The Hotel Rex was inspired by the San Francisco art and literary salons of the 1920's and 30's. Vibrant and alive, the clubby lobby surrounds guests with distinctive period furnishings, walls of antiquarian books, and an exceptional collection of exotic objects and original portraits and murals. Literary events regularly unfold in the lobby bar, and the hotel's new Café Andree is an enchanting blend of a Northern California café and authentic French bistro. Guestrooms are decorated in a palate of Provencal colors and feature the work of local artisans as well as an impressive menu of modern amenities. The Hotel Rex has recently reopened after completing its spectacular million-dollar renovation.
The Hotel Rex now accepts pets for a one time cleaning fee of $100 per stay.

Quaint and Cozy
Landbound Sailors Aug 25, 2009
Our trip was a surprise anniversary gift for my wife, who had always wanted to see San Francisco. I picked Hotel Rex based ... on the Orbitz description and recommendations. We were not disappointed. It's a cozy little place, and we could have spent the entire time in the comfortable salon were it not for the lure of the city outside. The location was fantastic, just off Union Square and close to the cable car line. Great restaurants and shopping are nearby. What we enjoyed most was the Golden Gate Greeter program, which provided a local volunteer (for free) who introduced us to the city. Walking the downtown and neighborhoods with our Greeter was the highlight of our trip. He was energetic and knowledgeable, showing us details we never would have noticed, and wonderful bits of history that enhanced our visit. If you've never been to San Francisco, this service is a must.

Buy a municipal transit multi-day passport, covering all modes of public transportation. It will easily pay for itself in a single day. Cable cars and streetcars cover the most-visited locations, and busses get the rest of them. Money well spent.

The Rex Hotel is located on Sutter street, just walk down one block and you'll be on Powell, right in front of the cable cars! Union Square is just infront of you and there's a lot do there. I walked around and really it has the perfect location.

Travelling Jay Jul 8, 2009
The staff was very accommodating with granting early check-in, late check-out and letting us into our stored bags twice once ... we checked out. They even suggested a great sushi bar 2 blocks away. The rooms were a bit on the small side, but clean and housekeeping was accommodating when we left the room late on both days. However, I wanted to workout and they only offered $15/day "discounted" passes to a gym nearby. That was pricey.

Bedroom was small and and seemingly underfloor heating in bathroom made it far too hot -- in June. Air conditioning, which ... may have compensated, was too nosy to use. But the prodigal waste of energy annoyed me -- an inconvenient truth.

Cost conscious traveller May 29, 2009
My wife and I spent three restful days at the Hotel Rex during our recent weekend in San Francisco. The hotel was in a great ... location, just a short (~10 minute) walk from the Powell St. BART station. It had easy access to other public transportation (MUNI) and the attached restaurant was very accommodating for my wife's gluten allergy. All of this for a very reasonable price downtown.

The hotel Rex is a great alternative to big chain hotels. It was warm and comfortable in the lobby, especially during the ... wine reception! Great location. Building is a bit old, but it only adds to the overall character of the hotel. We had a wonderful time and would definitely return.

Good Location
Julie Sep 9, 2007
The hotel staff was very good and accomodating. We were given a room at the front of the hotel that seemed about the size of ... a large bathroom. It was small and near the elevator so we expressed our dissatisfaction and they promptly move us further down. The new room was nice and a typical size for a boutique hotel. The front desk explained that many guests prefer the front of the hotel, so we may have been an exception. The complimentary wine and the happy hour special is something to take advantage of. Very relaxing after a day of sight seeing. The location was the best part. Very near everything, but the room was so quiet and the curtains blacked out so much we slept in an extra two hours --completely unheard of in my family.
