2 star Union Square Independent hotels in San Francisco, California

We were treated well throughout our stay, while we were in SF for the AvonWalk over the weekend. For a small rate increase, we were able to upgrade to a 2-bed room, which hadn't been available when we made the reservation. There was always someone at the desk, even when we left in the very early morning, and they were always helpful. They stored our luggage all day on the day we checked out and we felt confident in the security of our items. Our only complaint was some banging when someone rifled a dumpster in the middle of one night- otherwise, there was little noise.

I'm used to staying in hotels that are generally more modern and quite a bit pricy (for example, Westin hotel resorts, Hyatt, etc...). So I was not sure what to expect from a small hotel like this one. My significant other and I had a very pleasant experience, the room was lovely and comfortable despite the fact that it was smaller than a normal hotel room. But it was perfectly sized for 2 people. They serve breakfast on each floor every morning which is nice, and even though it's supposed to be over at 7 am, it stays outside in the hall for a good few hours. The lobby and receptionists were warm and welcoming. I loved the vintage, "antique" feel for the hotel and overall I had a great stay (3 nights).

The area was pretty ghetto but on the flip side it made the hotel feel life our litte safe haven. The staff is nice and the room was okay. The shower was dandy. Don't rely on the breakfast. It's just pastries in plastic wrappers and coffee. If you are a fancy pantsy don't go there. But if you're chill like us and don't need a lot to enjoy yourself well you're good.

We stayed for 3 nights in 801 at the top of the hotel. It's right next to Union Square & on the cable car route. Very good staff & our room was good. I think if you stayed on the lower floors it might be a bit noisy but it is the centre of the city! Overall very good.

I was in San Francisco for a convention and was searching for a hotel near the Hilton. I'm so happy that I found the Hotel Beresford. It was very close to the convention and was near the bus stops and cable car. The hotel had a very old San Francisco feel to it, which I loved. I am a big fan of hotels with character and this one oozes it. It does have some wear and tear in the rooms. ( wallpaper peeling, broken soap dish), but that is expected with an older hotel. Each morning the hotel provided a continental breakfast of cereal, muffins and croissants in the White Horse pub. The staff was also very helpful. I was on the 7th floor which was quiet, but I can tell that if you were close to the street or the pub you would get a lot of noise. My only complaint was that there is a cost for the airport shuttle but that isn't the hotels' fault.

convenient location but last block steep up hill clean quiet place, good continental breakfast

It was the same price as a hostel we stayed at. It was rated as a two star so we expected a dump but it was clean and the bed was great. Included continental breakfast too!

Great little room, the hotel wasnt noisy at all. There was a lot of cute art. This hotel is different and was a great experience! We had to share a bathroom on our floor which was always clean and never had a problem waiting to use it. Highly recommend.

Very sweet hotel in Chinatown-loved being in one of the hearts of the city!!

Defenitely perfect ubication. For low budget its great. Very clean. It was my second time staying in this hotel, and would also repeat it. The only bad thing: the noice at night. Lots of noice.
