Rose Garden is amazingly beautiful and is truly its own little world. I love it here, so close to LA and yet seems so far. Its so fresh in here and a great place to escape with cute little benches tucked away in strategic places. I love the Japanese garden and the Hope rock thats up the trail next to the house on the hill. Just lovely! Sprawling grounds of vegetation wherever the eye can see! Oh yeah, admission is cheap, about 8 dollars or so, theres a cute gift shop, and a cafe. Free parking, too........ all this in the heart of a quaint little neighborhood....an oasis for peace.
When you are in San Francisco for the spring and summer seasons, please remember to visit the Rose Garden in Golden Gate Park. I visited in summer last year and the little garden was full of color and rosy splendor. This spring I took a visiting relative. While the bloomers were not as bountiful, the ones that were taking in the spring sun were nevertheless beautiful. I highly recommend visiting the Golden Gate Park Rose Garden!
The place and the park is just beautiful and is surrounded by all this cute houses, there are lots of runners and dogs, it can get a little crowded during the weekend
If you are a rose lover, this is a place you must visit. There are roses of all varieties and of different colors in one single location for you to explore. This place is perfect for pictures and no admission tickets are required. It is open every day for your visit. So if you will visit the park, remember to drop by here.
Same walk as always, something about that Indian summer type day in the garden. With fall looming, not many chances left to see the flowers in full bloom.
The garden is fairly small, but theres a good selection of roses. Unfortunately, when I went a lot of them were cut down, so only a couple were left standing. However, Im sure this garden is absolutely beautiful during the summers when the weather is nice!
The rose garden was beautiful ! i really enjoyed it ! It made me feel relaxed so good !
Amazing roses and right next to a really cool redwood grove. Good place for a picnic or to just chill out on a bench for awhile.
I really enjoyed this garden. Its open to the public and low stress. Some really beautiful roses, all well labeled. Some open space to sit down (on the ground) and take everything in.
Fred the sculptor of Sausalito, you could buy pictures of Elizabeth the Great. Number 36
Easy to walk and enjoy the beautiful roses and the smell.
Beautiful roses and wonderful place to walk or sit and enjoy the view
Nice flower garden, many more around here in walking distance you can head to.
Another beautiful place within Golden Gate Park.
Wide variety..... Or as peacefull...... Beautiful...... Must see
Visited in spring it had nice bloom of roses.
It is a rose garden, nice to walk through and smell the blooms.
This is a wonderful Rose Garden on the edge of Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. The new Rose Master there has definitely improved the place. They need to use organic methods and more mulch and maybe more control over the pruners there that hacked the roses a little bit too much sometimes. But definitely an improvement and definitely a huge selection of roses. I hope they will continue to use the old roses and not so much the brand new tea roses. The old roses are so much better to look at.
Its not huge, but its nice. Good variety of roses arranged in ordered beds, stretching between two streets. Perfect for a 5 minute stroll... or Pokemon hunting - its a gym location too!!
I love taking pictures, I found this Rose garden on Google maps and I planned a photoshoot here.Everything went great, the roses where great!They really take care of them and it smelled really good
This garden is so beautiful and the smell of roses is everywhere lol!
Come here every time Im out here. So serene and beautiful. Plus its free. Recommend taking the bus or walking if youre close enough to get there.
Bloomy sweet smells
Absolutely stunning. Beautifully grown, kept and presented. Thank you so so much to everyone who has put effort into this garden. I appreciate you.
Beautiful roses of course. Pretty backdrop for family photos.
One of the most beautiful spots in the park in May.
Very nice when in bloom, very disappointing when they’re not. Time your visit well!
Beautiful and smells delightful!
Absolutely beautiful and peaceful place
Lovely. But nothings blooming yet
Beautiful part of GGP right next to this quiet walking path that leads to a WWI memorial. The rose garden is small but great.
I love this place. The flowers are amazing, benches for people watching or just resting, and green paths for kiddos.
Its a bunch of roses which is cool but not very well arranged
A wonderful display of roses of all types and colors. Peaceful. Some are stunning.
