Pros: Amazing service and experience! We we're there for our honeymoon and loved every moment. The staff went out of there way to help us.
Excellent
8,3
Pros: Nice rooms. Polite staff. Nice bathrooms. Everything worked without an issue.
Cons: At Reservation, called the 800 number. I was told they only had two suites available. No rooms. Two minutes later, I went on Kayak and booked two rooms with no issue. Service was in no way exceptional. It was a little irritating that bell desk couldn't get cab. Food/bar is terrible Surcharge for internet access is ludicrous
Excellent

Pros: Very friendly staff, great service. The access to Equinox is fabulous! Prime, prime location--the best!!
Cons: In-room dining is awful. I had breakfast twice, and was severely disappointed at the outrageous price for the poor, poor quality of every aspect of the food--coffee is burnt and thick like mud, toast burnt, side vegetables unbelievably expensive with NO quality. The fresh orange juice is good. And that's it. Otherwise, the hotel is just wonderful.

Pros: Location is perfect, with easy access to public transport, taxi/Uber/Lyft. Cleanliness. The best gym I've ever seen in a hotel. New and functional equipment.
Cons: That might be a bit noisy as the fire department likes to turn on the sound, and people like to sound the horn in San Francisco, but they do it everywhere and anytime.

Pros: I usually prefer to stay at the Nikko for it’s excellent health club, particularly the pool- hard to find in San Francisco. The rooms are very comfortable and the staff are excellent too. I also like the Japanese food.

Pros: Location is convenient
Cons: This is not an inexpensive hotel yet we were asked to pay 25$ to use the gym and pool. I find this ridiculous since we were only going to use it for 1 hour. The hotel is poorly unkept and it's very visibly run down. The staff is friendly and accommodating. I wouldn't stay here again because it's not worth the expense.

Pros: very friendly, helpful staff. Great Union Square location
Cons: Valet parking and hotel entrance around the back of the building. Both the party we were meeting and us pulled up front to what looked like the front of the hotel, was nothing to indicate where to go. Some signage would be helpful. Great workout area but having to pay an additional $25 to use felt excessive.

Pros: I stayed at the Nikko Hotel for one night during the Nike Women's Half Marathon. Not only was a beautiful, and luxurious hotel but it was also in the perfect location in Union Square for the Nike Women's Half Marathon and Expotique. The customer service was phenomenal and they even extended check out for NWM participants. This was great because it enabled us to shower before our journey home. Thank you Nikko Hotel for such top notch accommodations! I will definitely stay here again next year!

10,0
Pros: **keep in mind, review is for guests who didn't park at all** Shower is by far the best of the hotels I have stayed at. The room was clean (but small, true to San Fran /Japanese style). Bed was also very comfortable. TV was small (~42 inches) but had a nice stand that could be angled alnost 180 degrees. Cleaning staff was very thorough and even organized our toilet trees for us that we left on the sink (I thought this was cool, others may see it differently). Overall clean and fancy facilities, nice staff. Good location in reference to Union Square.
Cons: We witnessed someone getting beat up by at least 4 individuals in an ally right across the street from the hotel. We still didn't feel unsafe in the hotel or around San Francisco, but maybe we should have? Other hotels wouldn't be immune to this problem either (to my best estimate). $6 waters in the room. No prices in the gift shop (yes I can afford it, but maybe I don't get the chips for $2.5 and just go for the $3.50 water instead or go to Starbucks that is attached to the hotel for $2 waters).
Excellent
8,3
Pros: Near the cable cars and shopping. Great service and Starbucks in first floor lobby.
Cons: In terms of the neighborhood, the Tenderloin is right next to Uniom Square, has an abundance of homeless people. The bathroom only has a glass sliding door and is not a separate room, and therefore has less privacy. Room could have been slightly bigger.

Pros: I enjoyed the hotel staff. What a wonder job the staff performs to ensure my stay was comfortable and one to remember. In most cases, when I requested services the response time was quick and expedient. If I had a question, the staff went well above my expectations to find a solution or answer. Stay here if you want to just run in auto-pilot and allow the staff of Nikko to do the rest.
Cons: Nothing
Good
7,4
Pros: The location of the hotel is good for getting around
Cons: The walls are thin enough that we could hear our neighbours having sex, and hear exactly what they said to each other... The food was abismal, it was so bad that after one bite of our room service we got rid of it. We expected to be asked about the food, but unfortunately the staff didn’t seem to notice two full meals being essentially untouched.

