Art-Deco whimsy, 1920s-era grandeur and wine hour near Union Square
The Art-Deco era is alive and well at this boutique Hotel Union Square, which was returned to its 1920s grandeur during an exhaustive renovation in 2008. Today, the hotel features signature staircases and opulent moldings, while loft-like guest rooms boast brick walls and mosaic murals. Another benefit: the world's only Dashiell Hammett Suite, named after the author of "The Maltese Falcon." The property is part of the Personality Hotels Collection. It sits mere blocks from the shopping of Union Square.

Excellent location
Stayed here in a group of four after a work conference in Palm Springs. Our room (two double beds) was probably a little too small for all 4 of us, but that's hardly anyone's fault but our own. Fantastic location that's close to lots of public transport options. You could hear the cable car line from our window (not a problem for us, but might be for anyone who dislikes city noise - personally, I LOVED it). I was able to arrange a cab back to the airport late at night with no difficulty at all. I would definitely recommend this hotel!

Good position, but the room is.....
It has a good position, near the marktet street, for we were there to go shopping. However, the room, we ordered executive room, is small and the air is not fresh. This does not matter a lot for we had been shopping the whole night. But it would be horrible if somebody really sleeps there.

PARKING
This hotel was GREAT! The staff was very nice and helpful. If you are parking a car with them, be careful.....they forgot to mention that it is $41 per day! This is a good rate for the area, but it wasnt mentioned that this service was not included in the original cost of the hotel.

Great hotel in the center of union square
This hotel is great. My friend and I stayed there for vacation. Hotel is very nice and clean. the people are helpful and are always willing to help with anything. It's in the best location of union square, with alot of shopping and eating. The cable car starts a block away and it takes you to the wharf. Also it has a stop for tour buses at union square which is two blocks from it. The only thing is the room with one bed is very small ask for two bed room.

Nice location... Average hotel
The location is awesome... Right close to Westfield mall and all the good shopping, etc. however the rooms weren't all that. First room we checked into was super small and had NO AC. I am a girl from Texas... We have To have AC!!!! The front desk was extremely helpful getting us moved to a room that was furnished with a window unit AC. It's a cute place... And for the price is was comfortable for the 4 nights spent there. THe cleaning lady was a doll...SUPER SWEET and very helpful!

Great Trip
Great Hotel. Location could not be better right in the middle of shopping and dining. Easy access to the Cable Cars, BART and Taxi's galore. Spent three days in the city and was very happy with the hotel. The concierge has great knowledge and can get you great deals. Suggest the double decker bus tour great way to see a lot of the city in two hours and you can get on and off. FYI parking lot for the hotel is around the block. Go to the T-junction and make a left it is there on the left.

Wickedly Fun Weekend
Go back again and again
My friends and I were in San Francisco to see "Wicked" at the Orpheum Theatre and used Hotel Union Square as a our "home base." We did enjoy the stay, beds were nicer than okay, low to the ground though. The bathroom however was very small and we did a lot of getting ready in the entire room. Plenty of outlets to plug in the various hair things, and laptop and the in-home iHome was awesome for pump-up music. The hotel is very easy to get in and out of and very close to the greatest shopping locations. For a girls weekend this place was perfect! They even printed our return flight boarding passes for us the night before making the transition from hotel to airport seamless. P.S. parking is expensive there- $30 for 24 hour valet for guests and more for others. So two days is another $60 on the total....three is $90 and so forth, It adds up really quick!

Cheesecake Factory on the 7th floor of the Macy's overlooking Union Square is just blocks away, secluded, romantic and a great place to eat!
