Hotels in Union Square-Nob Hill, San Francisco

The staff could not be more helpful, everything was great!

The best part about the hotel is its location. It's close to all the great shopping areas and restaurants. Really friendly staff. Not the most luxurious hotel but you get your money's worth.

Great place to stay when trying to see San Fran. for the first time. Within walking distance of every bus or trolly one might need.

Excellent ubication, near to everything, good service

We stayed in the tower to have the newer bathrooms with the separate shower. The bathroom toiletries were good quality, so they are worth trying! It was one of the most comfortable beds I have been in. We got a smoking room since it was much cheaper, and there was a strong smell when we got on the floor, but the room wasn't too bad. It would have been better if the windows opened and we could air it out, though. We did a LOT of walking up & down the hills, so if you are out of shape you will have to rely heavily on the cable cars to get around. The location was nice because it was centrally located, but it seemed a little far from everything. Overall a nice hotel and a very comfortable stay!

Beautiful location, and great staff. Everyone was very attentive and polite. The room was very good sized (two queens) and the bathroom and closet could have been rooms by themselves! The only drawback is that the hotel is on top of a steep hill so the walk to it is quite a workout. Taking the cable car is a great option b/c it stops right in front of the hotel.

This hotel was GREAT! The staff was very nice and helpful. If you are parking a car with them, be careful.....they forgot to mention that it is $41 per day! This is a good rate for the area, but it wasnt mentioned that this service was not included in the original cost of the hotel.

Everything ok, but windows and shades were dirty & full of dust. One of the walls had some kind of liquid stain. I talked to the manager & did some cleaning, not all that was needed.

Had a very comfortable stay here. The staff were very friendly and the room was cosy and clean. I had no trouble with noise from other rooms or the street. I didn't go to the dinning room at all, but it always looked busy. Great location - right on the #38 bus line and close to the BART and cable cars.

The Staff was very helpful and the hotel was clean and comfortable

This hotel was in the middle of tons of shopping and public transportation. The service was great and my room was comfortable.

Easy access to Moscone Conference Center. Pulbic transportation at the front dorr.

Neighborhood is a bit rough (at night), not fit for small children, but if your a group of guys they won't bother you. Also the hotel shuttle is pretty reliable so you can use that. Value was good, saved money and was pretty close to the Moscone Center for our convention. Rooms were a little smaller than expected. I was disappointed that there was no pool.

The Hotel was wonderful for our small group of (3) age 50+young ladies for our "Girl's night out". Everything was top notch. Thanks we will be using you again. CB

Our first trip to San Francisco was great and our accomadations were perfect. We were looking for something that was a little more quaint and certainly found it. The rooms are not large but very comfortable and clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. The rates were reasonable. Breakfast and evening wine and snacks included. Met many very nice people from around the world at the evening wine tasting. Location is good and very near many fine restaurants, but a pretty good walk to water. We are walkers so this didn't bother us. I highly recommend this Inn.

From the first step inside the door, this property is great. The gas logs in the fireplace in the room were an unexpected bonus and welcome after a day walking and exploring the city. The in room refrigerator stocked with water, pop, (non alcohol) the coffee bar great in room amenities. The entire public spaces in the property are just charming, the location is good, and the value was certainly there. Even my teen-age grandson thought it was very good- especially the breakfast! And

Hotel was beautiful. Wait staff was very nice. Location was very good and walkable. Area overall was great

Hotel was great, prefect location for easy access to Union Square, North Beach, running along the waterfront. Staff as very friendly and helpful, property is in great shape, gym is really good for hotel gym Would absolutely stay here again

This was a nice boutique hotel in a great location. The lobby was undergoing renovations (Feb 2012) but otherwise it was fine.

We had never been to San Fracisco and were happy to see this hotel was in a perfect location to sightsee. You are very close to everything. The accommodations are modest but clean. I would stay at this hotel again.

The staff was friendly, courteous and efficient. Very accommodating. The room was clean and comfortable. I really enjoyed my stay.

Clean and well located, this hotel has a nice crowd, fireplace and wine hour.

Good location, walking distance to everything. For the time we spent in the room it was a good experience. The receptionist was very friendly and informative.

The hotel was clean and the staff friendly and helpful. The room was stuffy though and the windows didn't have screens in them which made me a little nervous about keeping it wide open. Also the bed was located up against the window so I couldn't have it opened too far at night.

Great location and good service. Rooms are modern, lobby needs some updating. Rooms are cleaned well, don't feel sorry leaving a tip.

Clean, comfortable room, moderate priced, good location. Close to MUNI and BART lines for easy transportation.

The location is great. It was super easy to find your way to anything in the city. This group of hotels is a great way to experience San Fran.

