Industrial chic and unique hotel off Union Square
 

Hotel Diva is a unique, ultramodern hotel designed by local architect Olle Lundberg, who specializes in metalwork. Like something from a futuristic or science fiction film, Hotel Diva makes a dramatic style statement, featuring Lundberg's trademark sculptured metal headboards and bold color schemes of slate gray and silver with a striking blue carpet, symbolizing a 1930s ocean liner, running throughout. In contrast to the industrial chic, which won Hotel Diva a Best Hotel Design award from Interiors magazine, the service is warm and attentive.

3 Reasons To Stay:

  • Avant-garde hotel designed by renowned architect
  • Located near all amenities of Union Square
  • Pet- and wallet-friendly hotel
Hotel Diva Rooms
 

The outstanding, modern style of Hotel Diva is present throughout its 115 guest rooms, which range from deluxe king or queen rooms to deluxe two doubles. Not for the faint-hearted, the cool, monochromatic rooms feature the architect's signature steel headboards, metallic touches, and a playful, pop art touch. Children love the little divas suite, which is equipped for a family of four and boasts a riot of primary colors in a fun, almost cartoonish setting. The hotel is not just about the fun factor, though, as it takes the needs of guests seriously, and they are well provided for with iPod docking stations, flat-screen televisions and complimentary wireless Internet. Rooms also include comfortable beds, bathrobes and coffee-making facilities. The hotel also caters for the business traveler, with four designer business lounges available for use, and there is complimentary use of a town car to whisk guests to the nearby Financial District. Eating on site is a pleasure at Colibri, which offers fresh and tasty Mexican cuisine, plus a selection of premium tequilas, and the Hotel Diva includes a Starbucks with its usual good selection of coffees, pastries and muffins.

Not what I expected

The staff was friendly and willing to help with any special needs. The room was much bigger than expected. Almost like a little apartment. The beds turned out to be a pull-down located in the living room. Geary is a busy and noisy street. I was awoken many times by outside noise. The bathroom was especially small and did not like that the vanity was separate with hardly any counter space. The room did not have a fridge or microwave. The chairs in the room were extremly uncomfortable. This hotel is recommended for short stays where location is everything, but not for extended visits.

DIVA's Great Personality

We had a wonderful one night stay at the Diva. We were given a upgrade at no charge as we checked in early. This made our stay all the more pleasant. Each time we stay at the Diva we find that the hotel's staff is more and more pleasant and gives us royal treatment. The rooms are wonderful and comfortable. It has a unique and exciting decor that fits the San Francisco feeling. It's location is great as it is in the middle of the theatre district and just a short walk to Union Square and all the shopping located around. With both Starbucks and the Colibri Mexican Bistro downstairs, it is the prefect location. We recommend the Diva to everyone who wants great service, great location at a great price!

The ACT is across the street. Colibri Mexican Bistro is, along with a Starbucks, downstairs. Union Square is just a short walk as is all the great shopping in the heart of SFO.

A fun quirky place

The Diva Hotel is indeed a personality hotel. The staff are great, friendly and very helpful. The lobby and rooms are sort of art deco funky with a lot of stainless steel and interesting decorations. Rooms were small but nice. The location is terrific: right off of Union Square with all its shopping, very near the bus and trolley routes, and a pleasant walk down to the Embarcadero. It's got a Starbucks attached and restaurants in walking distance.

One night only

My wife and I were only in town for one night. We found the hotel staff to be very helpful in helping us decide the best places to check out during our short stay. The Hotel is in a good location and we found we weere able to walk everywhere we wanted to go.

Sightseeing tip: Long walk from hotel

It is a long walk to the Fisherman?s wharf, but worth it, and if you pick the right route, you can to take in China Town and the North Beach neighborhood along the way.

A modern Beauty

Hotel Diva is located about three blocks away from union square so it was very convenient. The rooms are a little smaller the shower head is a little lower, but other than that the hotel staff was very nice and the Starbucks next door was awesome! My only complaint was being charged Seven dollars for the three dollar bottle of water I drank. Other than that I couldn't have asked for a better hotel!

Great location-service-room.

This unique hotel in the heart of San Francisco, just one block off Union Square, is an event in itself! The hotel design and theme are very theatre which makes attending Jersey Boys at the Curran directly across the street a treat. The rooms are relatively small, yet very functional and comfortable. I will stay her again and again!

war okay aber nicht mehr

Hotel war sauber und die Lage war okay. Jedoch hatten wir ein Zimmer, welches zum Innenhof hinausging und ca. um 4 Uhr morgens wurden die Mülltonnen geleert, was einen riesen Lärm machte. Ausblick aus dem Fenster war auch ziemlich scheusslich.
