Hotel Reviews Larkspur Hotel Union Square

Hotel is in ideal location for visting the key sights of the city, shopping and riding the tram. Only issue would be with noise level if you have a room next to street - dust carts start early!

The hotel is in an excellent area, just down the street there were cable cars, shoppping street is right there, metro station is about 4 blocks away. Service was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were furnished in the old style, very neatly and comfortably. We had no view from the window because there was a wall with flowers but didn't mind, it kept the noise from outside away. Bathroom was small but for a couple of nights it was no hassle, we took turns ;o). The most pleasant surprise was that the hotel added breakfast without rising the prices. Also the staff was willing to store our luggage in the hotel after check out until the evening. We were very happy with our choice of this hotel and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Excellent bargain for San Francisco. Centrally located (2 blocks from Union square), the Lakspur is in fact an hotel from the beginning of the 20th century, enterely renovated. The rooms are not very big but very well furnished and equiped (flat screen TV and free internet) and super clean. Employees are very nice. The only thing is that the hotel is at one block from Powell street where the cable cars go up and down, which is quite noisy, but this is San Francisco and you'll get used to it (they don't work during nightime). I did not have the time to test the gym which is not in the building but apparently across the street.

Good location, convenient though room is a bit small. I like the cosiness of the lobby. I will stay there again if I do go to SFO.

Rooms are a bit small for american standards, but perfect if you plan on spend most of the day outside. Apart from that, my rooms was clean, relatively quiet (for being so close to Union Square) and with free wifi.

Public areas small but well decorated. Loved the Hallowe'en display! Evening wine reception was a very relaxed and pleasant event. Excellent location just a block and a bit from Union Square and just round the corner from National/Alamo car hire. Corridors and our room rather shabby but renovation was taking place. I would stay here again as it felt 'right'.

This was my first stay at the Cartwright. We wanted something close to China Town and this was perfect. Easy walking distance from Bart and the Cable Cars. Room was a little small but comfortable. The bathroom was very small but everything we needed was provided. The staff was very courtious and knowledgeable of the area. We had a wonderful weekend in a resonably priced hotel.
