The hotel was farther from attractions at Union Square but it's close to lots of restaurants and waling distance from the cable cars. We walked some of the way but if we had to do it over, we would ahve booked something a little closer. The service at the hotel was very good, they catered to everything we needed. There... more

My partner and I stayed here for 7 nights towards the end of April and enjoyed every minute of it. The hotel is very well located and accessible to all the more popular areas of San Francisco, such as Union square, Nob Hill and Pier 39 -- All within 5-10 minutes walk or tram ride away. The hotel itself is... more

We stayed at the Hotel Carlton last summer with friends from the Czech Republic. The guys at the front desk were terrfic. Always helpful with dinner suggestions. They would quickly make a reservation for you and print you out directions. The complimentary wine reception was great. Will always stay here when we return to SF. more

The cable cars... more

What a pleasant stay. We have been to San Francisco several times before and expected very cramped accomodations. We were pleasantly surprised. We booked 2 rooms for 2 nights and had the staff open the door between as our daughters were next door. Nicely decorated, excellent staff, and very comfortable atmosphere. Matresses could have been better but they were bearable.... more

This is a great hotel. We stayed there for 5 nights as part of our honeymoon. They knew ahead of time that it was our honeymoon and they sent up a bottle of wine and a card to the room. Such a nice and appreciated touch. After checking in, they rang up to the room to make sure everything was... more
