Luxury meets history, vintage meets modern at Theater District hotel
The Hotel Whitcomb has a place in San Francisco history like no other: Following the 1906 earthquake, the building actually served as City Hall. The majestic Theater District property still looks a lot like it did back then, with crystal chandeliers, Tiffany glass and Italian marble columns and floors. Made-to-look-old furniture highlights rooms upstairs, though modern conveniences abound as well. The on-site Market Street Grill serves up basic American fare.

Very convenient
Located at Market st & 8th st, neighbor to City Hall. This hotel is perfect in location and very convenient to go to either upper or lower Market st. A little bit expensive for students.

Great location for my destinations
I wanted to go to the Asian Art Museum, the DeYoung (taking the #5 Muni bus) and go to the Orpheum. For these goals, the location was perfect. Also, the restaurant always provides an excellent meal. I have stayed here before and plan to stay here again.

Great Hotel - bad location
There is nothing wrong with the hotel, everything was great! The only thing is that the location is not the greatest. It's 3, 4 blocks off from a "nice" neighborhood...lots of bums and crazies outside on the street and no decent diner or restaurant nearby. But if you jump on the tram or the bus, things change quickly.

Good hotel, but no so good location.
As far as hotel and comfort go, everything was great. However, neighborhood was not so good. A lot of homeless people walking around were kind of uncomfortable. If you want to save some money and still close to downtown, I think it's an OK hotel.

Okay for economy travel
The ambience of the hotel was nice. The rooms left something to be desired. The hotel staff was extremely friendly. The hotel was within walking distance to union square. However the street the hotel was on itself was a bit sketchy.

Lovely old hotel
The staff is first rate, the location is convenient, the rooms clean. The lobby is almost surreal in its opulence. It's in the downtown area, which is not the most pleasant neighborhood, but that's city life. Overall, a great experience!