Pros: Clean rooms. Convenient location in downtown San Francisco.
Cons: The hotel presents itself to be a resort facility and charges accordingly including a resort fee but there are few if any resort features to it. There is no pool or hot tub no view of any sort except going outside, no breakfast available. The rooms are small and it shows that they have been carved out of an old apartment (or office) complex. They have expresso machines in the rooms in place of coffee makers we found them difficult to get them to work.

Pros: Room was large enough ... not huge, but more than enough space for us. The hotel was clean and although elegant, it was comfortable too. Staff was wonderful.

Pros: The room has a very hip vibe that is a hit with my kids ages 12-17. They love it! The hotel is just a block away from the cable car when we came back from a night at the downtown area. No hassle when we went around SF downtown and back. It is also within the activities from the pier. It is far enough from the main noise but near enough for a few minutes walk. Very accessible to all the great restaurants and activities around the area.

Pros: Very luxurious and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially the management. When things went wrong, they were accommodating to benefit me for the inconveniences.
Cons: Upon checking in, they didn't have our room available until the next day. Not sure how that even happens, but after talking to the manager, he miraculously was able to get our room. I had an allergic reaction to the laundry detergent they use on the bed sheets and my eyes swelled up. I was told that if you have allergies, you need to call in advance to make sure they wash the bedding with hyper-allergenic detergent (they normally use Dawn). For the inconveniences, they did comp me my room service.

Pros: I originally was trying to book this hotel via the QANTAS website however they had problems, so I rang the hotel direct and they were most helpful. Not only did they book me in, but they beat the original price and converted it for me to $AUD for my small brain. I drove to SFO from LAX - on arrival bell hop service was excellent, didn't miss any bags or jackets that were in my car. Stayed in the main building - Fairmont Queen room Clean and tidy Free WiFi BathTub Excellent staff Late checkout Food selection and room service Tonga room is a must see Location very central to anywhere you'd like to be in SFO
Cons: The main building although grand, is a little dated. The refurbished rooms are good, but the particular room I was in the door didn't fully open because the wall gets in the way, so for room service the trolley couldn't be wheeled in, food had to be carried in from the door, and there wasn't really any table to put the food on, only the writing desk or the fold out mini bar. I had to call for slippers

Pros: Great views of SF.
Cons: When we got there, the hotel did not have any record of our reservation and they said they were fully booked. We showed them our confirmation from Kayak, and the staff took about 30-60minutes to sort it all out. While they were on the phone, we had lunch in the hotel. They came back and found us a room, and gave us free drinks for the hassle.

Pros: Location
Cons: Parking at $65 a nite is outrageous There were no blankets in the room so I asked for some they came an hour later. I had to call 3 times to get service. Wifi was $14 a day not free.

Pros: Good arrival and wait staff were both friendly and efficient. The door man was great and the team inside were extremely helpful. I have stayed in other SF hotels in the past and Hotel Zelos is a nice addition to the city. City hotel rooms can sometimes be small but the rooms at Zelos are very spacious! I also would like to say thank you for an overall smooth and fun experience! From booking on line with Kayak to speaking directly with the hotel, to checking in & out, everyone was super friendly and consistently would go out of their way to be helpful.
Cons: Mixed message on parking After speaking with associates on two separate occasions. Then the confusion in the garage, mind you I thought I lost my ticket to return however I unpacked it when I arrived back home this evening. There was a problem between the hand written sign in log from the valet and the printed report from the front desk and the hotel's portion of valet claim check system also did not work. I retrieved my vehicle because I brought the only two matching keys and I have matching handmade key chains attached. Breakfast table with two nice chairs rather than a rolling office chair. That was weird. But it was also SF PRIDE weekend so who cares!

It is also very close to a BART station so getting there from the airport is very easy. San Francisco is a surprisingly easy city to drive in as well, though parking is very expensive.
Cons: Though the bed was very comfortable, it was a bit squeaky. Also, being on Market street means that there is a bit of noise but it's not excessive.

