers, San Francisco International Airport (SFO) is the clear primary choice; it is the only airport located directly in the city of San Bruno and offers exceptionally fast and cheap connections via BART or local bus. For those arriving at Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport (OAK), expect a transit-heavy trip through the East Bay using the BART system or a significantly more expensive taxi ride; this airport is located in the neighboring city of Oakland. Similarly, Buchanan Field Airport (CCR) serves the neighboring city of Concord and requires a longer, multi-stop journey. Travelers arriving at Sacramento International Airport (SMF) or Stockton Metropolitan Airport (SCK) will find themselves in a different region entirely—Sacramento and Stockton respectively—necessitating lengthy train or shuttle transfers to reach San Bruno. We recommend SFO for those prioritizing convenience, while travelers willing to endure longer commutes might consider the other regional airports if the flight fares provide significant savings. Always confirm your transit schedule in advance, especially when connecting between rail systems.

Missed my flight and had to stay overnight in San Francisco. Hotel Aura has a competitive pricing and provides free shuttle services to the airport. Indeed a bonus when u just wanna get a night’s rest.
The reception, Mike was helpful and made our check-in process easy. The room looks a tad dated but it is clean. Overall, it is a good night stay and a good place for a quick stopover.FromUS$112

Room: The room is large, the facilities are old, there is a simple kitchen (no seasoning), no hot water bottle, old-fashioned style (full house carpet);
Service: Basically there is no service at all, basically if people will not come to clean the room, you can ask (inform the front desk)
Breakfast: Very simple, bread / bacon / eggs / yogurt
Security: Very close to the airport, there is a shuttle bus, the open apartment group is not particularly safe, there is no security or gate
Opposite is a small Mall, there are supermarkets/many restaurants (Pokehouse/tea restaurant/Mexican cuisine/pearl milk tea/and Lily BBQ) - very convenient to go out and pack, try not to go out at night, because there are no houses nearby, or a little desertedFromUS$159

Came from a cruise, so arrived early for check-in. Not close to pier so opted for early check in at $10 an hour. About 10-15 minutes to airport. Room was large & clean. Carpet was good. Bed was high but comfortable. 2 chairs and an ottoman. Wendy’s across the street. Free shuttle to airport but had already scheduled Uber because of time.FromUS$98

I stayed for 5 days this time and had a pretty good experience overall. The cleanliness, environment, service, and facilities were all good. However, there was one thing that bothered me: on check-in day, we arrived early, and the front desk kindly stored our luggage for free so we could go out and take care of some things before returning to check in and pick up our bags. But when we checked out and wanted to store our luggage for the afternoon, planning to pick it up before heading to the airport, we were told there would be a fee. That was a bit annoying. So, we decided to drag our luggage around while sightseeing. Luckily, nothing went wrong, but I don't understand why storing luggage was free upon arrival but charged after check-out.FromUS$110

My husband and I stayed here for an overnight on our way from the East Coast to Shanghai. My husband is very sensitive to noise so we asked for a quiet room and they were very accommodating. They cleaned up a room for us that was not facing the road.
It’s a very simple place but is close to the airport and easily accessible using public transportation. An Uber in the morning was only $20 but from the airport it was about 30. We missed the bus going to the airport so we had to take a Lyft.
There are many good restaurants in the area, and it seemed pretty safe to walk around, although definitely not a lot of people walking around in the area.
The bed was comfortable, but as were the furnishings in the room. Overall, it was a good place to stay if you’re on a budget.FromUS$91

This hotel near the airport is really suitable for friends who are in transit.
Take the airport shuttle to the last stop, and then walk for 15 minutes to get there.
(Although we almost couldn't find the exit in the parking lot 🤭)
The staff is very nice, the breakfast pancakes are delicious, and the room is large and clean.
There is a bus to the airport every hour, highly recommended!FromUS$119

A very nice overnight coming in/out of SFO. Very clean, nice rooms of the motel variety. Their care is apparent. I took the BART one stop to San Bruno and walked the 15 minutes from there. It’s a fairly safe neighborhood, I felt find doing this at 10 at night. The BART is $19 round trip (there is a massive surcharge for using the SFO station, but when I read about taxis charging absurd amounts for even short trips this was worth it). If you don’t want to walk, grab an Uber from San Bruno.FromUS$127
