Stayed there end June 2008. This hotel did not live up to my expectations based on all the positive reviews I read on the internet. We chose an older hotel for the historic value and ambiance knowing it would probably not have up to date technology or ammenities but this was really disappointing. The 6th floor room (hotel has 7... more

Great location.....great room BUT most important wonderful staff.... especially front desk, concierge (or as I like to call them ---Connie C. Urges---my lame humor)......the best of the best was Hermie and Ed..... they made our every turn an expected one with excellent directions along with a lot, lot, lot of patience....thanks to you both for being so wonderful to 3... more

We had 4 nights at the Handlery Union Square towards the end of May. The hotel was recommended by our travle agent as being a family hotel. I had wanted to book one street back from Union Square but she talked me into this one. The hotel itself was clean enough but very cramped from the reception area to the... more

We (my husband and I and our 5 year old and 1 year old) stayed at the Handlery for 7 nights at the end of April. It was my second visit to SFO but the first for everyone else. With 2 small children we wanted to stay somewhere central with easy access to transport. We were not disappointed from that... more

Enjoyed staying at this hotel. Excellent location for walking, cable cars, etc. Rooms clean and hotel quaint. I liked the layout of the hotel and arrangements of the hallways and rooms. Resturant and staff excellent. Workout room in process of being remodeled but was able to use adjacent hotel's amenities(yes legally) more

This hotel is a classy older property taken very good care of and very clean. I stayed one night and didn't use all the amenities but was very pleased with the room and the service. I left my watch in the room and called the next day after I got home. They had found my watch, marked and stored it... more

The lobby was a little shabby - worn carpet and furniture but our room was obviously recently renovated with modern bathroom (no mouldy tiling), comfortable bed, clean carpet and reasonably spacious accommodation. I think they are gradually updating the hotel. I had read in some of the reviews that the rooms could be very noisy, but without any request on... more

I needed a centrally located hotel to stay over for one night in San Francisco. My usual was booked so I decided to try the Handlery. Some of the reviewers on the site were mixed about it but I decided to try it given it was a good price for such a great location. I was very happy. Friendly, helpful... more

We stayed at The Handlery for 6nights for our Honeymoon. The staff were great and so accommodating. We weren't happy with our first room but within 5 minutes they had moved us to a lovely room and had all our luggage moved. The concierge was so helpful and approachable. Although the hotel was under going some construction, there was absolutely... more
