Great SF hotel
We have stayed here a couple times and have always had a great experience. The heated pool was a highlight (even in March lol for my kiddos) clean room and nice staff. Basic visit for one night stay but we will be back. Nice proximity to union square restaurants.

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.

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.

5 stars!
All everyone told me about staying in SF is how loud any hotel I stay in is going to be. Well I was a bit nervous but this place blew me away, it was a 10 out of 10 on the quiet scale. You couldn’t hear any street noise or noise from other guests for that matter. Check in was a breeze and the staff was very friendly. Room was way larger than I expected too and they actually had water pressure in the shower. I would absolutley stay here again!

Good value
Aging hotel in good nick, great value. Amazing location in the middle of action around Union Square and walking distance to financial district and moscone center. Two blocks away from the homeless chaos of the tenderloin, streets are relatively clean and safe.

Great location, polite service, and spacious rooms
Fantastic stay at Handlery Union Square, I have stayed at this hotel three other times and I receive consistent, great service, always polite, accommodating, and attentive service. The rooms are spacious some have floor to ceiling windows that overlook the city. Beds are comfortable, modern decor, and fast elevators. The location is prime and safe with a lot of restaurant options you can walk to and shopping. Overall, I would highly recommend and will be back with my family.
