Top Civic Center Plaza Hotel Reviews

Hotel Julian

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was in a great location, not far from all the tourist places usually visited. Rooms were clean and staff very friendly. Hotel does not offer parking but there is street parking within a block or two."

The Marker Union Square San Francisco

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed the spacious room and wanted to commend Charles at the front desk for being friendly and very helpful with requests, including late checkout. The included breakfast should be expanded to allow for more than one meal and could offer less expensive options such as yogurt and granola or pancakes. Alternatively, offering a small fee for an upgrade would also be better than eating the same breakfast for 3 days. We did not use one of the breakfasts. Good location for walking and the gym is great. Please adjust the amenities listing because it says yoga mat and balance ball in the room which was not correct."

Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

8/10 Good

"Great location and nice lobby. Unfortunately, the lobby bar is closed on Sundays. Rooms are fairly nice and the lack of air conditioning is rarely an issue. Outlets near the bed are awkward to reach (near the floor) but there is a nice power strip on the desk. Chain pull to control fan was not working, so I had to turn the light/fan off to turn off the fan."

Tilden Hotel

8/10 Good

"Overall pretty good experience here. The room was clean and overall pretty nice. Ammenity-wise the hotel didn't have ton to offer (or the staff didn't mention it, anyway), but the attached restaurant was good. The elevator was maybe the smallest passenger elevator I've ever been on- 3 of us without any bags or suitcases couldn't stand in it without rubbing elbows. They could also benefit from security that some of the other hotels have- there was no one manning the door and no swipe access needed to get upstairs via stairs or elevators."

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff and comfortable stay"

Holiday Inn Golden Gateway by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent view of the city, clean rooms and facilities."

Hotel G San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, quiet room. Loved the vintage feel of the room. Hotel conveniently located with restaurants near. Only frustration was one working elevator and it was slow. Everything else was wonderful."

The Pickwick Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very decent place to stay with “Maltese Falcon” movie history."

Hotel EPIK

10/10 Excellent

"I would say this was pretty much as advertised, and a good value for a place to stay with easy access to the Bill Graham auditorium for a show. I would stay there again. That part of town is undeniably sketchy, certainly not the fault of the hotel, should know that before you reserve. Nobody bothered me and the walk to the Civic Center was fine."