Pros: Close to everything in Union Square, clean and nice-looking inside.
Cons: ...but that translates to a little over $300 a night, which isn't really worth it. Avoid it during the conventions in town.

Pros: If you're looking for convenience and a great location with amazing customer service, pay the extra cash and stay at the the Marriott Marquis. The convenience and hospitality here was amazing. I felt like I was treated like a VIP while staying in a basic room. Housekeeping was gracious, and welcoming coming and going every single day. Anytime I needed the smallest of things they were delivered promptly (toothpaste, towels, silverware, soaps, etc). I needed some mail delivered, they took it for me. Anytime my girlfriend and I needed directions or suggestions on great places to go the information desk were our saviors. VERY knowledgeable about the entirety of San Fran. The 55th floor bar has a great view of the city, the bartender was also great. There is a little convenient store as well as Starbucks located on the main floor for convenience. Great hotel!

Cons: They tried to steal my luggage when I first came in, took them over 4 hours to bring my stuff up. I said enough of this bs and went to go down myself and get all my stuff to find it hiding in a room away from everyone else while the guy at the front was telling me "it'll be there shortly were a little backed up". Then to top it all off I find $35 of charges from the hotel of stuff I never used. I've never been so disrespected by a hotel in my life. Shady workers I highly recommend you don't stay here.

Pros: We loved the friendly staff and how close to everything this hotel was. We were in walking distance of everything we wanted to do. The hotel room was beautiful too, newly renovated and very nice!
Cons: All of the addtional fees for parking and "resort fees". Granted we got a deal on the cost of the room, so we're not complaining too much but the actual cost of the rooms are very expensive and then to add over $150 of addtional fees when checking out is a little crazy. But, overall, we would be willing to stay here in the future, if we make it to the west coast again.

Pros: I liked that we were able to find a great place on such short notice. The Manager on Duty, I think her name was Susan, was very helpful after one of the reservation agent accidentally mixed up our checkout time- and another Agent Brandon wasn't very kind to us. I ate most of my meals at the hotel, breakfast lunch and dinner- and I had three different bartender/servers during my stay that were all so very pleasant. Some even gave me directions to buy a hoodie at a nearby store because I didn't realize it would be colder there this time of year still. And the chef made me an awesome salad when I wanted to exchange tuna for chicken on the salad that comes with Lemon Dressing- it was absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend this substitution as the combination of greens and dressing go amazing with Tuna! It will cost you 2 dollars more as Tuna is more expensive (rightfully so) but it I ate the entire thing. I couldn't stop myself.
Cons: Other than the mixup on our checkout time- I was happy with my stay overall.

Pros: We stayed a night since it was near our morning meeting. The layout and lobby is great, and the staff is very welcoming. Unfortunately let down by mediocre room experience (deluxe king) and we could not have a good rest.
Cons: The thermostat in our room was broken and it was way too hot. We tried re-setting it several times but it kept blowing hot air even though it was 75F. It was very difficult to sleep and sweated through the night. The shower pressure was very low. Having both shower head choices was nice, but it was difficult to feel clean because the water pressure was very low and so it took much longer to soap off. For a business hotel, you had to pay for internet. We used a hotspot instead. It felt a bit confused whether it was a luxury hotel or a business hotel, and for the price point I would stay somewhere else that has better value for money. Not having a good night sleep really affected my work day

My stay was for 6 nights and I was only informed that my room would be cleaned on the 5th day when I was checking in. I know this is due to covid and them being careful but which person what to stay in a room that’s not being cleaned?!

Pros: Location is good, close to everything
Cons: I booked this reservation months in advance for a large group, and still, upon check-in there was alot of miscommunication and confusion about the reservation (how many rooms, names on the reservation, etc). Staff was not warm or particularly helpful at all, there was an obvious lack of hospitably and willingness to help that you receive at most hotels. The hotel itself is average, its very old and outdated inside, the walls are thin so u hear conversations next door, and the rooms are small. There were very limited hours for the restaurant/lounge downstairs, and overall was just someolace you'd go to sleep and thats it. It really was just ok. Many other hotels in the area that offered more for the price. I wouldnt stay there again.

