Hotel Union Square

The location cannot be beat. It is about a block north of a BART station and bus stops, the trolley is right outside the door, and multiple ZipCar locations are right around the corner. It is centrally located, allowing you to take a break in the middle of the day.

The standard rooms are VERY small. We paid the upgrade fee to get the executive king room. Double the space for $30. Worth it.

The staff is friendly and professional. Rooms are tiny but comfy and recently renovated, with a modern reversible AC, a flat-screen TV, an iPod deck, free wifi. There is complimentary coffee in the morning and wine at 5pm every day. The location is along the mythical cable car line, close to the Moscone center and major shopping malls.

If you request a room with twin beds from booking.com, you may end up with one double bed instead. The reception told me that they are not able to receive (or process?) this information from the website.

street facing rooms have too much noise from street car

I liked everything....atmosphere, design, location, decor- just so impressive. My thanks and appreciation to Nathalie at reception who was absolutely delightful and helpful and who always had a lovely smile and a moment to have a chat whenever i walked past...she is an impressive asset to the hotel, a diligent worker who obviously loves her job! Well done, hope she can be rewarded somehow....I'll be back and will definitely recommend this hotel.

Would have loved a fridge in the room, but no matter, still a brilliant hotel.

Very comfortable stay. Friendly, helpful staff. Was exactly the place I was looking for, would definitely stay there again.

Superb location, yet still quiet for sleeping, highly recommend
