- David KinnbergNovember 22, 2017Nice, beautiful hotel. The newly renovated lobby is beautiful and the rooms have nice artwork on the walls. View from our room on the 14th floor was terrific. The rooms have 6 USB-ports for charging!
- Richard MSeptember 27, 2012The most peaceful and calming hotel lobby ever! The fragrance; the ambient sound and light; and the furnishings all work together to invoke a pleasant and peaceful feeling every time you enter.
- GabrielleMarch 17, 2018They've recently redone their bar area which is an awesome space! Really relaxing and a nice spot in Japantown. Their happy hour from 5-6 pm has $7 cocktails.
- Priscilla LeongMay 3, 2015Really good services, clean, convenient to visit around and the district has amazing places to eat and shop.
- Wilson Favre-DelerueJune 6, 2018Very cool interior design but cruelly lacking in (basic for some?) hotel services such as room service, concierge, etc. The rooms are very comfortable though the WC and shower design aren’t.
- Zach HamedJanuary 30, 2019Trendy, beautifully designed, hidden work spot with good WI-FI and food/drink.
- Newly remodeled lobby and bar makes this hotel a slightly better choice than Kimpton's Buchanan if you aren't worried about loyalty programs.
- Nathalie RFebruary 20, 2011If you are a fan of anime, the 1 weekend convention animation on display happens here every year in february. Lots of great local anime as well as great mainstream anime to see. :)
- Slava B.January 16, 2016Ask on reception "Extra spicy tuna roll". Be ready for unbelievable deep experience.
- jon accarrinoMay 10, 2012Some of the best music, shopping and restaurants in SFO are only a few blocks away. Walk over to Fillmore and go up the hill. SPQR restaurant was #delicious.
- Richard MSeptember 27, 2012A very nice breakfast can be enjoyed at Sweet Maple; a restaurant about 4 blocks away. All organic and cage free ingredients and meats.
- Kate FurmanMay 12, 2015Cool boutique hotel with a public garage connected under ground. Cheapest overnight parking I could find in downtown San Francisco.
- Andrew SApril 30Main area is super nice and huge. Rooms are ok but could be updated. Clean and hip but def a 3star. Good bang for the buck in a good location.
- Great hotel that’s decently priced for SF. They really take care of you!!
- RexAugust 6, 2022Large rooms that feel a bit underwhelming. Hip lobby. Right next to Japan Plaza and Daeho.
- Austin DixonMay 26, 2013Great views from room. Great staff. Small rooms. Privacy is an issue with the showers. Great location.
- Ben ZweigOctober 26, 2014Visit the lobby for sake hour and take your glass to the Japanese garden outside.
- Lisa OhalloranNovember 22, 2013Beautiful place to stay, Make sure you take a few minutes to look at the gardens.
- Beautiful decor, but skip the buffet breakfast...they might get sushi right but there are way better places for morning eggs and hash browns. Try Taylor Street Coffee Shop!
- Cole KennedyNovember 5, 2023Rooms have been renovated, but the air conditioning barely works and if you’re in the 2nd floor, you won’t have operable windows. Don’t recommend.
- @irabrianmillerDecember 17, 2013Decent scene all around. Even has free WiFi! Smells like sushi too. Perfect.
- Staff here is awesome. My room has a sauna. Take the time to check out the koi pond/gardens.
- The bar is great, but it's closed on Sunday and Monday. Say hi to the bartender Bill from us!
- Alisha OutridgeMay 27, 2013The gym is tiny but you can watch cable TV while you work out on a decent sized screen
- David SmithSeptember 18, 2014Use the "shuffle" USB port in the bedside dock to charge your iPhone 5/6
- Angelica DongalloOctober 8, 2017Room 1405: Corner room with a 180-degree view! Decent amenities, terrible wifi!!
- Kate LFebruary 19, 2013Insert your room key in the lighted slot to activate the heating/cooling system in your room.
- Apple Co-Founder interview is on Wednesday January 25, 2012 at 9am in the Sakura Room. You can still purchase tickets at the door
http://EmMeCon.com - Kristen VasanJuly 30, 2016Hotel rooms need a face lift. Service is great. The gym was just renovated and has everything from kettle bells to ropes-- really beautiful and enjoyed working out here
- Steven HerronApril 30, 2010Great location if you are competing in #Escapefromalcatraz only 1.7 miles from Marina Green. Very Zen and calming atmosphere Read more
- notcoolinthecoolwayJune 18, 2013Came here for a meeting. Food was a weird & poorly-executed mix of Chinese & Italian dishes.
- Self parking is through the mall parking. Enter on Geary and go to the end.
- PurpleSeptember 14, 2011Good hotel but even with the Do Not Disturb sign on the door they knocked and after 30 minutes the recepition called to ask if they could clean the room. Not cool at all in that kind of hotel.
