Handlery Union Square Hotel

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Of the 7 properties I’ve been to in San Francisco, this is one with the best value. (This was my 2nd stay and I will return to the Handlery in December.) I stayed in a room that used to be the motor inn. I was overlooking the pool, with my own balcony. Because there are buildings that surround this part of the hotel, it’s very quiet, which I really appreciate."
