Great weekender

I went up to San Fransisco for the weekend with my sister. We flew up to SFO and took the Bart to Powell st. The hotel was just a few blocks away. The service was great and the hotel is very clean. The beds were very comfortable. The hotel is a great location. Lots of restaurants nearby, bars, clubs and plenty of shopping! Oh yeah and Starbucks is across the street!

Mariott Union Square-great location

The location was great! The staff was very nice and effecient. we were there to cheer family running in the SF Marathon. The sheets were soft but the sweat factor in the bed was way too high-(for both of us) so they may have been polyester. Except for that, the bed was comfortable.

Great central location

Was in town for international medical conference with my wife. Proximity to great art galleries and fine shopping at Union Square. Also, take the Powell Street cable car directly to Fisherman's Wharff

Great Location

I was visting my daughter during school break. She is in graudate school at the Academy of Art Univ. The trip was great, lots to see and do. The Hotel is located near the trolly cars and Union Square. We visted lots of shops, took a bus tour of the city, a musuem and the crookiest street. We also had tea for 2 at Crowns and Crumpets The weather was breezy and it rain one day. My only complaint was the Marriott charged me $250 for a security deposit on my hotel room. They returned it at the end of my stay, but a very unexpected fee. They never mentioned this fee. This should be told to you before you walk in. Other than that the trip and the hotel was great.
