We had a fantastic stay at Oaktown Roost. Our hallway king room was very spacious, very comfortable, and spotless. The rooftop/courtyard between rooms was a thoughtful touch—it added privacy and made for a perfect spot to enjoy a peaceful morning coffee. Check-in and check-out were seamless, and they had a gated parking lot. The location was ideal—close to bart and the Fox Theater. It was a great experience all around. Would definitely return.

Their guest service is a 20/10. I called earlier in the week to ask about arriving early and parking. They were gracious and accommodating, saying we could check into our room if it was ready when we arrived. On arrival, the doorman (shamefully I didn’t get his name) was welcoming, friendly and efficient. I had injured my knee a couple of days earlier and was on crutches and he did everything he could to help me. At the front desk, Jared and Dominique were warm, welcoming, professional and...

10/10 Excellent

My stay was fantastic. The only negative thing I experienced was that they removed the US flag from its place of honor at the peak of their hotel in order to fly a pride flag in its place. As a veteran whos friends gave their lives for the US and whos coffins were draped with that flag, this was intolerable. There were plenty other places they could and did fly the pride flag. It should never fly in lieu of the Stars and Stripes.

Chase

A spacious lobby with large windows, a seating area with a sofa and chairs, and a counter with a coffee station.

LUMA Hotel San Francisco

Downtown San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

Exceptional hotel. Primarily, the staff was professional and courteous with personality. Ricky was outstanding at check-in, Giselle was enjoyable at the wine bar, and Kevin was kind at check-out. The room was quiet and very well designed. Little details in the design were smart and made it super comfortable. Love the blackout shades and the shade in the “window” of the bathroom. Nice to have a foot bar in the shower. There were no plastic bags in the garbages. Loved the floor material. Super...
