uan escala San Francisco
Pros:

la ubicacion buena, la habitacion no muy grande pero esta bien, algo ruidosa y fria, la cama muy alta, y yo ni mi marido somos chicos, nos costaba sentarnos, los ultimos 3 dias estuvo con un problema el elevador fue dificil subir 6 pisos, nos dieron una pequeña devolucion, el desayuno es solo un Cafe con panes dulces.

Cons:

Subir 6 pisos a pie, y mas con mi marido que estaba con baja movilidad. Y cuando uno anda de turismo llega cansado, esos 6 pisos eran eternos, por suerte no estaba en el noveno. Yo selecciono hoteles con desayuno, y este no decia que era solo un cafe con masas dulces.

Great staff and helpful
Pros:

Place was good but the people are better. Flight was cancelled and we had to stay last second. Jimmy checked us in at night and offered to have extended check out the next day, as our new flight was late at night. In the morning, Luis was kind enough to extend it longer. Wonderful staff and we will definitely return. Room accommodations were just fine. Thank you.

Don't stay here
Pros:

There were spiders, mold and the view I had when I looked out my window was a wall with a bunch of bullet holes. I did not feel safe; I was there for work and was not able to move to a different room or hotel.

Best day truly couldn’t have done any better!!
Pros:

I’ve spent many nights in hotels around the world, and my recent stay at King George Hotel truly stood out. The staff were exceptional—consistently attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. The food was outstanding, and every interaction reflected a high standard of hospitality. With over 100 hotel nights a year, I don’t say this lightly: this was an amazing experience. I’ll absolutely be back soon. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Historic Hotel adjacent to the Hilton Conference Center
Pros:

I will begin by saying that I would happily stay at the King George Hotel again. I would especially recommend the hotel to people attending a conference at the Union Square Hilton Conference Center. The location is both fortunate and unfortunate. It is in the edge of the Tenderloin District, so wandering a block in the wrong direction can be unpleasant; one encounters people who are behaving as if they have severe mental problems or are taking dangerous drugs. Walking toward the Embarcadero or Fisherman's Wharf takes one through beautiful San Francisco neighborhoods. And the Convention Center is next door. I made use of the lobby in the King George Hotel to discuss projects with colleagues. The people that I met with volunteered that they enjoyed meeting there and that the space was very pleasant. The hotel staff was very considerate while we met. The staff overall were extremely pleasant and helpful. I didn't take note of names, but the gentleman and ladies who are at the front desk in the evenings were especially helpful. The hotel requires some cosmetic repairs. The elevators walls are worn and some of the buttons don't light when pressed. It is used for both guests and maintenance. I stayed in a twin room that was small. I was provided with a coffee maker and a small refrigerator when I asked. The hotel was constructed in 1914 and has a nice historic feel. I am sure that I enjoyed staying there more than I would have enjoyed staying at the conference hotel, which is just like all conference hotels.

Terrific bargain close to theatres with great staff.
Pros:

The location of the Jing George couldn't be better for theatre at ACT. It’s also very close to Union Square. The staff members are top notch: warm, gracious , and helpful. Amazingly good price for downtown San Francisco. Yes, small room but comfortable. Good breakfast of pastries although lacking juice.

King George Hotel Is A Great Value!
Pros:

Every time we visit San Francisco, we stay at the King George Hotel near Union Square. The staff are friendly and welcoming and readily assist with providing maps, recommendations, calling cabs and tending to any special needs. The lobby is decorated in a British theme and rooms are clean and beds comfortable. The Hotel is several blocks away from union square and there are many good restaurants, shops within walking distance. We’ll come here again.

Nice Staff & Great Location, But Serious Noise Problems
Pros:

Stayed here for quick overnight for work as my usual picks were either sold out or insanely expensive due to a conference. The hotel is in a fine location, a little sketchy if you wander in the direction of O'Farrell, but it's very walkable to Union Square and the FiDi which is what I needed. I checked in later and the staff was extremely nice and friendly. The lobby, although small, seemed clean, well-maintained and like it had a few amenities.

My the room was small and dimly lit, with a window facing another building and a courtyard. Because of this, it was incredibly noisy in my room, with sounds reverberating upwards anytime anyone was in the courtyard. The curtains didn't close completely and the building across the way had its lights on all night, so the room didn't get completely dark. The bathroom had a lot of wear and tear, and was freezing due to the way the window was set up. My biggest issue was the radiator, which literally banged and made noise ALL NIGHT long, to the point where it severely affected my sleep. I tried turning off the knob but that didn't seem to work, so I spent the night listening to hissing and banging, being woken up every hour or so. Without this issue, the hotel would have been a 3 star stay for me particularly because of the lovely staff, but I would never stay here again knowing what I know about the noise.
