Solid Spot near Union Square

The Handlery is a solid stopover on Union Square. This time I stayed in the old section, just fine for the value, clean and unpretentious. The only downside was a droning machine running all night outside below, not crazy loud but could be disturbing for some.

This was my first time staying in San Francisco. For a large city, I felt so safe in the area of this hotel. The hotel was quiet, room was huge. I am recommending this hotel to all of my friends and this will be the only San Francisco hotel I will use when traveling there. Excellent stay!!

Downtown SF is usually loud, but this hotel has a relaxing vibe. I really appreciate the gym, and it's proximity to many locations.

We chose this hotel for location and price. It's super convenient to get anywhere in SF if you're using public transportation, which is recommended because driving sucks and parking is $$$! The rooms are dated and have a distinct smell, so we bought a scented candle at a farmers market and just left it open (but no open flame). That seemed to make things better! Otherwise the value was good for SF, the staff was friendly, and the hotel was quiet. There's the usual homeless problem, which is endemic to SF, but we never felt unsafe, even when we were out after sunset.

Our favorite hotel in San Francisco.

We discovered the Handlery Union Square several years ago and now always stay there when we are in San Francisco. It is quiet, conveniently located for transportation and in the "middle" of the city.
