Hotel Adagio, Autograph Collection

By far the worst Marriott hotel I’ve been to. For $ 700 a night I would expect hookers or something. The bed is the most uncomfortable bed also; which is why I stay at Marriott. My view overlooks their AC systems. Minus a cool bathroom mirrors and stone bathroom counter top, this place is a dump.

Arrived to hotel valet service told us it was $ 50 per night but we looked like «normal people» so suggested if we wanted to save money go elsewhere. Ummm hahaha I was a little offended but I appreciated his honesty and his offer to help us save some money… We drove 7 hours to get there, perhaps that is why we looked like «normal people» haha…
Anyway we got our room and the «basic» room they gave us was in 4^th or 6^th floor can’t remember. I walked in and immediately told my husband to call the front desk and change rooms. It was tiny, awkward furniture arrangement and the noise… Oh my Gosh! The noise of the elevator. Our room was right next to it!
They transferred us to room 1108 and good grief not amazing but better than the first room. Although they could only offer us a room with two double beds. Whatever. I didn’t feel well and did not want to deal with it.
The room smelled. It smelled like what you imagine an old abandoned building to smell.
The bathroom was gross. The tub seemed to be peeling and there was some rust near the drain. And OMG the smell that came from the sink. It was disgusting!!! It smelled like old sewer water. My husband said it was because they need to clean/​drain the pipes. But seriously I do not expect the sink to smell this bad at a Marriott hotel. It was gross. And I endured it for 5 days. Bleh.
I don’t understand why people say the beds are comfortable. I slept on top
Of the comforter (I bring my own sheets) and it was still extremely hard and uncomfortable.
Now, if your guests are here for leisure in a tourist city perhaps hold off on the knocking of each room by the housekeeping staff so early in the am. ESPECIALLY (!!!) when the walls are soooo thin. Seriously! Why are they yelling in the hallway? Not everyone is awake! Not everyone wants to be up this early! We had our «do not disturb sign» so of course they didn’t knock on our door. But still! Ugh.
The view. The glorious view to a parking lot and another building where I could see people doing their dishes and cooking… Awkward. But the cake is taken by watching sketchy people shooting up in that parking lot next to the hotel. Where they valet your car.
Really Marriott? I expect so much more.
The staff was kind. But the hero of this trip is Christopher the bartender. He was so fun and friendly and made amazing drinks. Cheers to Chris! Treat him well, he gets so much crap from guests.
I’m back home in my heavenly bed. And I could not be happier or more grateful.

I stayed at this hotel for 5 nights. It’s a cute boutique hotel located a few blocks from Union Square. The room was a nice size, modern and clean. I really appreciated the 24 hour coffee and tea service, as well as the citrus infused iced water. Because I am a Marriott Rewards member, the wifi was complimentary for me. The service was very good and when I inquired about the business center in order to print my boarding pass, the attendant at the front desk offered to print it for me. It was an enjoyable stay and I would definitely come back again on my next visit.

Stayed here for 3 nights on a business trip. The hotel is in the Tenderloin which is a really funky and eclectic neighborhood with a lot of homeless people wandering about. Being from Chicago, it wasn’t all that scary or weird to us, but the locals who heard we were staying there were like «That part of town is a little sketchy, be careful.» That aside, there are lots of great little restaurants and bars nearby. If you’re anything like me and enjoy good bourbon cocktails, you simply must try Burritt Room, Rye, Swig, and Bourbon & Branch. Le Colonial is right behind the hotel, and there is an excellent little barber shop across the street that gets ridiculously high ratings.
While the hotel staff was always friendly and the building had a lot of nice amenities like free coffee in the morning, a wine tasting reception in the lobby, and fresh ice water infused with lemon, there were a few setbacks for me that were annoying. First of all, the hotel WiFi login claimed to have «Complimentary Internet Service» but then you click the box and it says «$ 9.95» which is the exact opposite of the word «complimentary.» I added a screen grab to this review to show this in action.
My room was #1107. I’m not entirely sure what happened in there before I arrived, but it smelled strongly of ammonia like the odor of cat urine and like somebody had tried unsuccessfully to get it out with lots of bleach. There was also a plastic bag taped over the smoke detector (no idea why, but probably to protect it from the bleach fumes). Normally, I would have demanded another room, but I was exhausted and didn’t have the energy to be a jerk about it. Still, it was frustrating whenever I walked into the room and got hit with that smell.
One night, my colleagues and I ordered a round of drinks from the bartender who did not write anything down, but kept track of our orders in his head. Unfortunately, 2 out of the 4 cocktails we ordered were wrong. I asked for an old fashioned, but got a Manhattan instead. My colleague ordered a Whiskey & ginger ale, but got a glass of straight-​up whiskey with no ginger ale.
I like the neighborhood enough to consider staying here again. Looking back, I just wish I had spoken up about my issues. I’m sure they would have gladly accommodated my request for another room.