Pros: The location of this hotel is great with walking access to the waterfront, Union Square, cable cars, and public transport. The staff was excellent and very attentive. The room was everything we wanted, plus a great view. The restaurant had a good selection. The night club was really fun. We would definitely stay here again.

Pros: Historic Great location Staff was super friendly and helpful especially the valet

Pros: Historic hotel on Nob Hill. Friendly and helpful staff! Comfortable beds. Beautiful suite and view of the city. Able to open windows for fresh air/breeze. Keurig available for morning coffee/tea. Electronic “do not disturb” and intercom for door security. Convenient to Masonic Center concert venue and two cable car lines. Restaurant choices conveniently located in hotel and nearby (2-3 blocks).
Cons: Not a big complaint or huge discomfort, but we like to sleep in a cool room but the thermostat would not let us lower temp below 60 degrees.

Pros: Location was very central - minutes from Union Square. Staff was very accommodating, very helpful and friendly. Beds were very comfortable. Unique look in the rooms - loved the character of the place.
Cons: No hair dryer in bathroom (didn't matter to me but it may be a surprise if you're counting on having one). Wouldn't mind a few extra places to hang clothes, towels, etc.
Excellent
9,4
Pros: Loved the boutique vibe that the hotel has, it seems SF is lacking modern hotels that are similar to the Ace and plentiful of tacky hotels. The decor is very minimal, with concrete floors- it feels similar to a loft you would want to live in. The restaurant downstairs had a really great brunch and the staff were very friendly. The actual location is pretty central, so it's not that difficult to leave the touristy area of Union Square.
Cons: There wasn't a mention of the $45 (plus tax) for the valet. So that got a bit expensive. You also have to call 30 minutes ahead. The shower is also a lukewarm temperature. And a bit difficult to work with it being stuck.

Pros: Location
Cons: Air temperature is controlled by the front desk. You will need to call them to adjust (really, are we in the 1970s???)-unbelievable). The air condition smelled like mildew and gave me a headache the following day. My roommate kept coughing the whole night which we suspect was due to the mildew coming out of the A/C vent. Bathroom floor was not cleaned. Found gross hair (and other too gross to mention) on the floor. Corners underneath the sink have dust balls. the bathroom toilet plastic seat was burned that it looked like you poured acid on it. I cannot believe they have not replaced it. The electric plug in the bathroom is not secured and about to fall off, the hair dryer would not turn on because of the faulty plug. (Again, really????) So disappointing as when I think of Hilton, I think safe, clean and decent...not the SF union square. Front desk was very unfriendly. No welcome or "enjoy your stay" greeting. He couldn't find our reservation. When I showed him the confirmation number, he gave me the look and said "oh that's hotel.com's"...whatever that meant. As if he was treating us 3rd class as we had not booked it directly with them. After a few minutes, he finally found our reservation. Again, very unpleasant.

Pros: Very clean, comfortable room. Location was great. Conference facilities were very versatile.
Cons: There was a whistling sound coming from my window when the wind blew. The window was fixed, so it was not slightly open. The sound made it difficult to sleep at night, so I had to put on a white noise maker from my smartphone to be able to sleep. No free wifi in conference facilities was annoying.

Pros: The rooms are very small, the water pressure in the shower was extremely low it took me 30 minutes to take a normal shower when usually it takes me 10 minutes. It is very unusual to when the room dose not have a lock on the door I find that out after walking in to the restroom and embarrassing myself in front of my coworker room has two beds that means there is more than one person sleeping in your room that one person doesn't have to be a family member this case you was my coworker

Pros: long lines at front desk and crowded lobby--i believe b/c free wifi was only available in the lobby. room and bathroom was clean, well-kept and quiet overall. some difficulty in adding people to the room and getting a mini-fridge in the room for medical purposes. definitely a destination for conferences and business meetings.

Cons: There was no fridge in the room and parking was pretty outrageous, $47/day plus an $8 parking garage fee?!

