I booked this place thinking the rate was around $78 per night, but ended up being over $220—way higher than expected. I couldn’t cancel after booking through the platform, so I had no choice but to stay. The room was outdated, with chipped paint and visible stains on the walls. No ice was provided, and the shower water was only lukewarm—never got hot. The location is solid in downtown San Francisco, and having a parking lot was a plus. But for that price, there are definitely better options available. I wouldn’t come back, especially when you can find much more comfortable and reasonably priced stays nearby.
Absolutely loved my stay at Cathedral Hill Hotel! The location is perfect—just a short walk from downtown San Francisco, with easy access to public transit and plenty of great dining options nearby. The hotel itself is clean, well-maintained, and has a welcoming atmosphere. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit. My room was spacious, comfortable, and quiet—great for a good night's sleep. I especially appreciated the delicious breakfast spread with fresh local treats like homemade pancakes and freshly squeezed juice. It’s rare to find such a high-quality experience at this price point. I’ll definitely be returning next time I’m in town.
Staying at this Motel 6 right on Great Highway in San Francisco was a surprisingly pleasant experience. The location is unbeatable—just steps away from the Pacific Ocean, with a gentle dune line blocking most of the waves’ noise, so it’s quiet and peaceful, especially at night. The rooms are basic but clean and well-maintained. One thing to note: the heating system isn’t very strong, so it can feel chilly during cooler evenings—bringing a sweater or extra blanket is a good idea. What stood out was the payment process—no deposit required, just pay your initial amount directly toward the room rate, which made everything smooth and hassle-free. No hidden fees, no surprises. For travelers who value simplicity, affordability, and proximity to the ocean, this is a solid choice. I’d definitely stay here again if I’m back in San Francisco.
I stayed at Motel 6 San Francisco – Civic Center and was pleasantly surprised by the convenient location—just a short walk from the civic center and easily accessible via public transit. The room was clean, basic, and perfectly adequate for a quick overnight stay. I appreciated the straightforward, no-frills approach, which fits well with the budget-friendly vibe. However, I did notice a small discrepancy: I booked with breakfast included, but it wasn’t available upon arrival. The front desk staff were very understanding and apologized sincerely, even offering to help with recommendations nearby. While the lack of breakfast was disappointing, their professionalism helped ease the frustration. Overall, if you're looking for a simple, affordable place to stay close to downtown San Francisco, this motel delivers solid value—especially if you’re not counting on a free morning meal.
I was generally satisfied with my stay, though I did encounter a minor issue upon arrival. My first room had a strong smell of smoke, which was disappointing since the hotel claims all rooms are non-smoking. When I brought this up to the front desk staff, they initially denied it was possible—until I insisted on either a room change or a refund. They quickly accommodated me and moved me to a different room, which smelled perfectly fine. While the initial experience wasn’t ideal, I appreciate that the team responded promptly and made things right. A little more attention to checking room conditions before check-in could prevent such issues in the future. Overall, the motel offers good value for money, and its location near Lombard Street makes it convenient for exploring downtown San Francisco—especially if you're using public transit.
Staying at the Fairmont San Francisco was an exceptional experience. While the hotel doesn't have the ultra-modern flair of newer properties, its timeless elegance and impeccable upkeep truly shine through. The rooms were spotless, well-maintained, and exuded a sense of quiet luxury. What stood out most was the consistently high standard in service, cleanliness, and location—everything felt thoughtfully curated. For the price, the level of attention to detail and guest comfort was outstanding. It’s rare to find such a well-rounded, reliable experience, and I’ll definitely be returning on my next visit to San Francisco. Highly recommend for anyone seeking genuine quality and value.
Staying in room 4105 was an absolute highlight of my trip to San Francisco. The view from the window is nothing short of spectacular—Transamerica Pyramid, Coit Tower, Alcatraz Island, and even the Golden Gate Bridge all within sight. What truly stood out, though, was the personal touch: every staff member greeted me by name, making me feel genuinely recognized and valued. It’s been a long time since I’ve experienced service this thoughtful and warm. From check-in to check-out, every interaction felt seamless and genuine. Plus, being just steps away from the BART station makes getting around the city a breeze. This hotel isn’t just luxurious—it’s unforgettable. I’ll definitely be back.
Staying at the Palace Hotel, a Luxury Collection Hotel in San Francisco was an absolute highlight of my trip. The location couldn't be better—just a short walk from Union Square, making it easy to explore shopping, dining, and local attractions. The hotel exudes old-world elegance with its grand European palace-inspired design, creating a truly luxurious atmosphere from the moment you step inside. The rooms are spacious, beautifully furnished, and incredibly comfortable, with high-quality bedding that made for a restful night's sleep.

For anyone visiting San Francisco, this is not just a place to stay—it’s an experience worth every penny.
Staying at the Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco was an exceptional experience. The room was immaculate, with modern amenities and a spacious layout—perfect for a suite. We were greeted with fresh fruit and a personalized welcome note, which added a nice touch of luxury. The front desk isn’t located on the ground floor, so you need to take the elevator directly to the reception area—but it’s well-organized and efficient. The hotel's location is unbeatable: just a short 800-meter walk to the Moscone Center, making it ideal for business travelers. One downside is that breakfast isn’t included, not even a buffet option—so we had to order separately. However, everything else more than made up for it. The neighborhood felt safe and clean, with no visible homelessness, which gave peace of mind. From service to ambiance, every detail reflects the brand’s high standard. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting San Francisco.
We arrived at the hotel after 10 PM and were hungry, but there wasn't any dining option nearby. Thankfully, the front desk staff—a kind Asian colleague—suggested using Uber Eats for food delivery. It was a lifesaver! My meal arrived just 10 minutes later, exactly when I needed it. The room itself was spotless, spacious enough for our needs, and very comfortable. Everything about the stay felt seamless and well thought out. Excellent service and a great location in Union Square make this hotel a top pick for future visits.
Hotel Drisco truly lives up to its reputation as one of San Francisco's finest boutique hotels. From the moment we arrived, every detail felt thoughtfully curated—elegant decor, impeccable service, and a serene atmosphere that instantly made us feel at home. The room was stunning, with luxurious bedding that offered an incredibly comfortable night's sleep. We were especially impressed by the breakfast—fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. Every element, from the quiet ambiance to the attention to detail, contributed to a memorable stay. The location is perfect for exploring the city, with public transit just steps away. We’ve already started planning our return visit. Thank you for creating such a special experience in one of our favorite cities.
I've visited San Francisco multiple times over the years and stayed at several upscale hotels, but this one truly stands out as the best experience I've had in the city. The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of Ghirardelli Square, steps away from great dining, shopping, and iconic sights. The room was spacious, beautifully designed, and impeccably clean. Staff went above and beyond to make my stay memorable with genuine hospitality. From the moment I arrived to the time I left, everything felt seamless and luxurious. This isn't just a hotel—it's an experience. I'll definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone visiting San Francisco.
