Lock in a great price for Kimpton Buchanan Hotel – rated 8.2 by recent guests!

to get started.

The daily happy hour was fun! The decor was great and the location ideal.

Na, United States of America

The staff was wonderful! Location is ideal for those who like to see/do it all. The on-site restaurant, happy hour and first floor outdoor patio with games and seating was very relaxing during down time. The rooms was very spacious with a great view and extremely comfortable beds!

Nicolette, United States of America

The bed and the pillows were super comfortable, all amenities supplied, staff very friendly and LOVED the yoga mat and kimonos in the room! The location is great, close to everything, quiet and residential. Superb experience!

Maeve, Ireland

Loved daily happy hour in the lobby. Loved the easy access parking. Loved walking across the street to amazing restaurants in Japantown. Loved the luxurious sheets!

Eileen, United States of America

Absolutely great idea to offer a wine tasting from 5pm to 6pm. A good opportunity to socialise with other guests.

Arnaud, France

The lobby, happy hour, proximity to great places to drink, eat and/or shop.

Douglas, United States of America

Comfortable beds, quiet, great restaurants nearby, convenient parking garage and clean! Happy Hour wine was wonderful and location location location!

Susan, United States of America

I loved the spacious ess of the room And bathroom. The amenities were well fragranced and of good quality. The staff at the feont desk were cool. The iron in the room didnt work and housekeeping had one up in two minutes.

Ceslie, United States of America

The best staff in SF with sweet 'home-away-from-home' service at a reasonable cost; ie (no reason to put up with dodgy cleanliness or uncertain legality of SF Airbnbs).

Awims, United States of America

Beautiful hotel, with modern upgrades and non generic art. Classy and affordable in comparison to big "chain" resorts and traditional vintage hotels which need remodel.

눇Small hotel on the edge ofJapantown, great lounge area to chat, fast internet access, staff friendly and willing to help. Room was larger with small window seat overlooking the street and Japantown, great blackout blinds for sleeping late. Beds very comfortable. Buses from city run to nearby street (25 minutes) and car to ferry takes 10-15 minutes.

“clean, modern but lacks breakfast options”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • King Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉Negatives - hotel entrance would always be full of flies for some unexplained reason. Entrance is also kind of tricky as the ramp is actually on the side entrance. There wasn't anyone to help us with luggages at first. Also be careful with which room you choose-- there's a side that faces directly to a pre-school playground so weekday mornings can be quite loud. Negative points for the facilities (even though it offers free bikes-only two available though- and happy hour) - the gym was very meh (tiny room with maybe 2 things) and the hotel itself doesnt have breakfast. There's a cafe linked to the Hotel on the first floor but the breakfast was terrible. They should really take a look into that as the bad breakfast negatively affects the overall stay. I'm big on hotel breakfasts so if you are as well, this might not be the place for you!
눇Rooms were lovely especially the ones facing Japan Town. They were spacious, modern and clean. The bed was great. Had stayed at the Kabuki last time and in comparison this one has a much more modern feel as everything seems super new. Great location for those who like Asian food, conveniently near japanese mall with cosmetic stores, yummy eats and Daiso. Asian supermarket also nearby.
