JW Marriott San Francisco Union Square
Stayed at the JW Marriott San Francisco Union Square and found the service to be decent overall. However, the soundproofing was disappointing—noise from the hallway and neighboring rooms carried through easily, which disrupted sleep quality. What really frustrated me was that I accidentally booked an extra night and wanted to check out a day early. Unfortunately, the cancellation policy didn’t allow it—even one day in advance—and I ended up losing nearly $2,000. It felt like a big waste, especially since no warning was given about the strict policy. A more flexible cancellation option would have made a big difference for unexpected changes. Would’ve appreciated better communication or options for guests facing minor schedule adjustments.
University Club of San Francisco
I was a bit nervous going in, having read mixed reviews online, but I couldn’t have been more impressed. This historic building has been thoughtfully restored with elegant, timeless decor that feels both classy and welcoming. The bed was incredibly comfortable—perfect for a good night’s sleep—and our room was surprisingly quiet despite being in the heart of downtown. The shower pressure was outstanding, and the bathroom felt spacious and well-designed. The staff were exceptional, especially the team at the on-site restaurant who went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Right outside the door is a cable car stop, and there are multiple bus routes just steps away—getting around the city is effortless. Overall, this was a standout stay, and I’d absolutely book again without hesitation.
BEI San Francisco, Trademark Collection by Wyndham
Staying at the BEI San Francisco, Trademark Collection by Wyndham was a fantastic experience. Located right in the heart of downtown, it’s incredibly convenient for both sightseeing and business trips—everything is just a short walk away. The room was spotless, modern, and designed with a clean, minimalist aesthetic that feels both professional and comfortable. Housekeeping was thorough, and I appreciated the courier pickup service, which made handling packages during my trip super easy. The hotel has strong security measures in place, which added peace of mind throughout my stay. One thing to note: the area around the hotel can get busy at night, especially with people experiencing homelessness. While the hotel itself is safe, I’d recommend avoiding long walks outside after dark, particularly if you're traveling solo. Overall, this is a top-tier mid-range option in a prime location—excellent value, great convenience, and very well-run. Definitely a solid choice for travelers looking for comfort and accessibility in San Francisco.
Hotel Union Square San Francisco
Staying at Hotel Union Square San Francisco was a great experience overall. The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of Union Square, making it super easy to explore shops, restaurants, and the iconic cable cars on foot. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and spotlessly clean, with all the essentials like a flat-screen TV, free Wi-Fi, and a coffee maker—perfect for both business travelers and tourists. While there’s no on-site restaurant, the rooftop bar more than makes up for it—amazing views, especially at night when the city lights sparkle below. There’s also a small convenience store nearby where you can grab water, sandwiches, soft drinks, pizza, and snacks—very convenient for late-night cravings or quick bites. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful, always ready to assist. The only minor downside is that there are a few people experiencing homelessness on the sidewalk directly outside the hotel, which is something worth noting but doesn’t detract much from the overall stay. All in all, this is a solid choice for anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and a central location in San Francisco.
Kasa la Monarca San Francisco
The property itself is a great stay overall—located right in downtown San Francisco, just steps from MUNI transit lines and surrounded by safe, walkable neighborhoods. I stayed nearly three weeks and really enjoyed the space, kitchen amenities, and cozy lounge area. It feels more like a home away from home than a typical hotel. That said, there's no on-site staff, so any issues aren’t addressed immediately. For example, late one evening around 7 PM, water started dripping from above into my closet. I reported it via text, and while they did call back to assist, the situation ended up requiring me to clean up the mess myself. They offered a room change, but with only two nights left, relocating wasn’t practical. So I had to manage it on my own. If you're looking for quick service, daily housekeeping, or immediate support, this might not be the best fit. But if you value independence, quiet comfort, and a central location without the usual hotel noise, this place delivers. It’s perfect for travelers who prefer self-sufficiency and don’t mind handling small hiccups personally.
