Top City Lights Booksellers Hotel Reviews

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was a perfect location for us. We stayed 5 nights and really enjoyed it. Didn’t have any time to use the amenities, but the pool seemed nice. Room was clean and restocked each day for us."

Club Quarters Hotel Embarcadero, San Francisco

8/10 Good

"Gets the job done. Small room but enough to lay your head. Clean. Cleaning staff did good job ensuring clean sheets and towels daily, which was great."

FOUND Hotel Carlton, Nob Hill

8/10 Good

"Neat little boutique hotel but beware there is NO AC! The staff were very helpful in providing us with box fans but the room was very warm. Still, location is great and the room was nice."

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay. Perfect location. Rooms were great, staff was friendly. Loved the little store, Perfect for grabbing a snack or coffee."

Marriott Vacation Club®, San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"Love this hotel. All staff at every level were so nice and facilities were excellent."

Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in an excellent location just a few steps from Union Square, the cable car stop, and the BART train station, not to mention all the clothing stores and food options around it. The room was clean and very comfortable with a refrigerator inside, and I really liked the free cookies, apples, and water in the lobby. However, the service from the lobby staff could be improved, as they misplaced my small suitcase and only found it after checking three times. Management should improve staff training so they follow protocols and do not affect customers. I would stay at the hotel again, but I would be careful with the lobby staff."

InterContinental Mark Hopkins by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Very beautiful property. Staff was great!"

Hotel Nikko San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"Was a quick one night. I arrived at 5pm and left at 8am. The sushi restaurant was good, I didn’t use the pool or gym or anything else. The room was nice and clean."

Grand Hyatt San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel! Right in Union Square. Beds were very hard and pillows kind of sucked. But overall the rooms were nice and very clean. We were on the 29th floor which was a cool view Parking is horrible and because we have a bigger truck they couldn’t valet it and had no idea how to help us and just kind of left us to figure it out, Thankfully we found ONE garage down the street that took bigger vehicles (thanks ChatGPT for finding it)."
