What guests think

Common drawbacks include expensive parking and breakfast, elevator or street noise in rooms near shafts or facing streets, occasional dated features, and a rooftop pool that can feel cold or closes early. A few reviews cite housekeeping lapses, odors, or maintenance issues, and some mention a high incidental hold and uneven service responsiveness. If you prioritize views, cleanliness, and easy access to transit with on-site parking, this is a practical and comfortable base for exploring the city.

Facilities

On-site self-parking is secure and convenient with in/out access, but it’s expensive and tight for larger vehicles. The rooftop outdoor pool and gym are handy yet can feel cold or dated to some, and elevator noise affects nearby rooms.

If you are in SF with your own car, this place is the answer. Excellent on-premises garage with 24 hour in-out access. Really, I chose this place for the garage, but everything else turns out to be fantastic, too. Comfy bed. Great views. Quiet, clean rooms. Excellent customer service. Good location. Especially when I need the garage, I never shop around—I just instantly re-book right here.

Clean rooms, and I got the parking package which made it really easy for me. Convenient location and near by transportation and food. Friendly staff and I love that they have hand soap and lotion in the rooms. It was a bit annoying to have the water station only located inside the gym and to have the lobby bathroom to be hotel guest only. The moment I check out I couldn't use the bathroom or get water. But overall it was a great stay!

My husband and I went for 3 night. We loved that the hotel is right next to the cable car that will take you through Chinatown all the way to fisherman’s wharf. The pool closes really early so that sucks and the outside lounge area also closes early 8pm. Our room was right next to the electrical room which we did not like. The room itself was spacious and clean. We parked on the 5th floor underneath a rusted bar and needed up breaking and there was metal pieces on top on our car but the maintenance man was helpful and watered it down for it to avoid scratches. Overall we really enjoyed the location because it gave us access to see a lot from where we started.

Start with good: 1. Location very easy access to the main attractions. 2. View from the 10th floor was great. 3. Bed was for once old enough not to feel like a concrete floor. But it was old.... Now the bad: The carpet crunched and was super stained. Replace please, or do concrete / tile. Gross and disgusting. 2. The bathroom sink stunk of sewage. We reported it twice and got perfume sprayed, but not fixed. Finally plugged the drain and overflow to stop the stench. Fix it please. It doesn't take much to remove trap and clean. When told of some need, don't send perfume spray instead. Asthma is real. Gross. 3. Parking in SF is a glorious money scam so cost of parking is at least a room price. Plan 25% additional cost for that everywhere and here. Plus, parking spots teeny even for our compact car. 4. Not in the least disabled friendly. Parking spots few and not laid out for wheelchairs. Rooms not spacious enough to turn around in a walker even. We handicapped people travel and spend money too. Be more mindful and fix that. 5. Price for breakfast a joke. Don't spend 40 bucks a person for a buffet of bad food. No microwave in rooms so you will fork over for breakfast. A good bagel place is a few businesses away. Don't pretend the crappy coffee is worth what they charged. Go to coffee places nearby We will try for a different hotel if we ever get back to SF. Just too old, dated, and ignored by staff to fix broken things like sewage sinks.

The staff was very nice and helpful. The room was clean, but our towels had some questionable stains on them. Beds were super comfortable, and our view was great. My main complaint was with the hot water. It would only stay hot enough for one quick shower, so we had to time our showers more than an hour apart. Forget taking a bath, you'd get a couple of inches of water in the tub before it would run cold. One important thing to note about this location is that it is just one street over from the Tenderloin neighborhood. If you're not familiar with Tenderloin in San Francisco, google it. Literally one street over, the hotel is right on the border. So map out your route if you plan on exploring.

I found a bug on my mattress the very first night. I called the concierge, and they changed my room to a twin bedroom. I thought it was going to be temporary, but they didn’t change the room (my initial room was a king-size bed). I asked for room service and cleaning once during my stay, but they only changed the dirty towels, the bed was fixed but the sheets were the same ones. The coffee maker in the room was faulty and every other time we had to filled the water more than what we had to and empty the water for no reason. This was a horrible experience with the Holidays Inn. I’ve been to other Holidays places and defiantly won't suggest this place at all.

Right at 12 o’clock after nine hours flight check in the Room stink like a dog I have a meeting at 7 o’clock in the morning. No time for complain. Being so tired. Need to go to bed. Get up early. I complain the next day when I arrive from my meeting. The Room was nice and clean, but it’s still smelly. So I went to the store and got car refreshment, and I help a lot After my complaint to keep the Room nice and clean parking. Not free at all $45 a day walking to your room from the parking get a couple stair downs disgust in Thirty de Neve Cliend, the stairs, Walking to your car. At that point. I didn’t know the City. I have a hard time finding a good Hotel And I have a meeting every day. $45 parking every day. I’ve spent $400 in parking beside my bill. Hotel need to get free parking into the guest. That was ridiculous.

