San Francisco hotels in Chinatown

Pros: the staffs are very nice and friendly , the room is very comfortable , the location of the hotel is unique and convenience for both leisure and work purpose

Pros: Check in and extras

Cons: I had a disagreement with my girlfriend in the bar. Their management accused her - a classy 50-something mother and business women - of soliciting - of being a prostitute - and asked her to leave. Because we caused a disturbance? Fine. But because she’s soliciting?!?! Later I emailed their customer support about the episode. A live person emailed me back and said they’d get back to me in a few days. But, they never did.

Cons: I was struggling with the coffee machine, it is always defective, I reported this twice but still not fixed permanently.

Pros: The rooms were lovely and dinner was fabulous.

Cons: Breakfast was mediocre and the staff (mainly the concierge) was nit very helpful. Also parking is $75. That’s crazy.

Pros: Location, room comfort and design and services.

Pros: Literally nothing

Cons: Rude, arrogant, offending personnel. Useless management not able to take control over the staff and not really caring.

Pros: Hotel charge my card 630$, but the rate was around 400... i find out by accidenty!!! Very disappointed!!!!

Pros: Staff were amazing. Hotel was very luxurious, yet we still all felt at home.

Cons: Suppose it would have to be the price. Very expensive and on top of room rates the car parking was circa $80 pd.

Pros: Location was central, staff was very friendly.

Cons: Pricing was outrageous. $78 for a simple breakfast. Food was good but not anything extraordinary.

Pros: Amazing turn down service

Cons: In a large double room, the sitting area had one very uncomfortable cheap chair. Fortunately, my wife did not mind sitting on the floor

Pros: The front desk staff were great! Very helpful, funny, and polite. The breakfast was ok, quite limited selection, cereal, breads, oatmeal. Could have had more fruit and yogurt but still good to eat something there instead of paying $20+ per person at a restaurant.

Cons: Breakfast

Pros: location is good hotel is simple

Cons: hotel is simple

Pros: The hotel itself is large and well kept. The lobby is lovely and very large with a side lobby near the breakfast area that would be great for a private gathering.

Cons: The staff seemed uninterested in our comfort. The first evening I asked if I could have wine glasses sent to our room and they just told me to drink out of the plastic. They looked at me like I had asked for an antelope to be delivered! They told me they didn't have wine glasses. . . odd. The breakfast was spare and dry. There was only milk - not half and half for the coffee. Not a big deal unless you take into account how simple it would be to provide. The only eggs were hard boiled and everything was very limited. By 8:30 there was no fruit. There were two waffle makers with whipped cream and chocolate chips. The parking garage takes a bit of skill. It's in the basement and you will be charged an extra $22 per day to park. There was a weird noise in our room that woke us up several times. It was in our daughters' room too. We couldn't figure it out. Almost like flapping wings. The neighborhood has its' share of homeless and drug addicted asking for money or, in one case, the asker skipped right to asking for drugs! That part is a little scary and the streets double at toilets for a lot of those unfortunate people so watch your step. The sad thing about San Francisco is that you will be astounded by the change in the city if you've been there before the housing issue. So many homeless and needy people. It used to be such a clean and fun town. Don't plan on walking around too many unknown areas. Tourist spots are okay but not all neighborhoods or downtown. We went to a downtown bakery that's open 24/7 and it was great but there were so many vagrants and tents around us that we wanted to depart the area fast!

Pros: The location is within 15-20 minutes of many attractions and is full of local flavor. The size of the room is just right since most of the time you are out and about. I think it’s a hidden gem and would most definitely stay here again.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: It was close to public transportation - easy to get to. We felt safe in the neighborhood. And of course, plenty of great places to eat because of its location!

Cons: Nothing really.

Cons: Bed so so... Breakfast was not good

Pros: Location

Cons: Clean, small rooms, friendly staff, location 10+. No coffee machine or mini-bar in the room. The breakfast is ridiculous. Cold, lack of choices, no fruits or cheese, disgusting coffee, really we cannot call this a breakfast. They only have disposable plates and cutlery and cups. The amount of garbage they generate is unbelievable. In 2019, it is not acceptable. We paid $250 USD per night X 4 nights, overpriced in my opinion. Did not feel very comfortable in the neighborhood after sunset. Lots of homeless in the area. This could be a ‘’cool’’ hotel but it is not.

Pros: The location was the good part about this hotel, it was in Chinatown but very close to Columbus Av so was very easy to walk to Fisherman’s wharf. Breakfast was fair.

