Stayed four nights at Hotel Rex and it suited us perfectly. The room wasn't very big, but was very clean & modern and provided free wireless internet, flat screen TV and a fridge. Location was great... close walking distance to a multitude of shops & restaurants, as well as the cable car, street car and BART for convenient airport transfers.... more

My second time at Hotel Rex and it was just as good as the first. This place just feels right. The rooms are beautiful and comfortable and the prices are a good value. One of the wonderful things about this place is the way they handle the valet parking. Just pull up in front and leave your car. They park... more

I've stayed at The Hotel Rex twice and can't wait to go back. It's my go-to San Francisco hotel - offering everything I'd expect from an eclectic, boutique hotel in the heart of Union Square. There's a casual elegance to the place that's hard to describe, but you feel it from the moment you arrive. On my most recent visit,... more

This is the best, and my favorite boutique hotel in San Francisco. Less than a full block from Union Square, the Hotel Rex is full of character. My favorite part about staying there is the nightly happy hour (no charge for wine) and the phenomenal Friday night music in the library. As a solo traveler, I grab a glass of... more

This hotel is themed like you are inside the New Yorker magazine. Only 2 blocks from Union Square. We stayed there three nights. The room is very large, the bathroom huge, and the service terrific. We enjoyed our stay very much. Check out their web site for more information. We even signed up for their free "San Fransisco Greeter" service,... more

My wife and I made a spontaneous weekend trip to San Francisco, and on short notice were able to get a room at the Hotel Rex, right in the heart of Union Square. The location was excellent, just a few minutes walk (~5 blocks, if memory serves), from the Powell St. BART station. The room was cozy and comfortable, and... more

This was our first trip to San Francisco and the Hotel Rex met every expectation. The location was great. The rooms were clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed out complimentary glass of wine each night. We especially miss Max. He is the Pug that sits in the hotel lobby almost every day. The Hotel has a great... more

Spent a week in may in this cute hotel. Second time (first was a year ago), so i can compare :) Nothing changed - it is almost perfect. Service, staff, bar in the lobby, always clean. But... some rooms need renovation, garbage standing just opposite the exit every evening, absence of the ash try at the street. Small things, my... more

The Rex is a charming boutique hotel that plays up its literary theme with shelves of interesting old books and quotes from authors like Jack London painted on the walls by the elevator. Our room was a king, which was roomy and comfortable. The wine in the evening was a nice touch, and gave us a chance to meet some... more
