“Great place to stay for events and the Moscone Center”

We arrived at the hotel and were greeted like we VIP's. The doors were always opened for us as we approached the entrance from either inside or outside. The front desk staff always had friendly words for us as we passed and were very helpful when we asked for directions or suggestions for meals and other destinations. Our room was larger then expected, very clean and comfortable.

“Great boutique hotel close to Union Square shopping, convenient to therest of the City”

Great location, easy to get around. Close to Market Street and Union Square. Walk to Chinatown and easy cab or bus to Castro, etc. Nice room, nicely decorated, including common areas, etc. Helpful and friendly hotel staff. Very responsive when i needed little things, like a vase for some flowers or when the cable went on the fritz. In both instances they were there "now" with what I needed.

“Great Hotel for moderate price”

The palomar was located just a few steps from the BART station on Market Street, a short walk to Union Square, the Powell Street Streetcar and a couple of blocks from the Moscone Center where my conference was. The hotel was clean, comfortable and well appointed. I would stay there again.

“Absolutely the best!!”

Very pleased with everything. The room, the service, any questions, Lauren even gave me her number if I had difficulty getting in touch with my family in the Bay Area, which was the reason I was in the area. I can't say say enough about how great everyone was!!

“Home away from home”

I've stayed at the Palomar several times and have never been disappointed. The staff are unfailingly courteous, rooms well-appointed and comfortable. If only they'd add premium cable channels to their offerings it'd be perfect!

“Perfect location”

The hotel is a 1/2 block from the BART. You can get from the airport to the hotel in about 20-25 minutes for $5.15. Much better than a cab. Also, the cable cars are 1/2 block away. You can take the cable car to Fisherman's Wharf and many other attractions. No need to rent a car or take a cab.

“A Great Location”

We stayed at Hotel Palomar for 3 nights during the San Francisco portion of our trip. It was very convenient to the Powell Street BART station (just a little over a block away), cable cars, museums, etc. This is a very crowded area and not sure that I would personally choose this again, but if you want convenience, this hotel can't be beat. Maverick the Hospital Dog was at the doggie spa during our stay, so we did not get to meet him. We got a great last-minute deal on Expedia, well below other hotels in the area. The room itself was small, but nice.

“Small Luxurious Hotel”

The hotel is centrally located in Downtown and it's in a great location. The hotel is small and has a tiny lobby area but it's really personal and beautifully designed.
