Hotels near 22nd St. Station, San Francisco

Hi, the hotel is very clean and hosts very friendly. Unfortunately the neighborhood is not good at all, but this hotel seems like an oasis in the block. I was offered an upgrade from a shared bathroom to a room with private bathroom.

Beautiful hotel in good location for us. Had appetizers and wine in the bar area. Servers were wonderful, friendly and checked back often. Sara at the front desk conducted the nicest check-in experience we can recall. Our king room on the 12th floor was a bit small. Surprised that in California the in-room coffee involved so much wasted cardboard and paper just to get a bit of sugar. Small complaint, though.

Location of the hotel is good. As told, left side of the hotel is more safe than the right side as there are not many homeless people on the left side. The hotel provides daily cleaning and refills bath amenities automatically. The air conditioning is quite cool but can be adjusted, nevertheless, the blanket is not thick enough which slightly affected sleeping quality.

We stayed in the Barnes for four nights in June 2023. Firstly, the hotel is really well located, right by Union Square with all its transport links and 20-30 minute walk away from the Embarcadero and Oracle Stadium. The room was clean and cleaned daily, staff were all very friendly, and it has a great gym (we stayed at the Galleria Park during our last stay in SF which was more expensive and the gym wasn’t fantastic). The bathroom was a little on the small side but the room was a decent size with a comfortable (but slightly on the softer side) bed, fridge, huge TV, coffee making facilities and a table with two bar stools. The hotel is good for the price you pay. We didn’t spend huge amounts of time in the room as we were busy sightseeing and it was perfect for what we needed. As other reviewers have pointed out, some parts of it are being renovated but we were not impacted by any noise so we had no complaints on that side. I note one other review mentioned noise from the road, we did experience that but it didn’t bother us.

We chose this hotel because of the location for getting to the trolley, a Hop-on Hop-off tour stop, the local bus system, and the nearby BART system. For this it did not disappoint. The price is reasonable, and the hotel was very clean, and the staff was very friendly. From this, I digress. The noise level during the nights, was that a very loud level. All from external. Sirens, music, loud cars and trucks going by, garbage trucks in the middle of the night, quite a bit of yelling, and the like. Normal ear plugs did not help. If you stay here, you will need some heavy duty ear plugs. We get up earlier and the hotel lobby coffee was not ready ever before 7:00 a.m. there is coffee in the room, however if you need real creamer, you'll be out of luck until 7:00 approximately. Not a terrible review, just want people to be aware.

We stayed for a week in September. Lovely hotel with friendly attentive staff. Check in was smooth. We had our luggage taken to our room as our room was up some steps and past the swimming pool before reaching the elevator to our room. While waiting for our luggage I looked around the room and noticed that there was no kettle - only the base of a coffee machine - and no hairdryer. When I told the gentleman who bought our luggage about the missing items they were both replaced within 10 minutes. Our room was spacious and I loved the dressing/vanity area outside the bathroom. We were fortunate enough to have a balcony overlooking O'Farrell Street, loved sitting having my morning tea or evening G&T people watching! There is no restaurant but that didn't bother us. You get a discount voucher for breakfast at a diner around the corner but it gets extremely busy. We ate there once at 7am when it was quite. Some mornings we got cereal from Walgreens around the corner and ate in Union Square. We got the Bart from the airport to Powell St station . The Handlery is a short walk from this station. Also, the old trolley bus terminus is near the Powell St station too which takes you to Pier 39 area. Market Street is also close by for buses and tram/trolley buses (the newer ones) and walk down to the end of Market Street to reach Embarcadero and the Ferry Building. Loved our stay in this hotel.

After experiencing the epidemic, Union Square has changed a lot now. Many nearby shops have closed and it still has not returned to normal. But returning to the Grand Hyatt is still the same as before, it feels very much like home and feels 100% safe!

Arrived early in the morning and found out the room was not ready. The front desk checked me in first and kept my luggage while I roam around. Stayed on the 18th floor. Allowed me to extend as I had a late evening flight. The bell hop was very helpful to keep my luggage after I checked out and went around to roam before coming back to pick up my luggage and depart for my late evening flight. Quiet hotel.

Stayed here for 2 nights and was pleasantly surprised. Prices are quite affordable considering it's in San Francisco. The location was great. I booked this hotel in particular primarily because of its rather close proximity to the BART station. It is indeed only a 10-minute walk from Montgomery station, although if you're arriving from the airport be prepared to drag your bags uphill. The hotel is smack dab in the middle of Chinatown in a rather busy area. I never felt unsafe here, whether evening or early morning, as there are always people milling about minding their own business. If you like walking, you can journey to Fisherman's Wharf within 30 minutes on foot, which is what I did. You can also walk in the opposite direction toward Westfield and Target if you like to shop. There are several bus stops and tram lines nearby. As for the room, it was small but didn't feel cramped. There's no air-conditioning but it was rather chilly in July so I had no issues with heat. No problems with the shower either. Checking in and out were a breeze. I was even able to order food through GrubHub (because most restaurants in that area close at 8 pm even on weekends, which I found out the hard way!) I suppose my only complaint would be that you can definitely hear your neighbors at all times. I could hear someone stomping on the floor above, and sometimes I'd get noise from the rooms adjacent to mine. I was able to sleep just fine, though, as the bed was really comfortable. I'd changed my hotel to this one at the last minute and I'm glad I did. Apart from the occasional noise, I had a lovely stay.

I want to share my recent experience at this hotel, which I regretfully cannot recommend. The hotel has an attractive location but is marred by a lack of basic amenities and poor customer service. During our six-night stay, we discovered on the second morning that there was no hot water. We informed the receptionist, Andy, but were met with a dismissive and rude attitude. We were informed that there would be no hot water for the rest of the day, and this lack of basic amenities was for a total of three days of the six days of our stay. Please note that according to California Civil Code §1940.2, it is the responsibility of the hotel to provide and maintain hot and cold running water for guests. To make matters worse, when we requested to check out early due to this issue, we were offered no refunds as our stay was prepaid on expedia. Expedia told us that the property was to decide while the property said it was expedia.. As I am a hotelier myself, I know it is the hotel’s call in the end. We were offered a shower facility in a separate building which was very inconvenient as we had to walk out of our building and take elevators to get there.. This was not a suitable alternative to the basic amenity that we had paid for. To add insult to injury, at time of check out, Andy offered us only $80 as a refund on a reservation worth over $1500, what a humiliating act, we could not believe it! Better not to offer anything, because really it is a shame to offer this to people.. We were one of the many customers to complain, and we saw that the receptionists had no sympathy towards anyone.. Yes, all businesses are there to make money, but not like this. What they did is close to stealing from someone! I cannot recommend this hotel to other travelers, and I will continue to write on other platforms to warn people..
