It was the price, the simple old euro design, the historical essence, boutique charm, the doorman ( like an old time movie…so sweet the sights) 🎦 and location that made our stay just right for that night going to broadway sf.

The rooms are clean and cozy with a nice bathtub of soaking. They even include some nice touches like bath salts and a little rubber duck with the Chancellor Hotel contact info to take home. This was our third time staying here and we always enjoy it.

We went to a concert at the Moscone Center and stayed at The Chancellor for a night. Great walking distance from the venue (15 minute walk). Really close to diners, foods shopping. Pretty busy area so it can get noisy. Union square after all. The room was clean and charming. Loved how the hotel was old school looking. Got a double bed room. It was a tight fit but good for spending the night. There was a walk-in closet which was interesting. Plenty of space for luggage in there. Overall good stay. I would come back.

The room was clean anr it came with everything you'll need in your stay (except for toothpaste, which was fine). The staff were very polite and approachable. There's even free coffee and lemon water at the lobby, perfect for refreshments. They'd clean the room even when you don't request. Most importantly, they offer free luggage storage!

We really enjoyed our stay, the room and the bathroom were very clean and smelled delightful. The staff were very friendly and polite. We loved the vintage feel of the hotel and felt very comfortable. We will be returning next spring to attend a San Francisco Giants game and we will be staying at the Chancellor Hotel!
