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!

Great staff and hotel. Perfect location. Reasonable parking fees for a covered and staffed car park 50m from the hotel. The rooms are great, very stylish and clean. The lift was perfectly operable and not too slow, during our stay.

Good: Convenient area surrounded by shops and restaurants, close to Bart Relatively safe neighborhood Low price Bad: Small room, even smaller bathroom Impractical design. The table is tiny like those small round coffee table at a European cafe, and the chairs are equally uncomfortable The washing sink is extremely tiny and the wood shelf panel above the sink blocks me from brushing my teeth. Room has no water kettle and no coffee TV remote is missing Only 1 staff that I can see at night, he told me there's another one somewhere but still it's understaffed

Enjoyed the convenience to Chinatown and Union Square, the only downside was the noise, which was to be expected in a city like San Francisco. The staff were great and the Hotel in pretty good shape. One downside was the lack of bar/dining in the hotel itself at the time of our stay. I have stayed at other Pali properties in the past and really enjoyed their onsite bar/restaurants in those. Overall pretty good experience!

My stay at the Palihotel San Francisco was absolutely fantastic. The hotel's location is incredibly convenient, situated in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore all the major attractions. The rooms are stylishly decorated with a modern touch and maintained a high level of cleanliness throughout my stay. The bed was extremely comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep after a day of sightseeing. The staff at the Palihotel were friendly and attentive, always ready to assist with any inquiries or requests. The hotel's amenities, including the on-site restaurant and bar, provided a delightful dining experience with a diverse menu and excellent service. One unique aspect of this hotel is its charming interior design that combines contemporary elements with a cozy ambiance, making it a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city. I also appreciated the little touches like complimentary coffee and tea in the lobby, which added to the overall positive experience. There wasn't anything I didn't like about my stay. From the moment I checked in until my departure, everything was seamless and exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend the Palihotel San Francisco to anyone visiting the city, whether for business or leisure.

Lovely cute little hotel but the rooms is very small, and almost all rooms back out into an alleyway, which can be busy with other people. Bin collection is 7:30 in the morning on Sunday, and the truck comes right into the alleyway so you won't be able to miss it! :)

The elevator was down for the majority of our stay and we were located on the 5th floor. There was no warning that this could be an issue and there was no compensation offered for the inconvenience.

My fiancé and I, along with several friends, booked three rooms for a wedding photo shoot. We requested all three rooms be next to each other on the same floor. During check-in, the receptionist informed us that only two rooms could be adjacent, while the third would be down the hall on the same floor. Since one of our friends had not arrived yet, we could not obtain keys for all three rooms. We decided to take the two adjacent rooms, leaving the third room on the same floor for our friend. When our friend arrived to check in, the receptionist informed us that the room we had reserved for them was no longer available and that they would have to stay on a different floor. Despite explaining the importance of having all rooms on the same floor for our wedding event, the hotel staff simply apologized and offered a room on another floor, claiming it was larger. However, upon inspection, the room was not any bigger than the other two. Adding to our frustration, upon returning to our room after a brief outing, we found that four rolls of toilet paper and the body wash dispenser had been removed, even though housekeeping had already serviced the room for the day. First, he assured us that all three rooms would be on the same floor, and then he claimed that the relocated room was larger, which was not the case. Overall, our experience with the Pali Hotel was disappointing, and we would not recommend it for anyone needing specific room arrangements for special occasions.
