My husband and I chose the Inn as a place to lay our heads after attending a family birthday party in the city. The room, though small, was very clean and neat. We especially appreciated the small wet bar area complete with refrigerator & coffee maker. The bathroom was small as well but also clean and well supplied. The best part of our stay was the impeccable customer service we received from the front desk staff, specifically Rowena, and the concierge. They were extremely helpful and courteous; even offering my husband an umbrella to use for a walk to the store in the rain. A complimentary breakfast is available each morning in the restaurant however we did not have time to partake. The only drawback to this wonderful establishment is that the parking garage is not on site. Guests must call 10-15 minutes in advance for their vehicle. However, don’t let this dissuade you from choosing this charming hotel. The location is ideal if you are attending an opera or concert. My husband and I will definitely return to take advantage of this and to enjoy the service of this wonderful staff.

Reviewed by David of Irvine on Nov 15, 2009
My visit began with being greeted by Jee, #3. She was warm and efficient. I have been here before and this time I stayed in a larger room but it didn't have a ceiling fan. I kind of missed the comfort of the fan while sleeping however I had two windows, that when opend, provided a nice cross breese. The complimentary breakfast a perfect way to start my day. I will stay here again in December.

Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Oct 6, 2009
We've stayed several times at Inn at the Opera and are pleased by everything except the room size. It seems that the rooms available on hotels.com are the hotels smallest: with a queen bed, there is hardly room to turn around or to stash a couple's luggage.

Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jul 9, 2009
The service was good- the staff was polite, but the rooms were tiny, and the parking garage they had only held like 10 cars. This was not helpful, considering the location of the hotel, right in the heart of Civic Center. The bed was HORRIBLE- not fluffy in the slightest, and you could feel every movement. I can tell that the management company has tried hard to turn this aged building into a "quaint bed and breakfast", but they should have started with gutting and renovating the insides first. Personally, for the amount I paid, I would have rather stayed at something more modern and less pricey.

Reviewed by Michael of Seattle on May 27, 2009
The Inn at the Opera is a lovely little hotel, but is primarily a time-share resort. We were booked in to a room that was the smallest hotel room we've ever been in. The staff made noises about trying to accommodate us in a larger room, but had essentially no flexibility to do so, because other guests couldn't be shifted because they were time share owners coming to their units, not regular hotel guests. My only qualm was the size of the room - beware room 75, and get a commitment about which room you'll be in before you book.

It is a pleasure t stay in a place where the staff actually seem to be glad you are there! Very friendly and helpful. Yes, the rooms are very small but done well and the beds are very comfortable. It has a charm you cannot find in a chain hotel. Lots of great dining and bars close by. We had a great stay.

Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Apr 18, 2009
I got a great rate on this hotel through hotels.com and so would consider it excellent value. But note the following: PRO: Friendly, attentive staff. Decent breakfast buffet (cold stuff only) included. Well kept. Microwave, fridge, dishes, in room (don't know if all have this) CON: Very small rooms -- mine was literally two feet larger on each side than the queen bed. Located near City Hall, Opera House, etc. (hence the name); fine if that's where you need to go, but otherwise not near the usual SF attractions.

This is a perfect place to stay.Close to public transportation and bordering and an area to the west with many restaurants. The service is outstanding.The rooms are tiny but very clean with all necessities. The hotel staff will go out of their way to help you.I got a promotional rate but I guess in season the charge rate will be a lot more. Advice: it is a safe area but avoid the triangle Union square,Geary street and Polk street or the so called Tenderloin at night.

out of value="5""Nice hotel but with a couple issues"
Reviewed by John of Portland on Jun 16, 2008
The staff was excellent and very friendly. My room wasn't ready when I arrived (at 3:30 - after the check in time), but they found another room on the second floor. I'm not picky but I probably should have been in this case. The room itself was fine, but the window overlooked the loading bay or something and every morning at 6am there would be a great load of noise coming from outside. Also, the walls are very thin. I could hear all my neighbors talking (and I don't think they were being that loud). Finally, I missed the part about WiFi being an extra cost (I guess I've been spoiled by other hotels) so that was a bummer. If you can deal with a noisy place, then the Inn at the Opera is fine.

Reviewed by Lisa of Hollister on Jun 12, 2008
The front desk had me a little worried when they told me they had me scheduled to arrive the next day. (even though my comformation from Hotels.com said the correct date) They still had a room which was on the 5th floor at the very end of the hall. The room was very small but was sufficient for my stay as I was only sleeping in the room. The front desk people were very nice and friendly. The parking was $28.00 and was offsite however you had 24 hour access to your vehicle. They let us check in 45 minutes early. The bed was extremly comfortable!!!! My only complaint was the maid service trying to come in my room at 9:30 in the morning without proper worning. Good thing the chain lock was on the door or they may have gooten an eye full.

Couldn't have found a nicer hotel for our multi-day trip to the city of San Francisco. Room was extremely clean and well furnished, also equipped with small fridge, a microwave and a coffee maker besides the standard stuff like TV, and phone, etc. When they say non-smoking they mean non-smoking. Close to main attractions and good public transportation to get to anywhere in the city. A bit noisy, but overall satisfaction was excellent. Superb continental breakfast, lots of choices. Next time I will definitely stay at this same hotel.

This is a small elegant hotel where I love to stay on brief visits to the city. Well located for my needs and convenient for cultural events and a variety of pleasant restaurants. The hotel's restaurant is beautiful and quiet, and a very nice complimentary breakfast buffet is served there daily. Unless you want to be right in the Union Square area or are looking for spaciousness in a hotel, this is a great place.
