No Air Conditioning, average temp in room was mid 80's suggestion was to open windows, not safe and it was in low 90's outside! No restaurant, though advertised that they had on onsite it did not in fact exist. No coffee, despite 3 requests they never got the coffeepot to work. they did offer free coffee at 7 but I was up and out by 6.

A typical SF hotel where parking fee is always required and it can be sometimes hard to find parking. There is a parking structure right across from the hotel. The hotel is quaint and small, but its also in front of a crazy busy street. The room itself was cute and small, perfect for 2! We enjoyed how it looked and even enjoyed some of the drinks and snacks they had to offer.

Historic yet hip, low-key chic, tranquil design vibes, all of which are a big plus in my book. Kind, friendly staff.

This is a wonderful old style hotel, but tastefully remodelled. The coffee room in the morning is elegant- from a bygone era. Most of all, the staff and guests were all very friendly. It was really a nice stay, and the prices are very reasonable. Location hard to beat. I'll be back

My boyfriend and I had an amazing stay at Palihotel SF! They were able to check us in early because we were going to outsidelands and they were very attentive and helpful. The 100 year old elevator was pretty cool too! AC worked. It was also very convenient to walk to union square and the parking is close. Would recommend staying here!
