Would highly recommend. Staff is so kind and accommodating, the room has a vintage hotel charm and was comfortable, the heated pool was great for the kiddos, and centrally located so you could get anywhere either by walking or by hopping on the public transit. Thanks for the hospitality!

Not your standard, cookie cutter room, which I really liked. Bathroom a bit smaller, but fine for us and nice to have a room with character. The historic building is beautiful, the location is great, and everything was walkable and/or near major public transit. Staff was also fabulous! I would definitely stay here again.

We chose this hotel for location and price. It's super convenient to get anywhere in SF if you're using public transportation, which is recommended because driving sucks and parking is $$$! The rooms are dated and have a distinct smell, so we bought a scented candle at a farmers market and just left it open (but no open flame). That seemed to make things better! Otherwise the value was good for SF, the staff was friendly, and the hotel was quiet. There's the usual homeless problem, which is endemic to SF, but we never felt unsafe, even when we were out after sunset.

Our favorite hotel in San Francisco.

We discovered the Handlery Union Square several years ago and now always stay there when we are in San Francisco. It is quiet, conveniently located for transportation and in the "middle" of the city.

We enjoyed our stay. It was conveniently located to everything we intended on doing. The rooms were relatively clean. A couple of things to note, if you choose a premiere room they are located on the other side of the property and it’s a bit of a hike. They do tell you an alternate way once you get settled though. The rooms are very warm. Luckily they have fans and the shower head is very low. I’m only 5’5 and I felt they were extremely low. All of these things would not deter us from staying here again.

5 stars!

All everyone told me about staying in SF is how loud any hotel I stay in is going to be. Well I was a bit nervous but this place blew me away, it was a 10 out of 10 on the quiet scale. You couldn’t hear any street noise or noise from other guests for that matter. Check in was a breeze and the staff was very friendly. Room was way larger than I expected too and they actually had water pressure in the shower. I would absolutley stay here again!