Probably one of my favorite hotels. It’s a boutique type of hotel aka it’s been renovated. At first I was really hesitant to stay at Adiago. I was afraid that it was just a façade and it was going to be horrible. The staff is amazing. They are the most helpful people ever!
It helps that you tell them what you want and they deliver! We said no elevators next to the room and we got what we wanted. When we saw the view from which we had we immediately called the front desk. Next door is another building with apartments? For some reason we were looking into someones room and we really didn’t want that. Thankfully they moved us quickly and got into a better room!
The Gold members free breakfast was pretty good. We also enjoyed the location. It was close to a Walgreens and a Starbucks. The homeless population is a thing in downtown San Francisco. The hotel makes sure that you are taken care of. I hope you enjoy your stay at Adiago!

This is my second experience with Marriott’s Autograph selection, and now I have to ask, what’s the point? The strategy seems to be to buy up 2^nd or 3^rd rate properties, perform minimal repairs and upgrades, and then charge near premium rates. I am a huge fan of Marriott, but this doesn’t work for me. As for this property, I was very disappointed. I was not able to make the heat or ac work. The wifi was slow, unreliable, and expensive. This after asking for help. It will cost you $ 7 to print one page in the business center. On the upside, the rooms are quiet, and the views are nice. But for the money, go to a real Marriott… There are plenty nearby.

NPS = 8
Nice hotel with very hospitable service.
Got to the hotel after a long day of traveling and it was nice to see a smiling face behind the counter. Sometimes that is all you need, you know?
I was a little ticked off that my internet wasn’t working as promised when I checked in, but that problem was quickly resolved with one phone call.
The hotel is located on Union Square and it is close to most things enjoyable.
I will just tell you what the taxi driver told me: when you come out of the hotel, head left and never right. I felt like the Lion King as I was being told to stay only where the light touches.
I have no idea what’s to the right, only told that’s the bad part of town.
Anyway…
There are cool little coffee shops around the hotel and the service makes it a great place to stay.

There are a lot of hotels surrounding Union Square, some are great, some average, and some complete dives disguised as upper-​scale establishments.
I’m happy to report that Adagio is the best place I have stayed in the Union Square area. The rooms are huge by historic building standards, the interior design of the lobby, common areas and rooms is upscale and modern, and the bartender Christopher can make a mean drink supporting local spirits.
If you are reading this trying to figure out if adagio is right for you… Ignore anyone who talks about the homeless population around the hotel. San Francisco has a homeless population period. If you can’t handle homeless people, go somewhere else. The location is only 2 blocks from the square and I never felt unsafe at any time. The streets are nice and clean between the hotel and square. There is a Walgreens next door, and liquor stores, restaurants, bars… whatever you want all within blocks.
My only raised eyebrow was the hotel parking charge. They should be ashamed to charge $ 60 a night to park a car when they are surrounded by 25 – 30 dollar lots. I just went a block west on Geary and chose a more reasonable option.
The front desk staff is great and even accommodated our request for a view room. There are many places to stay in San Francisco, but why look any further… Really. Just go.