Beautiful spot tucked away
It was pleasant but not in full bloom as expected in early May but I enjoyed walking through it on the way out of Golden Gate Park to Park Presidio. My favorite rose garden is still the Rose Test Garden located in Washington Park in Portland, Oregon.
O ya roses r red ⚘
Good place to walk!
Nice area, many varieties of roses. Several benches. No covered area. No restroom. Its at the Park Presidio bus stop. Next to a small redwood forest.
Very well maintained garden. About a 1 acre in size. About 75 cultivars
Great place with tons of roses.
Always My Happy Place
This is by far my favorite place in all of the bay area. You can visit just before fall you can melt your nose on the flowers and enjoy the smell. I like to take a bottle of water with me and fill it with the rose petals from the ground youll have an amazing rose water.
The Best!
Ok
I love the rose garden so much. Its a piece of heaven in the park. It inspires poetry.How this could get anything less than 5 stars is beyond me. Its FREE!! For a free garden, its magical.I do wish ALL the roses had tags identifying what the name of the rose is though. It seems 60 to 70% of the bushes are tagged. Invariably, its the ones without tags I want to the names!Thank you for not picking the flowers.
The garden is tranquil and beautiful. There are a number of places to sit and smell the super fragrent roses. Plus you cant beat the price. If youre in the park be sure to stop here.The only drawback is on busy days it is crawling with folks taking Instagram photos of the lovely flowers. Personally, I love to see people enjoying the garden so this doesnt ruin it for me, but if this isnt your jam, be sure to visit early in the morning or on less busy days.
I went during December so there wasnt a ton going on here. Maybe during the blooming season it would be a better time to go. But its all part of the Golden Gate Park so its pretty cool in that aspect. Its a peaceful location where you could sit for a while and relax on a sunny day since there are tons of trees to provide shade and comfort. Without the roses blooming though, it wasnt that spectacular.
Very nice, small, garden. Come here on a bright summer day to just chill out for a bit.Also, make sure you go down into the redwoods. Very magical and dark.
Beautiful garden in the middle of the Golden Gate Park. You can sit there after visiting one of the museums nearby.
Nice place and there is bust of T. G. Masaryk
When its good its very very good. Some roses do seem to do better than others, but this is not the most conducive micro-climate. Now, if this place were automagically transported to the Mission... So, if the roses didnt come up to your expectation, check out the redwood grove next door and downhill. Did you know, redwoods are beneficiaries of global warming? BTW, if you are looking for the rest room, its located uphill behind the rose garden.
Beautiful place for taking the wife!
Had different types of roses
Smell the roses .. yes each plot has a different variety.
Its a beautiful place when its in full bloom. The roses are usually around between mid-May through October(?) of every year. If you visit during the spring you wont see them.
I didnt like this rose garden, I was expecting way better garden from Golden Gate Park!!! It was very small and needed a lot more maintenance.
Many different types of roses. Just like lettuce, the iceberg roses are boring.
Came in mid April and there werent any roses bloomed. My wife and I just came from the rose garden in Sacramento and when you come to this one, it is such a let down.
Beautiful place to see enjoy and relax amongst huge selection of Roses.Free from traffic,and from here you can walk to various museums in GG park,Roses,bloom from may till November.I was there today on November 11th 2018 and I could see so many flowers in bloom and still blooming,you can see few pics I took of these roses. Neighbourhood Redwood trees make super backdrop.If you like flowers you will enjoy this place.
Nice peaceful place to relax and enjoy
Beautiful grassy area with a large collection of rose bushes. Very nice to walk through.
Lovely little garden with lots of roses. When they bloom one can spend hours going around smelling them. There is also cute small place for a picnic.
Great collection of different species
This was a beautiful rose garden with a lot of variety of cross breeds and vibrant colors. Loved visiting and taken pictures of the flowers.
Lovely smelling roses.
Beautiful and peaceful
Nice place to take time to smell the roses. Cool little forest right next to it.
Its a serene place to take a break after a day at the California Academy of Science.

You will pass this beautiful garden on the way from polk- to market- castro- haight- up and down to the pacificcoast day and night... by foot... by bike...
