Hilton San Francisco Union Square

Hilton San Francisco Union Square

10/10 Excellent
"Parking is difficult in the city, but the hotel provided exceptional parking staff service. We opted to Valet the car for an extra $10 and it was a breeze getting in and out of the property 24/7. The prices were very competitive with the surrounding area and the parking area always have securities around. Walking around the area can be sketchy but definitely doable if you have brave hearts."