My boyfriend and I stayed at this hotel for a night when we were seeing music at the Bill Graham Civic Center. A few blocks from the hotel is the Tenderloin, which is a sketchy area, but nothing to be too worried about it. A few blocks in the other direction is the heart of Union Square, so it's actually a great location! The hotel is clean and has a unique style. It's a boutique hotel so basically it is just a really old hotel that is remodeled with new decor and paint. I like this style, though, so I enjoyed it!. We ate at Colibri Mexican Restaurant next to the hotel, but I wouldn't recommend it. It's overpriced and the food does not live up to the cost. I would definitely stay at the the Hotel Diva again. It was perfect for a one-night stay. The only downfall was that the hotel did not have toothbrushes or toothpaste, but there's a Walgreens one block away if you forget anything!

All in all, I enjoyed our stay at the Steinhart, but I did not fully understand going in that this place is really not a hotel. I guess they used to have a policy of a minimum stay of 30 days which later got changed to 7, but now this option comes up for shorter stays (we were there for 4 days) even though the management has not adjusted their procedures to account for people who are using it as a short term hotel.We arrived at 2:00 pm to find the door locked. We called the number for the sister hotel and were told they would try to locate the manager who was there somewhere. That never happened but fortunately another guest let us in so we could at least get our baggage off the street. When the manager showed up a few minutes later, she told us about the codes for the door and that if we ran out of toilet paper we could buy some at the shop up the street because the building only supplies your first one. I guess that makes sense if your are renting an apartment for a month, but is a little weird for a hotel. Similarly, there is no hair dryer and only 2 little bottles of shampoo per stay!!Overall, the place is a bit grubby (the fan in our bathroom had clearly not been cleaned in months) ...but on the plus side, you get a lot of space for your money, the neighborhood is convenient and you get to pretend you actually live there as you shop for tp with the natives.I was also really unhappy with the first one bedroom they gave us because there was lots of space but nowhere to actually sit except for one very soiled loveseat in the living room and the bathroom fan sounded like a train arriving. But the manager did offer to show me another unit which was one floor up and better set up. My conclusion is that my initial poor assessment of the Steinhart had more to do with inadequate description [...] site which categorizes it along with real hotel hotels.For the price, I was happy to make my own bed and reuse towels and I really liked being able to have a few meals at home..I just wish I had arrived with a better understanding of what I had actually booked.

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It is more of a unit than a hotel as it has a kitchen, fridge, microwave etc so we enjoyed the opportunity to prepare our own meals after a month of travelling and eating out. The hotel is like a restored older style place that we though was quite funky and retro. The bed is hidden and folds down from the wall which was cool. The room wasn't airconditioned but we were very content as it was cold even in summer in san francisco. The hotel is within walking distance of most places providing that you consider yourself active. Most places were within a half hour walk which we enjoyed. The hotel staff were more than friendly and happy to help with any request.

decor and location nice room was average. For over $300 per night i expected a bit more. wi fi very fast though.

Great experience at this hotel. Lovely lobby; professional, friendly, and accomodating staff; free apples at the front desk. Enjoyed the lounge on the top floor; romantic and great view of SF. Room very large, clean and comfortable for two with great view of downtown SF. Not too bad of a walk to Chinatown, Financial District, and Fisherman's Wharf (I walked to all three and back). Price for overnight parking quite steep (eek!). Would come back.

Loved how central the hotel was & despite warnings about the Tenderloin area, felt totally safe even at night. The pool area was great and so relaxing to have a nice little grassy & peaceful area to get away from the city hubbub. The only thing that was a bit off was the check in time. When we arrived our room wasn't ready so we came back 2 hours later and it still wasn't ready. But we just relaxed around the pool area with a couple of beers until everything was set. Will totally stay here again.

After driving through the area & checking into the hotel I must admit I cried! The nice guy on reception had said not to be intimidated by the area so my husband suggested we go for a walk, after 2 blocks I pleaded with him to go back to the hotel & get the car. . . .we did. At this point I didn't want to stay in San Francisco at all (we are a british couple on a 4 week trip around California) From then on though everything just seemed to get better, once we had figured that I was really not comfortable walking around there it was all ok. You just have to set your own limits and work within that. The hotel itself is a real haven. Our room was spotless, the staff were all really nice & the reception staff in particular seem to be chosen for their cheerful attitudes. Although we did not get a chance to go in the pool it looked lovely & was nice to walk round it after a day in the city on the way to our room.

Very nice location about 10-12 minutes walking to union square. nice one to stay.

Stayed for one night to take an exam in the city early the next morning. Courteous staff, decent room, excellent price-value ratio-- no complaints here.

