Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I was very disappointed with my recent experience at this hotel. Despite booking a great rate, I was unable to cancel my reservation or have the charge reduced. I had hoped the hotel would be willing to compromise or accommodate my request, but they refused. This lack of flexibility left me feeling frustrated, especially given the location of the hotel in a less desirable area of San Francisco. While I understand businesses need to protect revenue, the rigid policies and unwillingness to work with guests make it difficult to recommend this property.

The staff at Hotel Emblem were lovely and welcoming. The room itself was a good size and kept nice and clean. There is a list of cool quirky amenities that you can request (including a typewriter for your room!). It's ideally located a stones throw from Union Square, and has good connections to the Muni transport system. The coffee shop connected to the lobby does some great barista-crafted drinks, and staff here were also lovely despite frequently being busy first thing in the morning. The only slight negative was that there was a strange smell in the room when I arrived; however one of the quirky amenities on the list was an essential oil diffuser which cleared that right up! Would absolutely recommend staying here for a short break in SF.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I had to switch rooms, because of a tv issue. The second room wasn’t terrible. It looked like the pictures. The room was a bit more worn than I was expecting. But nonetheless cozy. The bar was very modern and comfortable! The cafe was absolutely beautiful and the lobby was quite spectacular. Hopefully, some renovations for the rooms are underway. I would definitely recommend and go back.

The room was clean and the decor was really cool. I love the fact that it had a sound machine to drown out the street noise. The location is also excellent, walking distance to a lot of activities.