Cons: After I stayed in this hotel I started receiving calls in Chinese and that’s the only Chinese place I gave my phone number, so that’s really bad. It was a very simple hotel and you could hear the noises from the street.

Pros: location is perfect for my requirements.

Cons: Breakfast assortment very poor

Pros: Room was spacious and good bathroom

Cons: The breakfast was all paper and plastic

Pros: Neat and clean basic hotel room in a good central location

Cons: Outdoor noise at night

Cons: There was a lot of noise outside, but that's not the hotels fault. It's just in a big city.

Pros: Vintage ambienc! The hotel is a piece of history! (That may explain the lack of airco - yet the other missing services are difficult to justify) Excellent location Staff friendliness, particularly during night shift.

Cons: Well, it cannot be considered as a 4 star hotel, not at least with European standards, in particular, regarding facilities: - no airco in the room - no safe in the room - no refrigerator in the room - no hair dryer in the room - no wardrobe to hang dresses and clothes - no iron in the room In addition - bottles of water were only provided 1st day. - there was no hot water the 3 stay days (we got approx 15% price reduction though, and we could shower in a sports facility nearby) - the elevator did not work (not a big thing) - we got a free drink at the hotel's restaurant, but we could not use it as it had dress code and we did not come prepared with adequate clothing. (This is understandable)

Pros: The staff was very helpful The area was quiet and clean, not far from many places.

Cons: The window system wasn’t very easy but we managed

Pros: Wonderful building, great ambiance. Breakfast was nice. Views from the 4th floor terrace were beautiful. Within walking distance of lots of attractions.

Cons: Lots of noise in the early morning.

Pros: Convince

Cons: Elevator wasn’t working. But the staff aloud use of staff elevator

Pros: The location is wonderful, walking distance to chinatown, Union Square and a lot of great restaurants.

Cons: While we knew the hotel didn’t have A/C, the room really had no air movement whatsoever. So even when the outside temperature fell to 65F, the room was still 80F, even with open windows and fan going. The breakfast was also somewhat disappointing - a few pastries, yogurt, cereal and hard boiled eggs - that about sums it up. Our room also had no hair dryer - we went to ask for it in the evening and were told they would get it for us shortly. 16 hours later, when checking out, the hair dryer still wasn’t delivered. These are small things but they certainly make a difference. Next time when in town, we’ll be using a different hotel in the neighborhood.

Pros: the location was close to where I was working and also very close to entertainment and restaurants.

Cons: The first night I was put in a room, #6, which is nearly un-inhabitable. Very Very Hot!! And noisy.

Pros: We arrived at 4PM and the rooms were NOT ready. No linens were delivered. It was noisy also.

Cons: We arrived at 4PM and the rooms were NOT ready. No linens were delivered. It was noisy also.

Pros: Quiet.

Pros: Room comfortable, little noisy but it is a big city! Good views from 4 th floor and some interesting history

Pros: Best location. Very charming! There's a very nice restuarant and bar on site. Free breakfast. Comfortable quiet room.

Cons: Parking was difficult. Housekeeping didn't come until after 3 PM

Pros: the location

Cons: This hotel is pretending to be an upscale fancy spot but the actual rooms themselves are terrible. the bed was extremely uncomfortable, there was no A/C but instead a cheap window fan that didn't fit the window properly so there was a huge gap on each side for anything or anyone to come right into the room.

Pros: Very nice room.

Cons: No air conditioning! The room was hot! The breakfast was simple and the hard boiled eggs were often frozen. The breakfast could be a whole lot better!

Pros: Great location. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Light breakfast was enough to get the day started. Right at the gates to Chinatown and close to Union Square. The Irish Bank was a good Irish Pub and the Brasserie was a nice restaurant only steps away. Very good Chinese food nearby to suit your taste. The Hop On Hop Off bus is right at the corner. Easy to walk to the Museum of Modern Art.

Cons: Some rooms may be a little small for some and room art decoration may not be to everyone's taste.

Pros: Location was supurb and secure

Cons: No air con , too much city noise with windows open at night ( fans in rooms would be a good idea )

Pros: The staff were down to earth and very helpful. The room was very clean and cute. I loved the art in my room. I was traveling for work, and having the refrigerator in the room helped tremendously. The area was convenient, accessible, lively, and safe. The hotel rests just across the street from the beginning of chinatown, which is amazing to meander through. I highly recommend.

Cons: I would have rated this hotel with a perfect score had it not been the temperature of the rooms. I stayed for a week over labor day, and the rooms were so hot. The windows do not open but merely a crack. There are no fans, so ventilation is an issue. However, that being said, it was a wonderful room. I know they are in the process of updating some of their systems. My suggestion would be look into ventilation systems, opening the windows, or at the very least, providing fans.

