The York Hotel is a ideal place to stay if you are looking for something cheap and cheerful in San Francisco. It's about 10 mins walk from Union Square and very convienient for riding the trams. It does not have any parking but they have a deal with a local car park. If you take advantage of the valet parking... more

The staff were friendly and attentive. The hotel is scheduled for an update this fall. Currently, the rooms were tired and dark. The walls and ceilings had many scars. Our room had no a/c and the air circulation was poor. The weather was hot, so the room was uncomfortably warm. The room was cleaned well, but the furniture and carpet... more

One of the big draws was that the hotel amenties included a continental breakfast. That did not happen and was very disappointing. I put in a review to the hotel staff about the breakfast. They agreed the hotel should put in the breakfast. The hotel stopped the breakfast but still advertise on-line about a continental breakfast. The room was just... more

Stayed in York Hotel for 4 nights. All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, however ... the hotel needs to be completely renovated. The photos on the website must be from a long time ago. The walls were painted greys and blues ... cold and depressing. The bedrooms were dark and the bathroom teeny tiny, though they were clean.... more

The York Hotel is a wonderfully charming property, that is without a doubt highly underrated and great for the value. I booked my room via Expedia for $89, which included a free breakfast (didn't take advantage of that so I can't comment) as well as free Wifi. The York Hotel is about to begin a huge transformation into the Hotel... more

I got a $69 rate here and had to pay a $25 cancellation fee to shameful Orbitz to get out of the over-priced ambiance-lacking hotel I had pre-booked. If you like old hotels, get there now because they're about to really remodel it. The Hitchcock film Vertigo was filmed in part there. Breakfast was fine. You are close to Union... more

This hotel is decent, but certainly not nice. I was in SF for a weekend in January and got a travelzoo special for $59 a night, which is pretty dang cheap for San Francisco. If you're just looking for a place to sleep that is close enough to walk to most of the sights downtown - this place does the... more

We had a great stay at The York. Very spacious accomodations and helpful staff. The bed was more comfortable than my own. It has a real charm about it and a movie history! I hear it is to undergo some exciting renovations including a new restaurant. Can't wait to see it on my next visit. The neighborhood is also undergoing... more

A very decent facility in a "sketchy" Downtown location. Attractive rates. We arrived very late, only to find that their parking garage was closed for the night. On-street parking is nonexistent !! Finally (at 1:30A.M.) the night clerk found a garage that would accommodate. Plan ahead. more
