“Great hotel to explore San Francisco”

Nov 11, 2025J1272VEsusiem

Great hotel with clean, comfortable and totally quiet rooms. We got a discounted upgrade at the last minute and opened curtains to a view of Alcatraz which was awesome. Super friendly and helpful front desk staff. Happy hour wine and beer was a nice treat. It’s ideally located just 10mins walk from Pier 39 and just 5mins walk from the start of the Powell-Hyde cable car line. We didn’t try the restaurant (but would recommend eightam for an exceptional breakfast, which is just 4mins round the corner)

“Beautiful boutique hotel”

Nov 11, 2025Kim S

This hotel was great! Front desk was nice and helpful. Its location is great with everything in walking distance. Dean, who works in Valet was especially helpful with our transportation. He is friendly and always has a smile on his face! I would highly recommend staying at this beautiful boutique hotel!

“Worst Hotel Experience Ever in San Francisco”

Oct 29, 2025John W

I used to love Kimpton Hotels - this place makes me question who in HR hired the staff here. First of all, this is NOT A 4-STAR HOTEL. No amenities, super basic rooms, not even a coffee aker or water in your room. Upon check in, when I complained about a $32 a night "resort fee" with absolutely no tangible benefits, the rude desk clerk threatened to cancel my reservation. He then brought out the manager who was equally rude and gave me some B-S about how $32 a night was the price we paid for their supposedly free cocktail hour. The A/C in my room was not functioning, and when I called to complain there was no apology and no offer of compensation for the wasted time repacking up all my stuff and moving my room. AVOID this hotel - you can do better!
