Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and comfortable. You can open the window and use the fan provided, which kept the room at a comfortable temperature. Liquid soap and lotion were provided, as was shampoo and conditioner. The staff were very friendly and greeted guests with a helpful attitude. The Chancellor is right in the middle of everything, with shopping areas nearby and a cable car stop right across the street. There is a bar in the lobby should you wish for a drink. Also complimentary coffee and cookies, and a cold water dispenser. A nice restaurant, Sears Fine Food, is right next door and you can get breakfast, lunch, and dinner there. If you choose to use public transportation, the Chancellor is down the street from the bus stop on Stockton and Sutter, and the Muni stop on Powell St."

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

8/10 Good

"Our family of 5 - 2 adults and 3 kids - stayed here for one night in two adjoining rooms and it was nice, but one of them was musty and smelled weird. Not a huge issue, but for as much as we payed, we were a bit disappointed. And they did have breakfast included, but the line was ridiculously long to stand in to wait to get into the dining area."

Hyatt Regency San Francisco Downtown SOMA

10/10 Excellent

"Room, staff, check in process was easy going! Loved the view from our room but I will say the check out process took some time.. waited 15+ minutes for the elevators to reach our floor, but every time they’d open it was full so my partner and I along with another group of people decided to take the stairs then we proceed to wait 20-30 minutes for valet to pull up with the vehicle. Although it took a while, staff was still nice and attentive."

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The view was fun! Good place to stand for a cool breeze and people watching. The hotel is located within walking distance of shopping and food. We enjoy a long hike, so we walked all the way to the warf and Coit Tower in one day. It is a comfortable place to come back to after a long day of exploring."
