The Prescott Hotel is another of the outstanding Kimpton hotels. This hotel is convenient to Union Square and public transit, there are many nearby restaurant options. The staff just could not be more helpful and capable. The rooms are well appointed. One complaint I frequently have with hotels that have been established in older buildings is that the elevators tend... More

The Prescott is a charming boutique hotel which is in a great location close to Union Square. We booked a standard room which was very small and quite dated in its furnishings. There is a musty odour that comes out of the air conditioner so I would suggest just opening the window if you require ventilation !! The staff were... More

I was looking for a nice hotel for myself, my husband, and son. I was thrilled to find a two-room king suite at the Prescott for within my budget, and I was not disappointed. The rooms were sizable, the beds were comfortable, the location of the room made it very quiet, and the perks of being an InTouch member were... More

Perfect location for shopping, sights and restaurants. Good value for San Francisco. Got a deal for US$ 170 per night, including breakfast and Club Level benefits.

Understated charm and elegance, superb location. A warm individual charm compared to bigger hotels. Great staff and service and is always a relaxing place to stay. We always upgrade to club level, well worth it.

The only other theater district/Union Square hotel I have experience with is the Westin (stayed a few years ago via a past employer). The Prescott is a small, but inviting feeling hotel.