Stayed here for 2 night with my wife and 2 daughters. It was really nice and really clean. We stayed on the third floor. The rooms were a decent size, 2 beds and the kids still had room to play. There was a mini bar in the room which we didn’t use (prices were over priced as expected) but we were able to use the fridge to keep our drinks cold, that was nice. Over all liked the experience. 4 stars. Nothing knocked me off my feet.
Quick tip: if you have to park a car, park in the garage to the left of the hotel (facing the hotel) it’s about half the price of hotel parking and includes in and out privileges.

We just stayed at the Hotel Adagio for 6 nights. We loved staying here. The service was excellent! Janren provided exceptional service. He was always calling us by name as we walked by the guest and was so polite and professional! He should be rewarded for such a superb job. I travel on business a lot and wish more people were like him!
The hotel is small and cute. We loved the breakfast each morning in the Green dining room. The lobby and bar/​lounge have a great style.
We loved the location. It was an easy walk to Union square. Powell street. Market street. We took über a lot and can’t say enough about it! $ 7 was the average rate anywhere we went.
I’ve read many of the reviews on here about this not being a typical Marriott property. I’m a Gold Elite Rewards member so I’ve stayed in my fair number of hotels. And yes, it isn’t like a corporate Marriott hotel, but it’s a cute place and keep in mind it’s a renovated old building. The room was very clean and comfortable. It was a little smaller than what I expected from the photo, but it was absolutely fine! We were on the 4^th floor and in a corner (actors suite). I was surprised with how quiet it was. The double panes on the Windows help. The bed was extremely comfortable. The bathroom was spacious. There is popcorn ceiling and an air unit in the room (but it is controlled from a thermostat on the wall). I thought it was great and I would definitely stay there again.
We ate dinner in the lounge on the last night. It was delicious and the service was excellent.
Thank you Adagio for making our trip so wonderful with a comfortable and relaxing place to rest each night.

The room was very cozy and comfy. They had a nice sized dining room table so we could lay out all the food and drinks. The best part of this suite is the outdoor patio. Very large with a wonderful views. There was a corner decked out with comfy patio furniture and they even provided heat lamps! I spent a lot of my time outside enjoying the view.
Very nice boutique hotel. I’d never thought of staying or recommending Hotel Adagio to out of town guests. The birthday party put them on my radar. Such a cute hotel!

Stayed at Hotel Adagio one night for business. Everything was very top notch from checking in to the service. The «full service» gym was somewhat small and would have been a little tight if 5 or more people would have been there but sufficient for a quick hitter. Ordered a late night snack of pizza and two Lagunitas IPAs which came very quickly and hit the spot. Overall, a nice boutique hotel in the middle of all the downtown SF amenities!!!

Worst hotel in the city. People on a major power trip who are rude, inconsiderate and treat you as if you’re a criminal when you’ve done absolutely nothing wrong.
The hotel is nice but I refuse to go back to the hotel after the way the evening staff treated me and my guests.

This was our first stay at Hotel Adagio and we were very disappointed. A few of the lowlights: Extremely small room. Tiny shower stall, no tub. Water pressure in shower abysmal. Broken ceiling fan that rattled and shook even at lowest setting. Most disturbing: tone deaf front desk staff and manager who made insensitive remarks about homeless people near the hotel. Homelessness is serious problem that reflects our priorities as a community and as a society; San Francisco has always had folks living on the streets, it’s just worse since the economic crash. Mocking those in unfortunate circumstances is unnecessary and unprofessional. We’ve spent many days and nights in San Francisco in the past and have never had such a poor experience at a hotel.

Good: Large-​ish room. Good light-​blocking curtains. Restaurant food was good and came out quickly.
Bad: Beds were unevenly firm. Top sheets used instead of fitted sheet. Bathroom was cramped, with the toilet too close to the wall for comfort despite a large area in front of it. No space in front of the sink, and I had to slide sideways thru there to get into the shower/​tub. Water was hot, but I can pee harder than the shower. TV has an uninteresting choice of channels, and the picture quality is bad. Restaurant was claustrophobically small, I didn’t eat there after the first morning, despite getting a good breakfast that first morning.
This hotel decoration is «modern grandma»: kinda dull, too much brown.

