What guests think

At Warwick San Francisco, travellers consistently praise the friendly, attentive staff and the central, walkable location near Union Square, while noting the surrounding area can feel sketchy at night and some rooms are small, older, or noisy.

Cleanliness is often rated well, though some guests encountered odors, maintenance issues, or lapses such as hair in bathrooms and, in a few cases, pest sightings. Amenities include a cozy bar and restaurant with complimentary wine or happy hour, and valet parking, though experiences with dining and valet can be mixed. Best for travelers comfortable with a vintage feel and limited extras.

Great location walking distance to all the attractions! Little outdated and small rooms. Car valet service is horrible, my husband and I waited over an hour to get our car!

We loved staying at the Warwick. The customer service was exceptional! Nestor and the desk staff were so welcoming and helpful. We requested ice twice and also extra towels and they were so accomodating. We well definitely stay there again.

The neighborhood is somewhat off-putting, but staying at the Warwick was worth it. The staff was friendly, and we were offered free drinks at the bar at the end of each day. The rooms were quite spacious for the price -- and well laid out. I'd happily stay there again.

We enjoyed our stay with our family at the Warwick. We reserved a suite so it had plenty of room and the perk of two bathrooms! With a teenager that is especially helpful. The sweetest perk was complimentary glass of wine each night for the adults! We would stay there again for sure!

I think the room was fine but the thermostat and hanger in the closet didn’t work (couldn’t use the closet at all). Also, I felt this hotel is unsafe (elevators don’t require room keys to get to rooms, something that I think it’s unacceptable in a city like SFO). Last, it doesn’t have a gym.

Room wasn’t clean. Fell asleep in the bed and didn’t realize it was dirty. There was crumbs and contact lenses inside the sheets. Coffee maker was previously used and unclean. Took a bath and didn’t realize the tub was not clean either and was swimming and someone else’s hair. Gave my phone number to front desk for general manager to give me a call and still haven’t received a call back. I booked one of the nicer rooms, hoping to give myself a solo getaway and ended up disappointed and grossed out.

Hair in the shower. The sink didn't drain. The building is old, but can't the furniture, carpet, and paint get updated? It felt like it hasn't been updated in decades. The expensive valet service always took more than 10 minutes, they always adjusted the seat and never returned it back, they kept leaving the seatbelt strapped in so I had to remove it every time I went to sit in, and they never looked at me or greeted me. Not a lick of customer service. This should be rated a 2 star hotel. Not 3.

Staff were nice and attentive. However I did notice that the sheets on the bed had stains which they changed for me. Also the carpet in the room had stains. I will say the photos look nicer than in person. The hotel is located next to public transportation which was nice but have to be careful if you plan on walking a certain direction due to the homeless people.

I had a great stay *except* that the 4 pillows on my bed were all thick and lumpy. I didn't sleep well because of them the first 2 nights. When I mentioned it to my friend, she gave me the one pillow on her bed that wasn't lumpy, and my last 2 nights were more comfortable. Ideally they would offer a choice of hard vs soft and thick vs thin pillows to accommodate various needs. I have stayed at other hotels who do provide options.

They charge you a hidden fee of $36 per day that they do not disclose to you upon arrival. When you ask them about the charge they tell you very calmly that it is what it is and you should resolve it with your bank or booking agent. The front desk is very unpolite and will hang up the phone even if you are talking. Also, they didn't have hot water in the room I stayed and and didn't give me another room until the next day and still charged me for that day. Very bad service and stealing money from you.

Where do I even begin? This hotel is an absolute disgrace. Not only did I lose my wallet due to my own forgetfulness (which I take responsibility for), but the hotel staff turned a simple mistake into a complete nightmare. They promised to ship my wallet promptly, then failed miserably. Days later, I\'m dealing with fraudulent charges on my credit cards and a level of incompetence from the staff that is truly astounding. From the dismissive front desk clerk who told me to simply "send an email" to the elusive General Manager who apparently only works night shifts, it\'s clear that customer service and basic security are not priorities at this establishment. Instead of taking responsibility and resolving the issue, they seem more concerned with a new GM starting next week. Unbelievable! This experience has been incredibly stressful and has completely shattered my trust in this hotel. I will NEVER book with them again and urge others to think twice before considering this establishment. You\'re better off sleeping on a park bench than risking your valuables and peace of mind at the Warwick San Francisco or their chains.

The heater did not work and the manager blamed us for pushing the button too much as the cause of it not working. The night staff sent a portable heater which only worked for one of the rooms so the adjoining room was freezing still. Around 3 am the heater turned on and started working but got stuck at 90 degrees so we just shut it off. We did not get much sleep. They did not offer a new room or any other accommodations or compensation for such an uncomfortable night. On top of that they took out $150 for deposit and then also charged me $268 when I already paid for the hotel in full ahead of time. When I called to get this fixed I was given the run around and had to wait hours to call back and speak with the manager. The hotel was clean, but the manager was rude and not service driven. She needs a lesson in customer service. She treated us like we were just lucky to be able to stay there. Not like we were paying customers.