Pros: Although the hotel is getting an exterior facelift, the facilities were great. They are affiliated with the Marriott and Marriott rewards program. There is a nice restaurant and bar adjacent to the lobby area. Our room was spacious and clean. Also, there was free wifi throughout the property, which didn't need a password, very convenient for jumping on and off of the network. There was a little doggy bowl at the front desk, so I would assume that they are pet friendly.
Cons: The bell desk and front desk were separated by a huge pillar which made it awkward as you could only see one of them at a time during check in/out. I'd imagine that this is very cumbersome during busy operations. maybe they will be addressing this issue during their remodel.

Pros: Staff was nice and tried hard. I loved the coffee in the mornings, the loaner umbrellas, and the quiet rooms.

You have to call up for more than the 2 creamers for your coffee when they leave 3 packs of coffee. The noise was absolutely terrible as the bus station was right outside our window.

Pros: Great location, nice room, comfy bed, plenty of privacy. The fire pits out front are a lovely touch; we enjoyed warming up by them and drying our shoes off before heading in after exploring the rainy city on foot.
Cons: We were on the second floor and there was too much light in the room; between the bright hallway lights seeping in through the door and the pool lights glaring in through the windows, it was hard to get the room truly dark. That may not have been as much of an issue on a higher floor, though. Also, $50 for one night of parking!? That's half of what the room cost!

Pros: Hop-skip-n-a-jump away from the piers. Nice sized room. Friendly staff and gave us 1.5 hour late checkout which made life much better on this trip.
Cons: Odd layout. Only one entrance, it was like 1/3 of a block in- which means you have to walk [on average] > 1/4 a block after entering lobby to get to one's room. Also i wish the website had mentioned the $50 a day for parking[we were in town for 24 hours.] This might have been the going rate for Fisherman's Wharf but this would've made the difference between this place and a place nearly $40-60 cheaper: longer walk to piers but saving $40-50/night is a big difference. Might not have been the hotel's fault maybe the booking site should've mentioned this, but still this is important information. Other complaint, probably more universal: really going to charge $14 to use hotel WiFi in one's room?! In 2015? First time rentimg hotel in San Francisco. Is this the norm? Free on lobby, though. Very not cool.

Cons: The Kayak lists parking as an amenity. This is false. Ended up leaving the hotel immediately after getting my room keys from a jerk at the front desk and learning I could not park anywhere. Even when I attempted to pay for their valet parking which cost over 50% of the value of the room, I was denied service due to the fact that I have a pet in the car (a pet that would have stayed in the car over night). I'm now going through hoops and loops to get a refund (surprise! So far no and later a weak maybe), since the booking was made based on false information on the Kayak listing. Can you guys help facilitate the refund?

Pros: I stayed at the hotel the night before and after my trip to Burning Man. It has a great location, just a block from where I caught the Burner Express. It's also right on the subway and streetcar lines, and within walking distance to a lot of shopping. The hotel itself looks like an elegant hotel that has seen better times. The lobby is highly decorated in an old style and is beautiful. The hotel is very large. It was quite a walk to my room. The room itself was fine, but nothing too special. There is a Starbucks and a nice restaurant attached to the hotel.
Cons: When I arrived the first day in middle of the afternoon, they were a little understaffed, and at one point there was a about a 5 minute span that no one was at the desk to check people in.

Pros: It is a historic hotel, so that is charming.
Cons: The rooms are small, even the beds are small and short. I hope you like it close and cozy with your partner. Our room smelled really bad like urin, so we changed the room. But even the other room had a wiered smell. I don't know how to describe it. The bathroom is o.k. the tub was old and yellow but you saw it was cleaned up. What made me really angry was the parking situation! I paied 38 dollars plus tax per night. I mean you are in San Francisco where you can see broken windows in cars all over the place. It is not like you can have your car on the street or somewhere else. Especially cause Market Street is not a good area at all. You shouldn't go out there at night. So for me it was much saver to place the car at the hotel but it was to expensive!

Pros: Nothing, I can't even say location because anywhere in SF is easily accessible via taxi.
Cons: Dirty room, beds you can feel the springs in, poor customer service. Just because a hotel reports its a historic hotel does not mean room remains outdated and uncomfortable.

Pros: Location. Easy approach from the south. Close proximity to public transport (BART and MUNI entrance is a steps from the front door). Nice bed and bedding. Old school decor and large rooms. Helpful staff though some weren't particularly friendly.
Cons: Wonderful decor looked worn in places. Slow, crowded lifts (didn't appear all were running). This survey is poorly written.

