Industrial chic and unique hotel off Union Square
 

Hotel Diva is a unique, ultramodern hotel designed by local architect Olle Lundberg, who specializes in metalwork. Like something from a futuristic or science fiction film, Hotel Diva makes a dramatic style statement, featuring Lundberg's trademark sculptured metal headboards and bold color schemes of slate gray and silver with a striking blue carpet, symbolizing a 1930s ocean liner, running throughout. In contrast to the industrial chic, which won Hotel Diva a Best Hotel Design award from Interiors magazine, the service is warm and attentive.

3 Reasons To Stay:

  • Avant-garde hotel designed by renowned architect
  • Located near all amenities of Union Square
  • Pet- and wallet-friendly hotel
Hotel Diva Rooms
 

The outstanding, modern style of Hotel Diva is present throughout its 115 guest rooms, which range from deluxe king or queen rooms to deluxe two doubles. Not for the faint-hearted, the cool, monochromatic rooms feature the architect's signature steel headboards, metallic touches, and a playful, pop art touch. Children love the little divas suite, which is equipped for a family of four and boasts a riot of primary colors in a fun, almost cartoonish setting. The hotel is not just about the fun factor, though, as it takes the needs of guests seriously, and they are well provided for with iPod docking stations, flat-screen televisions and complimentary wireless Internet. Rooms also include comfortable beds, bathrobes and coffee-making facilities. The hotel also caters for the business traveler, with four designer business lounges available for use, and there is complimentary use of a town car to whisk guests to the nearby Financial District. Eating on site is a pleasure at Colibri, which offers fresh and tasty Mexican cuisine, plus a selection of premium tequilas, and the Hotel Diva includes a Starbucks with its usual good selection of coffees, pastries and muffins.

great, stylish hotel

Staff was as friendly as could be; design really exceeds what often passes for chic/boutique. Nice lounges on several floors; tea available all day, sake in the evening. Very close to Union Square and transportation hub. Neighborhood in the opposite direction can get sketchy, so take care.

Great hotel but...

Loved this hotel. Great location, modern decor, Starbucks right there. And the staff tried to be helpful. But I shouldn't have to stand in the rain for 1/2 hour for them to valetmy car. And I seemed to be one of the lucky ones - overheard people trying to pick up their cars complaining they had been waiting for over an hour. Would love to use this hotel for future trips but the parking makes for a potential nightmare.

Great Location

The hotel was clean, workers friendly and a great location. Some would say it was noisy, but it is hard to find a hotel in the downtown area that is not noisy.........to me that is part of the deal! 2 doors down there was a fantastic Japanese Noodle house with a line out the door. Worth the wait! The hotel gladly took care of our bags when we arrived hours before check in so we could start our adventure as well as the day we left. We would stay again!

Fun style, comfortable rooms

My wife and I needed a weekend getaway and wanted to experience downtown SF; after looking at a number of options I decided on Diva because I wanted to not worry about anything and have a great location. It was great! We worried about nothing, the room was cozy and the location perfect.

You get what you pay for

There are only two elevators at this hotel. One wasn't working at all during our entire stay and the other (crowded with guests and workers with large carts) made scary noises and went to the basement and opened before every ride upstairs. It became a running joke among guests. The hotel has king beds,but no king sheets. So, if you are 6'2" like my husband, the fact that the bottom sheet ends inches before the foot of the bed ensures that you won't get a good night's sleep, even though the mattress is good. I called and reported this TWICE to the front desk and housekeeping and was assured it would be fixed each time. Here is the problem. The staff is so nice, but they can't make elevators that are so old you can no longer buy parts for them work and the cant make sheets longer. The location is awesome. The facility is not. I would NOT recommend this hotel.