The Hotel Adagio has a lovely, modern, swanky bar called The Mortimer downstairs. It’s comfortable, well designed, with a moderate noise level. I frequent this place every week to hear the live music on Thursday nights. The cocktails are well made. The food is fantastic, and comes out fresh and fast. Tiana and the bar staff here are always friendly and fun to chat with. The only downside for me are the TV’s. But if you’re into games or politics, then this should suit you just fine.

My boyfriend and I stayed here for one night, before Valentine’s Day. We’re from the city and we needed a night away that turned out to be pretty mediocre. I guess my expectations were too high for a «boutique» hotel? It IS still the Marriott.
We got to check in around 5, and they gave us our room key right away. I booked through Expedia (saved a couple bucks) and everything turned out to be around $ 280. $ 240 a night for a queen sized bed in a «deluxe» style room? Not worth it!
I called in a special request: to book our room on the highest floor possible with an actual view. We got to our room on the 11^th floor (I think there’s 16?) and it was rather quiet in the halls. After entering the room, we looked at each other in disappointment. I expected a LOT more for the money we paid. No turn down service, even on Valentine’s. No amenities or extra goodies. M&ms that were covered in dust were $ 5! The bathroom was rather gross, and the tub/​shower combo was ridiculously tiny. BREAKFAST IS $ 18… I tried to take a bath and had to get out from freezing because the water was so shallow. There’s a nice flatscreen that turns toward the bed, but has the worst channel selection ever. Like less than 50 channels. The room looked was only prepared for one person, even though my reservation said 2, so we had to call for another set of everything. The bed was whatever.
The view was HORRIBLE. it was soooo insanely loud outside that I don’t know how anyone from outside SF would be able to fall asleep. There’s an outdoor bar across the way that carries noise right into your room. Our window faced another room’s window and there were awkward moments of eye contact with your neighbor in his bathrobe.
Not what I wanted for a mini vacation in my own city. Rip off!

I specifically told them I was going to be staying there because it was my birthday that weekend, and I could not even get that acknowledged. They were not at all too busy. If you want a decent bed and unfriendly staff this is the place.

Great boutique hotel near Union Sauare! Classy décor, comfortable and quiet rooms, and friendly service. Road closures had us driving in circles for over an hour, and the staff patiently guided us to an alternative route over the phone. The hotel was close to plenty of options for shopping, dining, and drinks. Would definitely return on another visit to the city!

One of my favorite hotels in SF. It’s a beautiful boutique hotel that’s pretty central to a lot of things to do in the city.
I’ve stayed here twice before my most recent visit which was several stays over a week long period over Thanksgiving.
What I really love about this hotel is that it’s in a historic building so it’s definitely not a cookie cutter property. All of the rooms are unique and beautiful and pretty spacious. The property is on the smaller side so it’s definitely cozy and quiet.
I love the little touches they provide like the complimentary coffee and tea. A couple of nights during my last stay they were giving out complimentary brownies/​dessert at the front desk which I thought was cute.
The front desk people are friendly, kind and personable. Kudos to Janren (Genren? I’m sorry if I misspelled your name!) he was especially helpful and friendly.
I’d like to comment on a few things though that I think management could improve upon. The cleanliness/​condition of the rooms needs some attention — in the first room we stayed in there was visible grime in between the bathroom vanity and wall. The towel rack in another room we stayed in was severely bent which became apparent once the towel was removed.
I also think the valet price could be lower considering there’s a self parking lot literally right next door for $ 25/​night.
In addition to that, we checked in and out of this hotel I believe 3 times over a week. We stayed probably 4 – 5 nights total. It would have been nice if the front desk had acknowledged us continuing to stay at the hotel — either with a complimentary upgrade or an amenity welcoming us back. No one seemed to notice that we kept coming back. My husband was once Platinum with Marriott and although his status dropped because he switched to Starwood, I think more effort could have been put into recognizing us especially during an obviously slow time for the hotel.
Other than that, it’s a great hotel to stay at if you don’t like staying at big box, run of the mill hotels.

