Top Canal Hotel Reviews

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location on a clean/safe feeling street (compared to some others nearby). Close to transport links too. Hotel is clean and well-maintained. Maid service are v diligent and friendly, as are all the front of house staff"

Hyatt Regency San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and spacious, breakfast and the market was amazing along with the staff that helped out in these areas. My only suggestion would be for either Hotels.com or the hotel to add in the information section that the hotel holds an additional $100 per night in case of any incidentals."

Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

8/10 Good

"The Cafe is closed since Covif, although they offer coffee & tea. The front desk directed my to their parking garage which was incotrect, parking is half a block away and uphill to get to it, and it's $65.00 a day to park. When I was at the front desk this morning a mouse ran all the way across the lobby floor to where the cafe used to be."
