We really enjoyed our stay, the room and the bathroom were very clean and smelled delightful. The staff were very friendly and polite. We loved the vintage feel of the hotel and felt very comfortable. We will be returning next spring to attend a San Francisco Giants game and we will be staying at the Chancellor Hotel!

Compact, well-equipped room half a block from Union Square and an easy walk to Chinatown and Nob Hill. Cable cars pass in front of the hotel. Very kind and dedicated staff, a bar, and a nice coffee/tea service throughout the day made this a friendly and fun place to stay!

We had a great experience at the Chancellor hotel! Booked the room last minute at a great price - staff was very nice, room was small but clean, bathroom was a good size, and love that they have a water refill station in the lobby. Would stay again!