Everything is nice besides they don’t have free Wi-​Fi. I don’t understand why there are still hotels that don’t provide free Wi-​Fi!

A 40 minute waits for breakfast ! They provide vouchers for platinum members and I handed them back. What a joke. I always stay at Marriott hotels and have never come across this before. It shows a lack of good management. I highly recommend the traditional diner, Olympic flame café across the road. No wait, good food, a fraction of the cost and with a smile.

First time staying at Hotel Adagio, Marriott’s Autograph Collection hotels. Small entrance with heavy doors, so use some muscles. Very nice location, close to rental car companies in case you need a car for day trips. Very close to union square and shopping areas. Breakfast area is clean and food is good. Pay attention to the specials on the board if server did not mention it. Happy hours from 4pm — 7pm is very popular. It was crowded during that time. All in all, small hotel but has a nice feel to it. I had a corner room and the view is limited. Kept my curtains drawn as the next window is pretty close. Otherwise, the room is very modern and comfortable. Water pressure is decent, not as string as I would like and there is a mini bar in the room stocked with drinks. Snacks and pleasure kit available too just in case you forgot yours. Warning — door is thin so if neighbors are talking in the hallways, you can hear them.

Cute hotel with great views and location. The staff was helpful with good restaurant suggestions in the neighborhood. I really liked the room and just the overall ambiance.

I stayed there recently
I do not have anything to add to other reviews — the staff were always warm and friendly!
They were always helpful
The rooms are nice and clean
The restaurant provides good quality food at a fair price
I will add — I am a crossdresser! The staff were always supportive kind and helpful and I was made to feel welcome!

I stayed here for business last week and it’s my favorite hotel so far. The staff was amazing, very friendly, seemed to remember me every time I came back from work. The restaurant staff was very helpful and friendly. The bacon hamburger was amazing… but it’s the fries that will definitely bring me back haha
It’s walking distance to pretty cool shops, delicious bakery, starbucks, a cool irish shop Walgreens is nearby too. A few theaters down the street too. There’s parking available but Über is way cheaper. Beautiful view from my room.

I loved the suite I booked this past weekend… It was literally more than I expected, the young girl at the front desk was pleasant and attentive. Our room was spacious and the bathroom was clean and big. My corner suite view was AMAZING, especially at night, the lights set the mood. That evening we walked over to Union Square for some shopping, and did I mention it is the holiday season so SF at night is stunning with all the holiday lights & tree… I enjoyed our drinks at the in house bar, reasonable prices for SF

I loved this hotel. It was cute, the staff was very friendly, and it was walking distance from Union Square. Check in was smooth. The room was large and clean. We went to San Francisco for a girlfriends weekend getaway. Half of the group stayed at a timeshare in Union Square. We chose the Adagio instead. For the money, we got a good deal. Room big enough for 3 ladies and we didn’t feel crowded. The lobby staff always made you feel welcomed whether you were coming or going. They were also very helpful if you had questions, or wanted restaurant recommendations.
The only reason why I didn’t give the full 5 star rating was the restaurant and housekeeping.
Housekeeping — every day she would remove our dirty glasses, but would forget to replace them. So we had to call each evening for more glasses. Nothing major, but it was always late night that we had to call.
Room Service — The first night I ordered room service. Almost $ 50 bucks for a shrimp ceasar salad and some chicken wings. It was a good salad, but it could have used more dressing. The chicken wings were decent, but I didn’t like the sauce. Sure I could have called for more dressing and sauce, but sometimes you just don’t want to be a bother.
The Restaurant — The next morning, we went down for breakfast. 16.00 for sausage and eggs. Skip the coffee because a few steps away in the lobby its free. In the restaurant, its 5.00! Really? My glass of grapefruit juice, 5.00. Fried egg, hard? Came as fried egg, runny. Omelette with sausage on the side, came with the sausage mixed in the omelette. I could see the cooks face when the waitress took the plates back. He didn’t look very happy, so I didn’t send my runny egg back.
Basic breakfast for 3 people, almost $ 100.00. I don’t mind spending the money, I just like to get value for the dollar.
Overall — I loved the hotel and the ladies agreed I made a good choice. Would I stay there again? Definitely!

