Excellent location. Surprisingly quiet despite being in the center of everything. Very clean and friendly. The room was pretty small but great otherwise. If you drive you have to park yourself in one of the nearby parking garages but that’s the case with all the hotels in the heart of the city as best I can tell. If I was just visiting SF I would have skipped the rental car and used public transit. The trolley runs right in front of the hotel.

A gem! Would recommend!

Had a beautiful one night stay at the chancellor hotel. It was for my anniversary, and they gave us a complimentary bottle of Cava and a card which was so sweet and unexpected. The room itself had lots of charm even though small, but expected in the city. Great proximity to union square, the street cars, and Bart. We had a fantastic view on the 11th floor.

Fabulous location & very friendly staff. The property is old (by US standards) but I had plenty of room & closet space for one person. I liked the bathtub & the bed was very comfortable. Don’t miss Alicia who runs the bar - she is a gem & has lots of local knowledge.

“I had a wonderful stay at the Chancellor! From the moment I arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive. My room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything I needed. The amenities, especially [mention a highlight like the pool, breakfast, or gym], made my stay even more enjoyable. The location was perfect, and I appreciated the extra effort the team put into ensuring a great experience. I’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend the Chancellor to anyone visiting San Francisco!”

Amazing property right in the middle of downtown, absolutely loved it. Close to all the shopping, cable cars, subway, wharf, etc. The rooms were nice, but it is an old hotel! Beds were very comfortable, and I did not hear any street noise like other people. It all depends on which side of the hotel you’re staying on. The front desk staff were the best and most helpful staff I’ve ever seen! Highly recommend this property

Let’s start off with the bed… this was very comfortable, so soft & fluffy. The pillows were the same. The bathtub was very deep if you enjoy taking baths and just relaxing. The closet looked like an entire room itself. We were able to store our luggage’s without them getting in the way. The safe is convenient to have there as well. The staff is amazing, we interacted with 7 different employees during our stay and all of them are just wonderful and make you feel comfortable. Thank you again!