Pros: I liked that it was close to the muni which made travel easy. The rooms were nice enough and comfortable. It was a quiet hotel and historic restorations were nice.
Cons: I did not like the location being in the tenderloin for the price. A block in any direction would make ty out feel unsafe. Especially at night. There was construction immediately next door which no site listed and they started at 7am on a Saturday morning. The staff could have been more courteous and informative. The ac stopped working after the second night.

Pros: + THE STAFF: Every single staff member we encountered went above and beyond their duties to be very friendly and extremely helpful! + THE BEDS!!!: Oh my gosh those beds and those pillows were heavenly! + THE HISTORY: I initially chose to stay here because of the hotel's great history, but I was thrilled to see that on the Mezzanine level they actually have a "Hall of History" with wonderful artifacts from the Whitcomb's heyday along with a couple of glass cabinets throughout the lobby area with even more old artifacts. There is also an art gallery dedicated to a couple of the local theaters/acts with pictures etc, that date from the early Jazz age to around WW2. The Hotel Whitcomb served as the City Hall after the 1906 earthquake while the original one was being rebuilt, and I read that there are still jail cells that in the basement that you can see if you ask, but unfortunately I didn't have time to do that this time but I'll be sure to ask next time because I will definitely be coming back
Cons: - THE AREA: The traffic is atrocious! It is so easy to get lost because of all the one way streets and no left turns etc.

Pros: The only I like was the location
Cons: I wasn't pleased with the costumer service experience. The shower curtain was on the floor, and the room wasn't ready. They didn't have towels. The elevators are beyond slow and their inspection expired since 2012. The fire alarm went off 2 times. and they were not prepare to evacuate. the stairs are narrow and the communication wasnt great. Uncomfortable beds, and noisy

Pros: Nothing. Would never recommend this hotel.
Cons: The hotel is surrounded by a large homeless population right outside. Parking is an additional $51 a day that was not disclosed at booking. The WiFi “package” which is a mandatory fee of $35 a night was also not disclosed. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Pros: The location is great. Couldn't be closer to the BART, so if you're coming or going to SFO this is super convenient. Market St is pretty happening, so that's fun. The bed was comfy. The place across the street has an unbelievably good breakfast burrito- yum!
Cons: It's historic, but rather stodgy. My cell phone didn't have service, and the wifi is kind of pain. WiFi always eventually worked. Market St can get a bit adventurous, so at night you might want to walk in pairs.

Pros: great location just steps to BART entrance
Cons: My room was not clean, it had a previous occupant's dirty laundry and drug paraphernalia under the bed. Uncomfortable mattress. Desk staff were pretty rude to each other and to hotel guests. When I handed in a comment card at the end of my stay, the receptionist put it in a pile of paper on top of the copier and said "I hope they read it." All of this would have been fine for a cheap hotel in the city, but this was not a cheap hotel.

Pros: I liked that it was simple and clean.

Pros: The location was great and the metro was right outside the front door. Larry, the door man was wonderful! As were the parking valets, the maids, and the concierge. The room decorations were appropriate for the hotel's style and feel. The bed and bedding were great. The room was clean. Overall it was a great deal for SOMA and I would stay there again.
Cons: Bathroom shower was very low and hard for my husband to use (he's 6'3), the bathroom door stuck and was hard to get open and closed, TV picture wasn't very clear (but it wasn't a huge deal).

Pros: I loved the heritage features of this hotel. Beautiful wood mouldings, marble and crystal light fixtures make you feel like you've stepped back in time. The hotel rooms are simple, but nicely appointed. This hotel was good value for money. It is a 3 star hotel and I think it was very nice for a 3 star hotel, better than most, but if you are looking for 4 or 5 star hotel features and amenities then this probably isn't the hotel for you.
Cons: Amenities are a bit limited, no room service, no mini fridge or coffee maker, no pool. Pay per view movies weren't working during our stay, but we weren't there to watch movies so it wasn't a big issue. The hotel is in a bit of a rough area, but I still felt safe on the streets. No one bothered me. A short walk or tram ride takes you to Union Square and beyond to the Piers and Fisherman's Wharf, so you are close to better areas and it's very central.