I stayed at the Hotel Adagio Boutique Hotel during my short stay in San Francisco.
Highlights:
* Very friendly and helpful staff
* Very clean rooms & bathrooms
* Just a few blocks from Union Square
* Walking distance from amazing restaurants
* Happy Hour was quaint and fun
Could use improvement:
* Water Pressure was almost nonexistent (but they are in a drought so couldn’t be too upset)
* Issues with payment and double charges
* Room service, coffee and the like are extra services that you must pay for apart from your room

My wife and I showed up for our one year anniversary and after we unpacked and went out for a night in the city, we came back to a bottle of nice wine and a card from the whole staff congratulating us. Very Classy Hotel Adagio, very classy

The cleaning crew and folks at the desk — all great friendly people. I like the location of this hotel because I could walk to many great spots and it was close to union square.
The bartenders and wait staff– again, very friendly, talkative, and smart. I enjoyed the service and the food.
It’s an expensive hotel with expensive breakfast prices– wish the prices were better.
Wall are thin where we stayed, but I expect that of a downtown hotel like this– haven’t stayed anywhere else.
I like that they offer tea, coffee, and water in their lobby.
If I return to downtown, I’ll certainly consider staying here again.
Yes, try their gimlet— craving that often because of the Mortimer.
Oh, I didn’ t know you were given points (until I read other’s review) for not having your room serviced, that’s cool.

I stayed here over a weekend in August. A boutique hotel, it was more recently picked up by Marriott and added to their Autograph Collection. Conveniently located near Union Square, it’s by no means the cheapest place in town to stay.
No executive lounge, but if they include breakfast in your stay, expect a formal sit-​down experience. I was anticipating a buffet, but you get coffee, juice and three or four different plate options.
No coffee makers in the rooms, but they’re available upon request. 24 hour coffee, tea and infused water available in the lobby.
Be sure to stop at The Mortimer for happy hour from 4 – 7 and try the $ 7 gimlet.

Located just a few blocks from Union Square, this cute boutique hotel is all around good.
My friend and I chose this hotel because of the proximity to Union Square and it’s a Marriott Hotel. She is an elite member so it has some extra perks. Service here was great. From checking in, their restaurants and doormen are all friendly and professional. Each seem to go the additional mile for you.
The rooms are cutely decorated in a modern feel. It was very clean and always stocked. The beds were very comfortable. What I like most is they added more than enough outlets. Sometimes hotels forget everyone needs at least a few for phones and tablets.
Thanks for a great stay!

Love that they are pet friendly!
Sucks that they put us in a room next to the elevator. It ruined the whole experience for me. Walls are super thin and you could hear everything. Requested for a new room, but «everything was booked.»
At least Kat at the main desk was really kind.

