Top Cable Car Museum Hotel Reviews

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Misty was great! And the hotel is located in a great area."

InterContinental Mark Hopkins by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was a great location with 2 cable car stops right by hotel. Complimentary coffee in the morning was very good. The Mark bar at top of hotel had beautiful views and overpriced drinks. We had dinner at China Live and it’s the best I’ve ever had anywhere."

Parc 55 San Francisco - A Hilton Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was lovely. The restaurant was expensive $36 for breakfast buffet. Could not beat the valet service. They were awesome. The room was nice. The only problem I saw was the fact that they did not have thick curtains on the window. It was only sheers across the middle part of the window."

FOUND Hotel Carlton, Nob Hill

10/10 Excellent

"Overall, 9 out of 10 for the overall stay and experience with found hotel Carlton. Property was adjacent to everything that I was doing in the city, outside streets were decently kept, did not feel unsafe or threatened at any time. Hotel lobby and hotel is being monitored 24/7 by hotel, staff, and after hours by a security guard, which was a nice added touch to see. Rooms were very comfortable, showers were awesome, bathrooms were clean, bed was comfortable, noise level was not bad, the only thing you can hear depending on how good you hear is other room doors, opening and closing. Overall, I will definitely stay with this hotel again when I’m in town, super easy and affordable and a great stay!"
