1625 Post Street, San Francisco, CA 94115, United States of America –

Lock in a great price for Hotel Kabuki, a Joie de Vivre Hotel – rated 8.5 by recent guests!

to get started.

Location and friendly staff. We’ve stayed at Hotel Kabuki many times over the last three years. It’s like returning home to old friends.

Jean, United States of America

Did not have the breakfast but walked to Sweet Maple. Liked the location and the helpful staff.

Thomas, United States of America

Convenient location for Japantown activities--we attended Cherry Blossom Festival events. Pleasant, comfortable accommodations, and nicely landscaped garden areas.

Carole, United States of America

Great beds, comfortabel rooms and nice staff. Location in Japan town is nice as long as you have a car. Probably not a great spot if you are a family and have to rely on public transportation. Rooms were very clean, very nice breakfast (not a lot of choice but all no e and fresh options. We loved that our toddler got these nice gifts at breakfast. Live music in the lobby in the evening and to close with what stood out (as mentioned before) really great beds. We slept like babies.

Harm, United States of America

Loved the whole atmosphere of the bar and lobby. The gardens and koi pond are so relaxing and well kept. Our room was really comfortable, clean, and charming. The breakfast was fresh and healthy with delicious coffee as well!

Margaret, United States of America

Very thematically appealing, something uncommon in most hotels of the caliber

Tyler, United States of America

The location is great in Japan town and the lobby and downstairs area is very hip and nice. Rooms are nothing special, small bland, no effort in decor.

Sara, United States of America

Beautiful downstairs lounge with light food and bar service. Rooms exceedingly large for San Francisco and very very comfortable! My view was wonderful. Next to a Japanese mall full of shops and food. Korean BBQ all you can eat across the street.

Abigail, United States of America

The room was larger than most in San Francisco and extra amenities like gym, zen garden and free bike use. We enjoyed the convenience of the hotel linked to a mall where there are a lot of restaurants, shops and Japanese dollar stores.

I parked on the street during our stay and while parked on Laguna street, someone smashed a window of our car. Nothing was taken as there was nothing in the car, but dealing with the smashed window was a bummer.
Did not have the breakfast but walked to Sweet Maple. Liked the location and the helpful staff.

“Convenient, comfortable stay in upscale Japantown hotel”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Superior King Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
1. Did not like the "guest amenity" fees that were in addition to the cost of accommodations. At most hotels, use of wi-fi and gym are included in the cost of the hotel stay. Since the basic cost at this hotel is already high, it should include those services. 2. There were sharp protrusions from the edge of the carpet where it met the bathroom floor at the doorway. This may be material used to attach the carpet to the floor. It caused snagging of the fibers on our socks, and could cause injury to bare feet. 3. There was no gift shop or convenience store on site, although there were stores nearby. 4. Hotel description stated airport shuttle was available. However, when I called the hotel to make arrangements, I was informed that we were to contact private Super Shuttle company, since the hotel did not provide shuttle services but would assist with making arrangements.

The lack of wardrobe space in the rooms, one small rail and no drawers etc made hanging clothes difficult for both me and my partner. We both ended up living out of our suitcases which is never easy!
The rooms were lovely, clean and very spacious! The staff were amazing and the hotel itself was super cool and the bar area always busy and fun! The location was perfect, 10 mins by bus from Union Sq or literally an 8 min uber! Japan centre is linked to the hotel and has so many cool Asian food places / shops! Great neighbourhood!

Bed was comfy, shower was huge and included two shower heads and a built-in bench and the corner balcony was a bonus!

The hotel tricks people by adding in "services fees" You think you got a good deal on this hotel but the add ons are crazy. We paid $57 for parking, $37 - automatic charge- for wifi and access to a water spicket in the lobby (no water bottles provided). I travel a ton and have never seen this-- it felt deceptive.
The location is great in Japan town and the lobby and downstairs area is very hip and nice. Rooms are nothing special, small bland, no effort in decor.

Being that it was San Francisco the price was a little steep but I felt that it was worth what I spent. Will visit there again next time I’m in San Francisco.
Beautiful downstairs lounge with light food and bar service. Rooms exceedingly large for San Francisco and very very comfortable! My view was wonderful. Next to a Japanese mall full of shops and food. Korean BBQ all you can eat across the street.

Beautiful lounge areas. Casual but elegant decor
