I stayed at the Cornell Hotel de France in San Francisco and overall had a nice experience. The room was comfortable and had a lot of charm — definitely a unique, boutique feel. However, it wasn’t quite what I expected in terms of amenities. It’s more old-school, so if you’re looking for modern extras or luxury touches, this might not be the place. That said, the location is decent and the atmosphere is cozy and quiet, which I appreciated. It’s a good spot if you value character over flash.

Lovely but felt more like a bed&breakfast than a hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast was good, including eggs and sausages. Is not wheelchair friendly, otherwise is a cozy place located not too far from the main downtown shopping areas.

This is a convenient location, and relatively quiet. It is a good place for a budget visitor. For business people, this facility is a bit old.

Location was perfect, walked everywhere from Union Square, Chinatown, North Beach, Ferry Building, Caltrain and even to Fisherman’s Wharf. You need your key fob to enter hotel which made me feel safe. Staff were lovely and hotel was cute. It’s old so don’t expect posh and high tech. Breakfast was decent and enough to get you through to lunch. Bread, eggs, cereal, occasionally bacon and ham, coffee and tea. Elevator was old school. Loved it. I would stay again.
