I stayed at the Handlery only because the city was booked solid for a large convention. The rates were high due to the convention, but I think normal rates are more reasonable. The third floor of the hotel, where I stayed is dated - think old heavily painted woodwork and glass knobbed doors - but clean and the furniture and... More

I stayed here 22 years ago and when it came to choosing a hotel this time there was only one place for my wife and I. Our stay here was very pleasant. Staff were helpful and informative. Room was brilliant (level 5 on the street frontage) which gave us the sounds of San Francisco to enjoy at night. However, if... More

This hotel was decent - not great, but not terrible. I didn't want to spend a lot of money for a long weekend and needed it to be pretty centrally located to most bars/restaurants so this hotel satisfied both those requirements. Rooms were small, but decent, and clean. The only real big complaint was the staff was very unfriendly. We... More

Spend 3 nights in January 2012 and have to say, I was not disappointed. Staff was really nice, room was ready early (noon), room was spacious, bathroom was only a bit small but not a big problem. Room was located on O'Farrell street, so a little street noise and garbage collection was early in the morning but I slept with... More

I spent one night at the hotel in late January this year and was very pleased. From my first contact with the doorman till checkout the hotel staff could not have been nicer. My room was small but very well apointed. My favorite were the sheets- crisp and white. It also has an outdoor pool for the two days a... More

We started our 11 week trip west, in San Francisco. The Handlery Hotel was a great choice. Good location minutes from the subway, the tram and buses, moments from Lois Diners, which are excellent, the hotel staff were helpful, the rooms quiet and comfortable, and the local Avis branch handy for picking up a car to take us on our...

We started our holiday here so was very well placed for early morning diners thanks to jet lag. Also great to get the early cable cars to Fishermans wharf. After trudging round San Fran it's great to go for a swim in the quiet pool surrounded by the hotel. Very little noise from the hustle and bustle of the city.... More

Living in the Central Valley, we take short trips to San Francisco as often as we can. And when we stay overnight, we often choose the Handlery! Cute, quirky little hotel. Immaculately clean, and such kind and friendly staff. And great prices considering they are RIGHT on Union Square. We'll stay there again and again... More

This hotel was fantastic for me and 2 friends only because of the location. We initially chose it because it reviews had said it had big rooms and the hotel offered to provide rooms for 3 adults (2 queen size beds and one extra bed). In fact they lied and when we arrived there were 2 queen sized beds and... More
