FAQs about hotels in San Francisco









An Icon of Liberalism

Home to one of America’s icons – the Golden Gate Bridge – San Francisco is a liberal city where life is very much for the living.

Surrounded on 3 sides by water, it is spread over steep hills that make for great photo opportunities. None better than the zig-zag Lombard Street seen in many a film. Other movie stars are the streetcars plying the hill climbs – a little touristy, but still worth trying.

In the middle of the bay is Alcatraz island, famed for the notorious criminals once imprisoned there. Even if you don’t fancy going inside, the views towards the bridge and city are unparalleled.

Nowhere in San Francisco is life more laidback than on the Pacific beaches. Hire a bike and head out there via the huge Golden Gate Park, before returning to sample some fresh seafood at Fisherman’s Wharf. The clam chowder served in (yes, actually in!) bread is a delight. Chinatown also has a great selection of good value restaurants.

As you fly into San Francisco Airport, look out for the exclusive homes lining the Bay Area. Whether you want to stay in apartments along those lines, luxury San Francisco hotels or cheap hostels, Booking.com has something to suit. Be careful though – you might just leave your heart here.

    Actually a great city for tourism. But lately too many homeless in the street / people who using drugs or smoke marijuana in some location really make a not so comfortable experience.. The government should do something about it.

    I love San Francisco for the convenience of walking around and having plenty to do all day. They have plenty of beautiful parks and locations to enjoy the views and sights of San Francisco. There are so many museums and attractions, and so much to learn about the area and it’s cultures and environment. This visit San Francisco looked and felt so much cleaner than a year ago that I visited. My family walked to many places feeling safe.

    Beautiful multi cultural city, you have the harbour, the bridge, alcatraz, fishermans wharf, union square for shopping and eating. We did the movie tour of the city for the 2nd time =,wonderful tour with each stop/ city sector in San Fran connected to movie scenes locations that you can relate to. Makes the experience special. Would def recommend. We also did the ferry to Sausilito, lovely Town on the water with souvenir shopping + restaurants and cafes and great view back to the city. We caught the bus back across the Golden Gate bridge .. recommend that you get $13USD day pass that covers cable cars and buses for the day. The ferry would be additional cost $14 so to save money you could get bus there and back.

    It was fun taking my partner who had just moved to CA to see San Francisco. We went to a concert but were able to walk around for a few hours before on Pier 39. She loved seeing the otters and sea lions. It was a great day. Disappointed in some of the shops closing or changing, but overall, you can't go wrong with a visit to San Francisco. We also enjoyed going to China Town. We will be back!

    There's so much history and beautiful scenery and architecture. In a week we touched on the high point places to see and visit, but it's just scratching the surface. Incredible dining, easy to get around for an urban city. Down side, some places were a bit dirty, and it is expensive.

    The location of the be Handlery Union Square Hotel is fantastic. This is the first time I have visited San Francisco before and the prime location made getting around the city so much easier. Upon arrival in the morning, our room was ready and they happily accommodated us by letting us check in well before check in time. The staff were helpful and friendly, we were lucky enough to get a room upgrade and a goodie bag to make our stay even more special as we were celebrating our anniversary. Overall a great trip and I would stay here again.

    Spotless hotel in a great location. Neighbourhood is very safe and has plenty of bars & restaurants to enjoy. We saw some bad reviews for the car park around the corner so decided to park at a secure car park on union street roughly 10 mins walk away, it was $30 a for 24hrs and very secure. The hotel’s loading bay at the entrance makes unpacking and repacking the car with luggage super easy. Also the rooftop has fantastic views of the city. Overall by far the best option we had found in San Francisco, especially for the price.

    I really liked the complementary coffee and lounge area. As for the room, it was indeed very small. I didn’t mind that much as I was staying outside the hotel for the whole day but the space would be too small if you’d like to spend more time there. Also the location was not the best - on one hand in the downtown, close to train station and many attractions, but on the other just in the middle of the biggest homeless camps in San Francisco. You need to move through them to get to entrance, almost literally:(

    We stayed for 3 nights and the bed was probably the most comfortable, softest bed I have ever slept in - amazing! Our room was at the front of the hotel so I feared street noise, but actually it was so quiet considering the location in a city. It was nice waking up to hear the bell of the trolley cars going by the end of the road. The location is perfect for walking around the Union Square area and in close proximity are many options for food and drink. The hotel also smelled fresh and clean.

The hotel is in the perfect location - close to everything and just a minute from the cable car station and 5 minutes walking to the Union Square. The stuff was also very friendly and welcoming. A nice touch of fresh sweet pastry every morning and unlimited selection of tea and coffee. Definitely recommend this place while visiting San Francisco!

    The location a block from Union Square was ideal. The Curan theatre is across that street and Grace Cathedral is up the hill. The Warrick provides a good value for the area, where many rooms are in the $500 range. This may seem superfluous, but the in-room HVAC unit was quiet enough to sleep. So often those units are so loud, that one has to choose to be comfortable or sleep. Maybe the best part is the Tapas restaurant on the main floor. Bota was fantastic.
