The Pickwick Hotel San Francisco

The hotel was situated right in Union Square near the mall and other stores for shopping. The cable cars were one block away. Many restaurants in walking distance. Because it’s an older hotel (1929) the walls are not thin and very quiet at night. Loved that the windows opened to allow fresh air in.

Good location, 5 min from cable car to Pier 39. Shopping right next to the hotel. 10 min to Union Square. Very friendly reception, helpful manager on duty. Parking practical just under the hotel, but pricy but similar to other options. Could get car at anyntime. Rooms were clean, decent. Fridge was turned off, but service person fixed it within 5 min. Teen kids appreciated the small training room.

Was able to extend our stay at a good price. Reception staff always helpful and assisted me to get theatre tickets printed as I was having internet issues. Ended up extending an extra week and gave us suggestions of activities to do... eg a baseball game, tour to Yosemite NP, tour to alcatraz.

This is an older hotel that has been renovated to meet modern standards, while preserving some of its older styling that sets it apart from staying in one of the chain hotels nearby. The location is great, just a few blocks away from Union Square. We were told that the hotel will soon see renovation.

An old building but rooms were very modern and nicely decorated
