Timbri Hotel San Francisco, Curio Collection by Hilton
Staying at Timbri Hotel San Francisco was an absolute delight from start to finish. The modern design is sleek and inviting, with rooms that are both stylish and incredibly comfortable—perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring the city. The rooftop restaurant is truly exceptional: fantastic food, creative cocktails, and panoramic views of downtown SF that make every meal feel special. The staff go above and beyond with their warm hospitality—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. Don’t let a few negative reviews about the neighborhood worry you; it’s a temporary situation, and the hotel itself is secure and well-maintained. Plus, being steps away from all transportation options—including Muni, BART, and ride-share zones—makes getting around the city effortless. This place offers such great value and charm, I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting San Francisco.

The location is excellent for exploring downtown or nearby attractions, and the overall experience was outstanding. Highly recommend staying here if you're visiting the area.
Canopy by Hilton San Francisco SoMa
Although my original room type wasn’t available upon check-in, the hotel kindly upgraded me to two standard rooms at no extra cost—such a thoughtful gesture! The rooms were spotless, well-maintained, and had all the essentials: comfortable beds, modern fixtures, and quality toiletries. I appreciated the attention to detail and cleanliness throughout. Located just steps from the BART station, getting around San Francisco was super convenient. Great value for the price, excellent service, and a really welcoming atmosphere. Definitely will be returning next time I visit the city—highly recommend!
Hilton San Francisco Union Square
The location couldn’t be better—right in the heart of downtown San Francisco, steps away from shopping, dining, and transit. I was pleasantly surprised when my room was ready early upon arrival, which made the whole check-in process smooth and stress-free. One of the biggest perks? The Big Bus tour picks up and drops off right at the hotel entrance—no need to worry about transfers or timing. The only minor note is that the bathroom design felt a bit unusual: the floor has a slight slope, and the sink has an odd shape, but it didn’t affect functionality. Overall, the staff were friendly, the room was clean and well-maintained, and the convenience of being centrally located makes this a top choice for any traveler visiting San Francisco.
Hampton Inn San Francisco/Downtown-Convention Center
Staying at this hotel was an absolute delight. The room was spotlessly clean, spacious, and very comfortable. I especially appreciated the included breakfast—worth every penny! The breakfast sandwich was delicious, hearty, and fresh. I’d seen some reviews mentioning homeless people around the area, but during my stay, I didn’t see anything concerning at all. The neighborhood felt safe and quiet. It’s also super convenient for downtown attractions and public transit. Overall, this place offers great value and a wonderful experience—definitely coming back next time.
Dakota Hotel
We stayed in Glasgow for a few days and stopped by this hotel for breakfast—had no expectations going in, but was pleasantly surprised. The menu options were somewhat limited, but the warm welcome and excellent service from Thomas made all the difference. He went above and beyond to make our morning special. It’s a hidden gem with a welcoming vibe, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone passing through.
Kailash Hotel
On Friday, April 21st at 10:15 AM, a guest from another building at the hotel climbed over the fence between units 179 and 173, entered our private driveway area, then climbed over our fence and left toward Wiese Street, heading toward 16th Street. We immediately called 911. The situation was alarming and unsettling. While police responded promptly, the incident raised serious concerns about property security and safety protocols. It's important to note that making assumptions based on someone's background is not only inappropriate but also harmful. As guests, we expect the hotel to maintain a secure environment for all. We hope management will take immediate action to improve fencing, surveillance, and overall safety measures to prevent future incidents.
