Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very accommodating and helpful. My flight came in much earlier and they were able to accommodate me with the rumor before the actual check in time"

Hilton San Francisco Financial District

8/10 Good

"Decent hotel and a short walk to the Piers and Chinatown.Also close by to the BART rail system to and from the airport.Room was clean with basic amenities such as coffee & tea making facilities,fridge and a safe.bathroom/shower was ok size too. The staff on the front desk were ok when I checked in,but upon checking out,no questions were asked about how my stay was or anything,they just took the key card and said I was 'all done'. My room was directly opposite the gym,so could hear people coming and going all day plus at times music being played in the gym.view from the room was a little disappointing too,but I was out exploring most of the time so it didnt matter too much.There was also some building work being done on the entrance whilst I was staying here.On the whole,I would stay here again."

The Marker Union Square San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"I like that the hotel offered real coffee in the lobby for FREE in the mornings. The room was small but charming. Nice shower and good bed. The location is near the theaters and Union Square. The room was clean and the lobby is inviting and comfortable. I’d stay here again and you should too."
