Klara LichtJanuary 18, 2015Comfortable small hotel close to Union Square with cozy rooms, bicycles, a glass of wine for Happy Hour - perfect.
Hotel TonightApril 5, 2011Best place in SF to break out that ascot and monocle and show off that English degree Dad begged you not to get. Don't check out without taking advantage of the free breakfast in the Library Bar.
The free wifi is reliable. The library bar is very nice. The breakfast buffet is great, but it'll cost ya. They'll slip a 5$ coupon under your door if you skip room service for a day.
Hotel was nice, but not kid friendly. No high chairs, elevators small, no kid menu items. I know that this is an grown-up hotel but they could at least have the bare minimum...Oh and valet is a joke.
Terence ChanNovember 3, 2015Decent enough hotel. The room is big for SF. Good location. Water pressure and drainage is a little low but ok. Chic hotel. Elevator is slow and tiny. A little musty 2.5/5
Brian ShefJanuary 18, 2012This hotel is a cozy little joint in the heart of a maajor tourist area in downtown San Francisco. Set your bags down and walk around!
Valorie ReavisJune 28, 2011They have free wine between 5 and 6 pm and show old movies in the bar, which has people lining the floorboards to pack the place out!
Nice hotel overall. Tried the free bicycle and that's fun in SF!
Julianne AFebruary 11, 2011Maximo, the resident hotel dog, is adorable. He's super friendly so be sure to give him some lovin'.
Check out their Monday Movie Night every week! It's a fun place to cure Monday blues.
Love Hotel Rex--Duck into the cozy Lobby for a cocktail. It's like stepping into a 1940s movie. Be famous.
James DickinsonOctober 27, 2013Nice hotel, but needs better management when it comes to some front desk personalities. Read more
Johansson CorreiaJuly 17, 2016Agree with ck fattori, valet is a joke, they charge if you want to use wi-fi. Don't stay at this hotel. Trust me, pick another great ones around this place instead of this shit.
Walls are thin and if your lucky Klingon p0rn will keep you awake til 5am!
- Johansson CorreiaJuly 17, 2016This hotel sucks. Expensive and still they charge for parking your car and don't let you know when you make the check in. Don't help you with the luggage. Awful experience.
