The hotel we had tried to book was full so the Tripadvisor person recommended the Phoenix Hotel. It's not a 4 star hotel and has a more of a motel feel but it surprised us. We have two boys, 9 and 12 and they swam in the outdoor heated pool several times during our 2 day stay. We had three... More

Stayed over holiday weekend, so my experience may not be typical (hotel was pretty empty). some really strong points: parking is free, motor lodge style (this is a revamped 50's motor court hotel) nice big rooms secure entry gated with key access, nice pool area and outdoor lounging spots if SF weather ever permits, that is... good central spot to...

yes this place takes me back a bit. this gem in the beginning of the tenderloin is a wonderful place to unwind and still be close, even IN the action. I agree with most of the positive comments posted here. I had the Headliner Suite for almost a week, and the only issue I had was the poor lighting in... More

Stayed at the Phoenix for my partners 50th Birthday. The response from the hotel was amazing! Great room, great food (and value): Chambers is stylish and has good atmosphere. Yes we were probably the oldest people in Chambers on the Saturday night, but WE had the best table reserved for us by the fabulous staff!!! And as we had been... More

We had a wonderful time staying here in October. Staff were extremely helpful, loved the location as it was a bit different. Lovely atmosphere, decor of rooms unusual. Very relaxing time. More

This place was amazing! Two thank you cards from the front desk staff were waiting for our arrival, one at the front desk and one inside the room, very nice. I think my happiest moment was noticing the recycle bin inside the room, how great! The pool was pretty and heated (didn't swim but I took note it was heated).... More

A great place to stay in San Francisco. Reasonable rates. Friendly Staff. My husband and I stayed a superior king room. We loved the vibe. It's not the newest or most modern of the Joie de Vie choices, but the vibe is way cool and we loved hanging out in the courtyard by the pool. It has been remodeled and... More

Really reasonable and close to lots of things. The rooms were bigger than expected, well-appointed and the staff was fab and friendly and just the right amount of arty. The breakfast part was also better than expected. I thought it'd be a lot noisier, but except for some folks rolling their carriers through at 1am on Saturday, it was pretty... More

Alas, my boyfriend and I made our journey to San Fran! The Phoenix was an ideal fit for our 2 night stay. The ambiance was hip, modern, and very indie rock so if you're into the hipster or bohemian scene then the Phoenix is for you. The bright modern decor, colorful swimming pool, and eclectic courtyard will energize your stay... More