I stayed at the Adagio when it was still part of the Joie de Vivre hotel family. At that time I had noted several things that would have helped step it up a bit and was delighted to find they had all been addressed by Marriott when they acquired the property.
The only reason I am not giving 5 stars is the location. It is in the Tenderloin and it is sometimes wearing to be panhandled every 30 feet regardless of time of day. I had someone ask for spare change when I left at 4:36a to run the other morning. :(
So…now to why it IS well rated…
Lobby is fresh, fun and while not huge, perfectly set up for greeting new guests, serving those already staying there, allowing for some relaxation time on comfy and funky upholstered pieces and a perpetually filled cold water infused with *name the flavor of the day* 24 hours a day. I also like that they have glasses, not plastic, to enjoy this water in! Staff is so warm and friendly and seem to genuinely enjoy working there, which really gives great energy each time I come and go through the lobby.
The elevators are small, but have this charming quatrefoil punched pattern all over a thin metal veneer that has that boutique hotel feel. Even with 15 floors and only two elevators, I have yet to wait any appreciable time for a lift to arrive.
Workout facility is available 24 hours a day and has several treadmills, bikes (bot standard and recumbent) and elliptical machines. There are individual screens mounted on each of these devices and ear buds provided if, like me, you forgot yours at home! There are also resistance bands, kettle ball, medicine ball and free weight options. Various machines for weight work of arms, legs and torso and yoga mats, balls and balancing boards. A+ on the workout facility!
The room décor is very funky and while I would never pair aubergine and kiwi, it really works! The bed is exceptionally comfortable, linens are done European style which I love – no icky comforter that hasn’t been laundered in who knows how long – and there is a nice seating area for relaxing, reading and unwinding by the windows.
Bathroom is functional, nothing exceptionally special. Closet is great-​love open shelves as well as hanging space on actual hangers with working clips!
The Green Program offered is a huge favorite of mine! 3.00 credit OR 300 extra Marriott points (yes please!) each night that I skip having my room serviced. I use the same towel all week at home, I prefer to do the same when I travel. Really like the added benefit of skipping services for more points!
I’ll absolutely stay here again in the future should the Stanford Court be full on my next trip… that is my #1 choice in all of SF! But the Adagio is a close second!

Hotel Adagio is a cute boutique hotel located near the Tenderloin District, which is a truly «unique» part of San Francisco., but I will get to that later. Anyways this property is part of the Marriott Autograph collection, so those Marriott members can earn points staying here. However I will be honest with you, Hotel Adagio was not my first choice when visiting San Francisco. In fact it wasn’t even my second choice, the only reason it got booked was because I took to Priceline for one night because my first choice had zero availability the day of my arrival. Luckily
delivered a great hotel and a fair price.
When I first arrived I was greeted with a friendly smile at the front desk, the staff was super friendly and very helpful. The room was spacious and comfortable with a contemporary style, no wonder they advertise as having the largest rooms in downtown San Francisco. The bed itself was firm and comfortable. Since I was only staying a night before moving onto my main hotel I really didn’t get to take in any of the amenities offered like the fitness center, bar, or the small on site restaurant.
As far as location, this was split ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ and I am not 100% sure on how I feel about it. First off it is very convenient and close to XXXXX the problem is that walking to and from you walk through a sketchy part of town scattered with homeless people, many of which are mentally ill. More than likely you will get asked for change, so please take that into consideration if staying with young children or are a single female who will be out after dark. I personally never felt unsafe, however it can be enough to make some people feel uneasy.
I did have hard time rating this, especially considering the proximity a shady area, but I would say that Hotel Adagio deserves a solid 3.5 stars! Even with its shortcomings, which are not deal breakers I will seriously give Hotel Adagio serious thought next time I am in town.

We ended up getting a Priceline deal for this place after doing the «blind» booking process where you name your price and hotel rating but you don’t know what hotel it is until after you’ve paid. $ 150 for a Saturday night — not bad considering normal rate is over $ 200/​night.
Valet parking is available for a steep $ 40/​night (I think?) and the parking lot is right next to the hotel. There is a liquor store and a Walgreens just steps outside of the hotel as well which was awesome.
We had checked in at 7pm and checked out the next morning at 10am so our stay was not that long at all. Building doesn’t look like much from the outside but the lobby was nice, elevators seemed fast, check-​in was painless. Our room was decent size for being in downtown San Francisco. Market Street and Union Square were only 2 blocks away. Our view looked wayyy down into a courtyard 11 floors up and you could see some city buildings in the distance.
Overall we enjoyed our short stay and would consider staying here again if we needed to stay in SF. The Priceline blind booking experience made me a believer in that process as this hotel did not disappoint.

Fällt in die Kategorie: stylische Lobby, dann fährst und mit dem Lift rauf, siehst den Gang und dann schwant dir böses. Böses kam nicht allerdings auch nichts besonderes. Immerhin war es sauber, das personal freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Lage ist auch in Ordnung. Für das gebotene etwas zu teuer, aber die ganze Stadt ist unverhältnismäßig teuer. Würde mir beim nächsten Besuch eine Alternative suchen.
