This hotel is a real quandary - some aspects of it are great and some are really ordinary. It is in a great location and our room was just like the pictures on their web site. It's an older hotel and a bit of a maze to walk through but really charming in many ways. Our room faced onto O'Farrell... More

This hotel does live up to the pictures posted on its website. That alone speaks to their integrity, and their service is excellent. I enjoyed my stay. The hotel is wonderfully well located near Union Square with lots of restaurants to choose from and easy distance to the Bart and the cable car. The room was very clean, the beds... More

Good hotel, perfect location, fantastic city. A bit noisy naiberhood, but this is a living city, so that is just charming. Hopefully we'll be back in this fantastic city once, and then this is the hotel.

The number one selling point for Villa Florence is its location - just half a block from Union Square in one direction and a block away from public transportation in the other direction (BART, Muni and the Cable Car turnaround) - making it incredibly easy to get around the city and to/from SFO or OAK airports. The neighborhood felt safe... More

The highs...location and staff. The guys over at bell desk and valet were AWESOME! Housekeeping was fast and the rooms were clean. Negative...even on the 6th floor with the windows closed, the street noise was ridiculous! Now I have 3 kids and normally can sleep through anything, but not here. Thankfully, I had some earplugs with me. There was a... More

Villa Florence is the best place to stay if you want to be located near Union Square in San Francisco in an elegant small hotel with terrific service. Rooms are small, but perfectly adequate for two people and the main room and bathrooms are exceptionally well appointed. Rooms facing the front on lower levels can be noisy with street traffic,...

Villa Flo really is as lovely as everyone says (great beds, lovely bathrooms, charming decor, old-SF vibe and a great price, smaller 'cosy' room sizes). But if you're as picky as me, and work your butt off when you're at a convention and have had a taste of St. Regis, Fairmont and other upscale hotels (and generally been spoiled...), then... More

"The Flo" could not be located in a better place next to Union Square, transit, food, shopping, people, cable car, ..... Lefty O'douls. The hotel is in an old building that has creaky floors, old wood windows, cozy elevators and loads of charm. With the old building comes updated bathrooms, very comfortable beds, great flat screens and desks you can... More

Just near the Union Square Park, this hotel is great. Clean rooms, friendly staff and you step right out to the cable car line. The bar is decent enough and its pastries are housemade and delicious ( I got free breakfast coupons with my room stay which are redeemable here). Haven't yet had a chance to try out the Kuleto's...