Hotel Bijou
Staying at Hotel Bijou in San Francisco was an absolute delight. The location is perfect—right in the heart of the city, with easy access to public transit and all the major attractions nearby. The room was spacious, clean, and well-maintained, making it a comfortable retreat after a day of exploring. While I found it a bit challenging to communicate in English, the check-in process was smooth, and everything else went seamlessly. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the overall atmosphere felt welcoming and peaceful. It's rare to find such a great value in this price range, so I’d highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting San Francisco.
Hotel Triton
Hotel Triton in San Francisco offers a fantastic stay overall—great location, clean rooms, and friendly staff. While the breakfast is quite simple, it's sufficient and satisfying for a quick start to the day. What really stands out is the excellent value for money, fast Wi-Fi, and the convenient access to public transit. The entire experience felt seamless and comfortable, making it an ideal choice for both business and leisure travelers. I’d definitely recommend this hotel and plan to return on my next visit to the city.
Courtyard San Francisco Union Square
Perfect for solo travelers! The hotel is just a 10-minute walk from Union Square, making it super convenient to explore the area on foot. I loved how quiet and clean the room was, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. It’s a great base for enjoying everything San Francisco has to offer without being too far from the action. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the city alone.
Palihotel San Francisco
Staying at Palihotel San Francisco was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The room was incredibly comfortable, with a well-balanced mattress that made for a restful night’s sleep. Located just a short walk from the subway station, it’s super convenient for getting around downtown and exploring all the city has to offer. I loved strolling around the neighborhood in the evening—great vibe, plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The staff were welcoming and helpful, even upgraded my room without any extra charge. Clean bathroom, excellent hot water, and thoughtfully chosen toiletries added to the overall comfort. This place truly delivers great value for money. I’ll definitely be back next time I visit San Francisco!
Hotel Fiona
Hotel Fiona is an absolute must-stay whenever I visit San Francisco. This artist- and writer-themed hotel offers a unique experience with each room thoughtfully designed around a different creative theme—walking into one feels like stepping into a living art exhibit. The lobby even has heating in the summer, which brings a smile to my face (after all, Mark Twain famously said 'The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco'). Despite that quirky detail, the hotel delivers comfort, charm, and excellent value. It's perfectly located, easy to get around, and consistently exceeds expectations. For anyone seeking a distinctive, inspiring stay with a touch of literary and artistic flair, this place is truly unbeatable.
The Pickwick Hotel
Staying at The Pickwick Hotel was an absolute delight! The location is perfect—just a short walk from downtown San Francisco, with public transit easily accessible. The hotel itself is spotless and well-maintained, with a clean, welcoming atmosphere. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful from check-in to check-out—they went the extra mile to make us feel at home. I especially appreciated the complimentary coffee available all day; it was a nice touch for early mornings. The room was cozy, quiet, and beautifully appointed, making it a peaceful retreat after a busy day exploring the city. Plus, there's a Burger King right nearby if you're craving something quick and easy. With such great value, excellent service, and unbeatable convenience, this hotel is a top choice for any visitor to San Francisco. I’d definitely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, hassle-free stay.
Yotel San Francisco
Staying at Yotel San Francisco was an absolute delight from start to finish. The hotel strikes the perfect balance between modern design and warm hospitality. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with a sleek, inviting atmosphere that set the tone for the whole experience. My room was spotless, well-lit, and thoughtfully designed—compact but surprisingly comfortable, with a great bed and excellent soundproofing. Located just steps away from the metro, getting around downtown San Francisco was a breeze. The breakfast spread was impressive: fresh fruit, local coffee, delicious pastries, and plenty of options for every taste. What really stood out, though, was the staff—friendly, efficient, and always ready to help. Whether it was checking in early or asking for recommendations, they went above and beyond. It’s rare to find such a welcoming vibe in a city as fast-paced as San Francisco. This place isn’t just a hotel—it’s a home away from home. I’ll definitely be back.
