This is a solid 3-star hotel, not a 4-star hotel. At most, it would be a 3.5. Best parts of this hotel were the location, the friendly staff, and the activities (pool, ping pong, etc.).

The character of the hotel and the staff
I like everything, front desk guy, room, bed, pillows, stuff¿ but the rooftop bar is a must!
The Starlite Lounge was wonderful. Also, we had what I think was a standard king room which was decorated very nicely and spacious. Our room was on a corner with the cable car going by but the noise level was not a big deal.

Where to stay in San Francisco
Learn about the top neighbourhoods of San Francisco
From Broadway performances to shopping to fine dining, this neighborhood serves up a quintessential San Francisco experience. It includes the heart of the city's theater district; before the show, choose among restaurants ranging from big-name fine dining to hole-in-the-wall local favorites.

Head up Grant Avenue to see the Dragon Gate entrance to Chinatown.
The main artery leading to the Golden Gate Bridge, Lombard Street also affords easy access to the Presidio of San Francisco, formerly a military base and now a tranquil park that's a National Historic Landmark. Affordable Lombard and its tonier Marina neighbor Chestnut Street, one block north, are chock-full of restaurants and bars appealing to all appetites and budgets. Chestnut Street's chic boutiques set shoppers' hearts aflutter.

Top Tips
- Book San Francisco hotels 2–4 months in advance if your travel coincides with major city events such as Outside Lands in late August or large Moscone Center tech conferences. Room rates can rise 50-120% during these periods. Set price alerts and compare rates across neighborhoods to find the best options for your dates.
- Expect an additional 15–17% local tax and assessment on the nightly rate, plus daily facility or destination fees of $15-$45 added at checkout. Review your booking confirmation for a full invoice breakdown and factor these fees into your budget.
- Downtown hotel parking typically costs $60-$80 or more per night. Compare valet rates to public garage pricing using apps like SpotHero, or consider using rideshares or public transit where available to avoid high parking fees.
- BART provides direct transit from SFO Airport to downtown San Francisco for $8-$12 and takes 30–35 minutes. Rideshares range from $40-$70 depending on traffic and travel time, typically 20-45 minutes. Compare both options for price and time based on your arrival.
- Neighborhood choice affects safety, access, and cost. The Tenderloin has the lowest nightly rates but reports higher police calls, while SoMa and the Financial District are closer to convention venues but cost more in the evening. Use the SFPD calls-for-service map to check specific street risks before booking.
- Wi-Fi quality varies widely: budget hotels often provide speeds under 20 Mbps, while mid-range and upscale properties may offer 50–300 Mbps. If remote work is essential, confirm the Wi-Fi speed directly with your hotel before booking.
- Historic and boutique hotels, especially in Nob Hill or Alamo Square, may lack elevators or step-free entrance. To ensure accessibility, request an accessible room or confirm elevator access at least 7-14 days before arrival, including whether features like roll-in showers are available if needed.
- Purchase a Clipper card or use MuniMobile for public transit to avoid counterfeit ticket risk and access daily or weekly fare passes valid across Muni and BART within transfer rules. Avoid buying paper passes from resellers.
- San Francisco tap water is safe to drink. Carry a refillable bottle to reduce plastic waste, and anticipate that some hotels may limit towel and linen changes during drought alerts for water conservation.
- Budget for tipping: bellhops $1–$3 per bag, housekeeping $3–$5 per day, and valet $3–$5 upon vehicle pick-up. These amounts reflect typical US service norms in San Francisco hotels.
- When paying with a foreign card, opt to be charged in USD and decline dynamic currency conversion to avoid added markups. Chip and contactless payments are widely accepted at hotel front desks.