Pros: Nice location, clean rooms.

Cons: No airconditioning whatsoever. Got really warm

Pros: Staff was very accommodating and the room was very clean.

Cons: There was no A/C in the room but they did provide a fan upon request. Also it was a night club each night and I was on the second floor. It did not bother me too bad because I am hearing impaired.

Cons: Very loud guests, no fan in the room, smelly room and uncomfortable bed.

Pros: This place is absolutely great value for money. Staff was great and always helpful. The rooms were clean and funny with all the difefrent themes. I truly recommend.

Cons: The breakfast is a bit too basic, but most places don't offer breakfast at all.

Pros: The location was great. Our room was spacious and clean. The toiletries provided were of a high quality. The staff, especially the lady working in the morning, were all very friendly and helpful. The breakfast provided enough options to make a good start to the day.

Pros: The room was comfortable and clean.

Cons: There was remodeling/painting going on in the very small lobby. They were short staffed, and therefore person at desk was not very responsive or friendly. Breakfast in the morning was inadequate as well. I would say their overall problem is poor management.

Pros: Location

Cons: Hotel des Arts screams San Francisco. It's cool & the art is a nice touch. They offer a daily breakfast & coffee. The quarters are tight & rooms don't have air conditioning, which isn't usually an issue in SF but during my visit it was unusually warm. All in all it was an enjoyable visit to the city. They are centrally located near lots of great food, bars, China Town.

Pros: Love that the hotel is not pretentious but provides you with all the essentials for your stay. The rooms are incredibly clean and the sink in the room is a great addition. We were apprehensive about the shared bathroom situation, however it is kept SO clean it is impressive and in 10 days we stayed at the hotel we didn’t come across 1 other user. LOVE that in a small space they managed to fit: a comfy bed, sink with overhead mirror/shelving, hairdryer, towels, wardrobe, small table and chair, mini fridge and tv! Fridge is SOOO helpful for anyone travelling with kids or simply if you want to chill a bottle of wine! Location is FANTASTIC as is only minutes to Union Square (where most tour buses depart from), Ferry Building and Chinatown. Lots to see on your doorstep. Touching on what other reviewers said about noise - we didn’t hear any! Must depend on what side of the building you’re on.

Cons: Breakfast. Not something to look forward to unfortunately. Nothing feels particularly fresh and choice is extremely limited - could definitely do with improving! However SF is known for fantastic breakfast/brunch places - definitely worth exploring those many options!!!

Pros: Good location, safe area, lots of restaurants and staff always avaliable.

Cons: We stayed in a room facing the main street and during the night the noise was a little bit inconvenient. Maybe they should try to improve the acoustic insulation of the windows.

Pros: The location is amazing minutes away from some of the best sights in San Fran

Cons: The rooms are small but that's why the prices are so low

Cons: Room size. Bathrooms. Noise

Pros: Staff was friendly and helpfull, location is good.

Pros: Location

Cons: Staff in the afternoon was rude, the ones in the morning were super nice

Pros: Location and price

Cons: Small room

Pros: Everything was cleaner than I expected, bed, floor, shower, etc.

Cons: The freshness of the room

Pros: We got an early check-in at 10am, which was great to store our luggage! The bath and toilet were clean, the bed was comfortable. It is a budget hotel, which is amazingly locating in the heart of China town. Thus, it's pretty safe and there is food everywhere.

Cons: It was quite smelly in the room, also it could have been great if slippers would have been offered.

Pros: Despite the thin walls I slept well. It served it's purpose and the front desk can hold your bags for you. Something about the budgetness and creepiness was interesting, you can pretend you're in The Shining

Cons: Youths spat on the floor in the lobby as we entered. Sticky traps under the bed with big roaches in them. Broken blinds in some toilets meant people could look in

Pros: It was a last minute reservation and was not expensive! I enjoyed the situation of the Hotel North Beach. It was clean, espacially in the shared bathroom.

Cons: Depsite the well cleaning, there is a smell in the corridor and the room, maybe the old carpet. So I had to let my window openned.

Pros: Apparently safe district. Reasonnable quality/price ratio. Bus stop in front of the hotel (line 8 - from Market Street). Happy donut next door for the breakfast.

Cons: Kearny Street is a one way street. No bus to reach Market Street - possible to walk nevertheless

Cons: It smells so bad the carpet floors and the bed is horrific! I had to change accommodation
