Very nice boutique hotel with excellent staff. My only complaint was the Wifi — could barely get any work done even after they switched me to their Admin network. Great otherwise.

Aesthetics - 7/10. Chic lobby. Cute rooms but tiny and feel old, in need of some TLC. Service - 9/10. Staff were all so kind and accommodating. Love the text-centric front desk service. Fairly quick to respond. Location - 9/10. Hard to beat. If it wasn’t for the overall experience, esp for sleep, I would consider coming back bc of the location. Experience - 4/10. It was SO LOUD. Zero insulation from the outside and hallway noises. You can hear trucks, beeping, yelling, etc as clear as day. Didn’t sleep well.

FYI the available parking is the surrounding parking lots. There is one across the street. There is no dedicated hotel parking or valet. Also there is no room service since the restaurant is not a part of the hotel.

We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay! The staff were extremely helpful and our room was beyond perfect. Clean, cozy and spacious. We were able to walk a short distance to shopping, various dining options and transportaion inlcuding the cable cars and a stop on the train from the aiport. If you like to walk and explore like we do, then this is perfect. We walked to Fishermans Wharf, Chinatown, the Financial District, The baseball stadium the list can go on... We stayed 8 nights and we will definitely be staying here again.

Charming Comfort in the Heart of San Francisco

Our recent stay at the Palihotel San Francisco was everything we hoped for in a home away from home. The hotel’s unique charm and stylish decor gave it real character, and its location made exploring the city effortless. It was easy to grab a rideshare, and we were within walking distance of several popular spots for food and drinks. One standout feature was the vintage elevator—one of the oldest in the city—which added a nostalgic touch to our stay. Check-in was seamless, thanks to Rachel, who made us feel instantly welcome. We’ll absolutely be back!

Terrible

We checked in Friday night and realized our AC in the room was not working. We were given a fan for the night and was told an engineer would take a look at the thermostat in the morning. The next day, on our way out for breakfast, we checked with the front desk and were told there are no engineers on weekends. The lady working told us to come back at 12 when a new room would be available. At this point, 3 front desk staff know about the broken AC in our room and when we came back to the hotel to switch rooms, we were told we needed to bring all of our stuff to the lobby and go through the check in process again but we had plans we needed to get ready for and couldn’t waste more time. We felt like we weren’t taken care of properly or being prioritized and the situation could have gone more smoothly if it was handled that Friday night. Or handled while we were gone for 2 hours at breakfast. Not only was the room hot especially after our showers and getting ready, we had to open the door wide open to the hallway to let hot air out, the beds are uncomfortable (not soft, at all) and every single pillow was flat. Overall, I would never come back to this hotel ever again and would never recommend it. Look elsewhere or good luck!

It is a reasonably pleasant hotel. I did not sleep a wink. Despite the double glazing, a construction site started up outside. The soundproofing internally is below par. The bed and sheets were brilliant, however, if you like pillows like enormous marshmallows, and I don’t, you will have a swell time. I don’t think I will come back.

The elevator had issues, but worked. My problem was the plumbing. Our toilet clogged twice. The 2nd time the maintenance person told us not to flush toilet paper! At least that happened the morning we were leaving. The rooms are fine but small.
