Check in great very nice and efficient staff!
Jane, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel was great, not a lot of space (if you have a bigger group) but it was a great size for a couple. The bar in the hotel was great, right down the street from china town so there’s a lot of great food options. Overall it’s a great hotel

staff were so kind and the room was lovely!

Boutique hotel with charm. Wish restaurant was opened and it had been less noisy with the outside protests.
Jess, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is very convenient to some of the landmarks of SF, very convyto public transportation. The room is very clean and cute for a single traveler like me. I will definitely come back and stay in the hotel again.

Great stay
Daniel, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The palihotel is beautifully decorated and feels so special to stay in. I highly recommend it for people who plan on walking during their stay and are looking for something different than any other hotel. I very much appreciated the Dyptique scents in the room as well.
shivani, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very good location with walking distance to China Town and Union Square. The hotel had a vibe of "boutique hotel" which was nice. We stayed in a room that was not facing the street but it might be good to know that the street outside the hotel is quite busy. Parking Garage is really close by, we paid $48 per night.

I’m a return customer here… love the rooms, central location, and staff. Quirky & breezy atmosphere - so much better than a big chain hotel.

Loved staying here for the night with my partner. Everything is walking distance, bars, union square. Really loved staying here and the staff was really nice :)

4/10 Fair

Had a massive storm the night we stayed and the ceiling was leaking and flooded the bathroom.
Noah, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice little hotel. Old timey and quaint. Particularly loved the old elevator. Staff were all very nice and facilities were clean and tidy.
Sean, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place, good location. There was some noise nearby, unrelated to this hotel. Striking hotel workers were banging drums nearby, demanding better pay, as they should. Would stay here again.
Joel, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Really unique property, love the period design details. Room was nice and comfortable. Windows were relatively thin so a lot of noise from the area can be heard at times. Staff were friendly and quick to support any needs.
Jordan Michael, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I had a really great experience, especially with the help from Lovely at the front desk. Lovely went above and beyond to help me with the logistics of loading in an extra large amount of luggage and was very kind. There was also a man whose name I didn't get who was very kind and helpful. Overall it was a great experience and I would recommend a stay here.
Adrienne, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Bad experience
We’ve stayed at many hotels, and this is the first time we’ve encountered a situation where guests have to register online just to request housekeeping services. This is extremely unreasonable and inconvenient for travelers. The entire place has a strange smell lingering in the air. When storing your luggage, you have to attach the luggage tag yourself.

Great value for money! It was our second stay and everything was perfect
2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff was great, particularly Rachel and Lovely. The location and condition were also great. My only issue was the sink: It was tiny, and the shelf above it made it difficult to use. Otherwise, I would recommend this hotel.
Grace, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff so helpful and friendly. Good location to getting around the city. There was a strike at another hotel and drums and noise was pretty loud, not any of Palihotel. I would stay here again.