Galleria was a great place to stay. Close to downtown stores and cable cars, excellent places to eat. Also close to the Muni and Bart Transits. If you like to shop this is the hotel to stay at. Hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. Our room was small but most important very clean and the bed was comfortable. I love that this Hotel old but renovated nicely. There is a community room for the guests to use, if you didn't bring your computer there are two Apple computers there with a printer. Our room was very quiet so we got a good nights sleep. Next time we go to SF we will stay @ the Galleria.

We really enjoyed our stay! The room was very clean and comfortable. We stayed three nights and enjoyed the friendly and helpful staff at the desk and at the door. They were very helpful giving us great guidance to find out where we needed to go. The lobby was very pretty and it was a comfortable place to hang out. great price for our San Francisco stay!!!

Loved this place! Country French feel with older furniture and no one bothers you, come and go as you please as concierge two doors down in sister hotel but they always helpful. Soft drinks and tea/coffee available all day and always fresh cookies and newspapers. Wine and nibbles in afternoon. Great breakfast with wide range to suit all and freshly prepped. I had a queen room with nice fireplace and well heated. No view from room and no widescreen tv but hey I came to SF to be by this lovely city by the bay and was not disappointed. The hotel is just up from union square and a couple of steep hills to climb or get cable which runs just two blocks down but sf is hilly so you expect this. Lots of diners and restaurants in a three block radius.

The hotel was very nice and at a teriffic location to local attractions. 3 blocks to cable cars, union square, china town. amenities included breakfast, supply of bottled water and soda, apples, cookies, and an evening wine and snack hour & half. Room was roomy with sitting chairs, fire place and many shelves for storage. Coffee provided in room. we would definitely stay here again and would recommend it for older couples with no kids. Floors are wooden, so early risers or night owls are audible. one loud nightclub at back of hotel had some howlers at 2AM on two nights. Otherwise with location of room, noise was at a minimum.

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The location does not get any better. The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms are small but to be expected at an older property such as this. The elevator was also small, slow and could only hold 4 people but so what?!?!? It was a 10 min walk from the Bart which made it even more attractive vs paying sky high prices at other nearby hotels. I would stay here again.

the location is perfect. we can walk to a lot of great SF locals from the hotel. we did not like our room so they upgraded us to a corner room on the 6th floor that looked over geary. that was sweet! free, good breakfast ,staff is great.. we stay here because there are no surprises. just good service and a great room.

We spent two days in San Francisco unfortunately the hotel we were staying at for the first night was not available the second night. I found the Serrano Hotel a week before and wasn't expecting much. But to my suprise the hotel was beautiful and well maintained. The staff was always freindly. This hotel is on my short list for future visits.

Das Hotel befindet sich an einer super Lage. Das Personal war hervorkommend. Doch wurden wir während dem ganzen Aufenthalt nicht darauf aufmerksam gemacht, dass man Abends kostenlos Wein trinken kann und am morgen Wasser und Tee in der Lobby zur Verfügung stehen. Unser Zimmer war nicht so gross, dafür das Bett um so grösser. es war sehr komfortabel. Das Bad ist auch klein.

Decent size rooms, very comfortable bed in a great location.

The King George was an excellent buy, especially compared with my meeting hotel, which was one block away and would have charged nearly $400 a night for a single. The room at King George was small but adequate and perfectly neat and clean.

Our stay at Hotel Vertigo was fantastic! The staff was extremely helpful and nice...I mean everyone! Even the maintanence guy gave us a wonderful suggestion of a place to go at the "Starlight" down on Powell! Gregory at the front desk was exceptional as well. The hotel was a nice mixture of old and hip/contemporary. Nothing too over-the-top, just about right. The location was about a 50-minute walk to the Wharf (if you're the athletic type, saves money) and close to Union Square. You can take a quick Muni ride to the ballpark too. Never got hassled by anyone else anywhere on the street or inside somewhere. Everyone was suprising friendly. The shuttle Gregory hooked us up with only had a few stops before the airport and was cheaper than a cab....by alot! Thanks Hotel Vertigo!

Room was great, clean and very cool decoration. Try and get a room with out an adjacent door b/c I could hear my neighbors phone go off every minute! Otherwise people were very helpful and friendly, convinient location and great price.

Wonderful small hotel with excellent staff. Lots of personal attention and great perks, breakfast in the morning and wine and cheese every evening. Quiet, yet located very centrally for shopping and convenient public transportation.

Great location with extremely personable service that reminds us of Paris - the innkeeper was around for daily breakfast and evening snack and was sure fresh fruit out all day. The front desk had many helpful suggestions to help us get around. We would stay again - Be aware that the rooms are well appointed but small and not air conditioned!
