The ceiling fan was struggling to cool the room but we were from a cold climate in NZ. We could have opened the windows but the escape ladder was right outside and we weren’t sure it would be safe to sleep with them open.

The location was great. In the middle so you could walk everywhere including Fisherman’s Wharf and Union Square. Coffee machine in the downstairs lobby. Nice little corner cafe about a minute away with great coffee, danish and muffins. The room had everything you needed and the building as a whole had a lot of character. Lower Nob hill so the hills were ok and we hardly saw any homeless on the streets around us.

We were in the penthouse suite and the jets on the tub did not work and the toilet overflowed.

The location. The view from the penthouse is very nice as well as the roof patio.

The elevator is a little old, just like the building itself. There were a couple instances where it randomly stopped between floors. I did not feel like I was in too much danger. I decided to take the stairs instead. I also wish the cleaning staff would come a little bit more frequently.

The staff was very friendly. I loved the location. The room was the size that I expected. The restaurant downstairs also had very delicious food that I enjoyed. Overall, it was a fun stay. No complaints.

bed could have been a bit bigger considering the room is spatious. A bit noisy. Breakfast ok but not the best

modern room, confortable bed. No close to a metro station but still well positioned to visit the city. At the border of not nice area but still close to supermarket and safer streets

Ok.

Rooms was noisy. We were streetside and the windows don't stop any noise from coming in. Thankfully the city quietens down around 11pm.

Room was bright, bed was comfortable and everything was clean.

The area, but hey what can you do.

It was very clean! We enjoyed the fresh air from the window that actually opened. The free breakfast was decent. The valet was good value.

old lift a bit tricky

Helpfull staff and old classic vibe

The valet parking was really expensive and not especially well advertised as such before we booked (we thought it came with free parking, oops!)— suggest parking out of town and getting public transport in. The bed wasn’t very comfy for me (against a wall on one side and squashed as well as soft) and the room was too small for us to unpack our luggage comfortably.

The hotel felt modern and clean and the free continental breakfast and coffee was a great plus too! The location was decent, but be prepared to walk a number of blocks for the best public transport connections.

Could hear everything from the guests next-door just a regular door separated us. Could hear them talking and when they came home late. It was fine for one night, but I would not have stayed there for multiple days.

The hotel was cute-it felt like a European hostel- and the beds were very comfortable. The staff was nice.

Quite noisy at night as we were staying in a room by the street, a lot of cars and ambulances (as hospital is right next door) but it was fine. House keeping would come in unannounced which I didn’t like.

Hotel was beautiful! Great location! Very clean! Very comfy! Safe location! 10 min walk to union square to the shops and restaurants! Coffee shop right next door! Bar and shop just around the corner too! Restaurant down stairs looked nice, but we didn’t try it! Also breakfast was included. Coffee machine downstairs which you could get coffee whenever. There was an ice machine and microwave in the hall aswell! Reception staff were lovely and very friendly! Let us check out at 12 with no charge!

The rooms need a safe.

On the one hand I liked the location, but it is on the fringe of some shady parts. We learnt not to go down hill, always up. The property was lovely. The restaurant was amazing. The staff were kind and helpful.

Stayed in August 2025

Some of the fixtures in the room needed fixing but otherwise it was great.

The staff were very helpful and great location. We loved the restaurant "Penaber". Beautiful food and lovely staff. We also loved Crostini and Java (cnr cafe) Amazing food and coffee!

Very small rooms. Difficult to open your suitcases and walk in the room. The coffee in the entrance makes it smell a bit of urine.

Good location for the price

Our room was on the front street and it was incredibly noisy outside due to vehicles. Could hear everything even with windows closed. This isn't the hotel's fault of course!!!

Lovely room, good location (go UP the hill!), very comfy pillows and bed, clean and great facilities, breakfast and complimentary hot drinks (available 24/7) was a great plus. Lovely, traditional San Franciscan hotel.

Pillows are horrible. They are too high…. Bed was also questionably comfortable but okay…

The building is classy, rustic and cozy.

Parking price is crazy!!! Many homeless people around. Breakfast was really basic

Clean and cozy place, central location, but a lot of homeless.

Stayed in July 2025

There was a large stain on one of the upholstery pieces, and the rooms were small. The parking was expensive.

It was fairly clean, good price for the location, and the parking was convenient since they park and bring your car for you.

Good size room and staff were friendly and helpful. Belt service was great as picked up a car alongside complementary breakfast which was a nice Suprise!

While the Nob Hill Hotel offers a charming stay and excellent access to San Francisco’s top attractions, guests should be aware that walking toward certain areas like the Tenderloin may require extra caution. The city is actively working to address homelessness, but street conditions can be unpredictable. Planning your walking routes ahead and staying alert is recommended.

I had a lovely experience at Nob Hill Hotel in San Francisco. The location is fantastic—just a short walk or cable car ride to iconic spots like Pier 39, Lombard Street, and Union Square. It made exploring the city incredibly convenient. The hotel itself has a quaint, historic charm with Victorian-style decor that adds character to the stay. My room was clean and comfortable, and while the breakfast was simple, it was a nice touch to start the day—toast, cereal, fruit, and coffee were available. Staff were generally helpful, and the atmosphere felt cozy and welcoming. If you're looking for a budget-friendly hotel with great access to San Francisco’s top attractions, Nob Hill Hotel is a solid choice.

walking near the Tenderloin requires caution due to visible homelessness and street conditions.

Charming and budget-friendly with Victorian decor and a simple breakfast. Excellent location near Pier 39, Lombard Street, and Union Square. However,
