Top San Francisco Hotel Reviews

Fairmont San Francisco

Fairmont San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was good. One nit: the bathroom sink faucet is a bit too close to the edge of the sink. Recommend longer faucets."

Handlery Union Square Hotel

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Without a doubt the best hotel experience I have received. First, shout out to Joyce in front desk. She made checking in a breeze and made me and my fiancé feel welcome. She was the highlight of the day for us. Room was clean and well taken care. The hotel staff from the front desk to the parking lot attendant were all nice and attentive. When I come back to San Francisco, it will be at this hotel."