Many rooms are comfortable with standout city views, especially on higher or corner floors; some are spacious. Downsides include elevator or street noise in certain rooms, dated elements, doubles instead of queens, and slower Wi-Fi unless you pay for an upgrade.

The hotel was clean, the staff friendly. The location was good to get around to local tourist attractions. A great coffee ahop just around the corner and other places to dine within walking distant. The local bus transit was a couple block either direction. I was disappointed that they stuck us in a room right by the elevators, so we had the noise of that and our room was exceptionally small. They weren't full, I'm sure they had other rooms available.

Super low ceiling hallway to enter sleeping area with more normal height ceiling one entered. Room itself was adequately clean—not impeccable. Had requested view—was on 22nd floor and had city view which was pleasant. Hotel had easy walking access to shopping and dining. Walked to a couple good restaurants. Would consider returning if staying in SF again.

I called and spoke to a staff member and explained that we were staying for our daughter’s stay at the children’s hospital for an important procedure and explained that an early check in would be extremely helpful for us. They said to call back the day of our stay so I did and the woman laughed over the phone at me saying it was too early and they were booked so nothing guaranteed. So rude and the worst customer service. Anything but hospitable. The doors were SO loud opening and closing all night sounding like they were in our room. The beds were uncomfortable and floors not clean. I got zero sleep. Would not recommend. Only the man at the desk was nice at check in.

Front desk at check in was rude and not willing to help. I asked to switch rooms because I am a light sleeper and I didn’t want to be next to the elevators. She responded “we’re full”. No customer service skills at all. I am confident that if you book through Expedia and get a deal, the hotel will give you the worst room (by the elevator that is extremely noisy). This happened to me on 2 separate occasions. You can hear the elevator going up and down frequently. It is so loud that I could hear it even through my earplugs.

Upon arrival we were met with a $500 credit card hold. I travel for work around 15-20 times per year and have never ever been told I had to pay a $500 deposit for a room anywhere including other holiday inn's, sister IHG hotels, even at far more expensive hotels. It's kind of insane... Add-in an additional $49 per day for parking. Oh and if you need any packages delivered it's $3 per package (they don't even bring it to your room) and of course Amazon ships everything in separate boxes can add up really quick Otherwise it's a good location, clean rooms, okay beds, but their price and hidden fees and holds makes this location feel like they forgot they are a holiday inn and want to get JW or International rates

The location and easy parking were definitely a plus. However, we were extremely disappointed upon arrival. Despite booking our room months in advance, we were told at check-in that the room we reserved was no longer available and we were downgraded due to the hotel being “fully booked.” This is completely unacceptable. When a reservation is made well in advance, especially with a reputed hotel chain like IHG, guests should not be penalized for the hotel’s overbooking or poor management. We expected better standards and reliability.

I booked a 3 night stay with my two kids. The first night was great. However the second night was horrible. There was a couple fighting and screaming all night in the room next to us. We called front desk to let them know. The security came up to tell them to quiet down. That angered them and they were banging on the wall that connected to our room. We had to check out 4am and didn’t stay for the 3rd night. I was very disappointed that they didn’t help with our refund for the second and third night.

This hotel was perfect for my trip. It was clean, comfortable & easy to get around. While the location is not central to a lot of the touristy sights, there are many options to get around. It is far from Muni Train lines but plenty of buses, cabs (Waymo) or bikes in the area. The rooms are a little dated but it’s perfect for sleep. There is a mini fridge in the room & the hotel has a restaurant with a small bar. I did not use the pool but it does have one. I recommend the coffee shop around the corner; Juniper for breakfast. Lots of places around this hotel for food & drink. I never felt unsafe around this hotel including at night. Reasonable rates make this a great place to stay if visiting San Francisco.

Had I know this I would have chose breakfast and paid the 25$ for parking a day. The 3 nights we stayed parking would have been 75$ vs 240$ for 3 days for 2 people… not cool

The Pros- The room was a nice size. The hotel staff was nice and friendly. The restaurant had amazing food and the service was great. The bar was very accessible and made great drinks. The hotel is in a great area close to all the nice tourist spots. We were able to go everywhere we wanted to with 30mins of driving. The Cons- However the room shower had mold and dries soap in it. The carpet in the room was crunchy as it was cleaned but soap was left in it. We had to call the front desk for any assistance we needed. We couldn’t reach house keeping when we called. The power was out on primary wall. We had to go the front desk to get assistance. I thinks those things should have been checked before giving that room out to a guest.
