Great place to stay in San Fran, staff were really friendly and helpful, made reservations for us for dinner and then checked later for us to see if it was BYO. The room was small, breakfast was extremely basic, but the sheets and towels were great quality and we had everything we needed. more

My husband and I stayed for 5 nights at the beginning of a 5 week trip. We found the hotel just perfect for location. We were able to catch the BART from the airport and have a short walk to the hotel. The room was perfectly sized and very clean and comfortable. A perfect place for exploring the city. All... more

My boyfriend and I just got back from San Francisco and totally enjoyed our stay at the Stratford on the Square! I like 5 star hotels, he likes hostels...and our compromise on this hotel made us both pretty happy. The location right on Powell is fantastic, really made us feel like we were in the thick of things with the... more

Right in the center of town and very handy to the train station etc. Yes it has the worlds slowest lift but got fit using the stairs. Very tidy room and hotel. Free Breakfast was basic but was a good start for the day. Would recommend that you try not to get a room facing the street as the trams... more

Small rooms, slowest elevator in the world, but imaculate, friendly, great location, and a definate bargain in one of the most expensive cities in the U.S. My husband and I, both in our late 50's, were charmed by the friendliness of the staff. We never had to call for anything, so I can't comment on how they resolve issues. There... more

I've stayed in this hotel several times in the past. This time, I arrived in mid-June when the weather (Saturday-Sunday) was very atypical of San Francisco ... it was hot and nearly in the 90-degree Farenheit scale! So I limited my time outdoors and would stay in my room (queen room on the 7th floor where I had the view... more

Stayed here in May 2010 for 4 nights at the start of my US holiday. Got it for a great price - 1 standard room. It is in a great location near Union Square - just don't get a room at the front of the building (noisy! with the cable car right outside). The room was small, but perfectly fine... more

We stayed with our youth choir of 27 persons for 5 nights at the Stratford. The staff was very helpful & courteous. Rooms are small but were clean. Great location near BART, Muni, Cable Cars and all other public transportation. Lots of affordable places to eat in the area. The breakfast provided was small but acceptable. The only small drawback... more

Stayed here for just two nights as part of a road trip, room was quite small but adequate for what we wanted. I think it's only a two star but the price was low and the room was very clean (and I am very fussy!), staff were friendly and the location was slap bang in the centre of where we... more
