Hotel Adagio, a Joie de Vivre Boutique Hotel - San Francisco 37.78691, -122.41237

My family's stay at the Adagio was very comfortable. Our room was spacious and well appointed with views of the city and very little noise - we were on the fifteenth floor. Problems with a broken kettle and shower were dealt with efficiently even late at night. The Cortez restaurant served an imaginative and well balanced menu, whilst the breakfasts were freshly cooked and promptly served. We enjoyed a drink in the bar in the evening which had a real buzz, it's a good sign when local people drink and eat at a city hotel. The Adagio is a 5-10 minute walk to Powell St station and on to Union Square - we found it hard to find late at night and would recommend a taxi from the airport if carrying heavy cases. There were plenty of restaurants within a few minutes walk, and a useful drugstore round the corner. This was very good value for the price we paid. The Adagio is a well run and stylish establishment which really caters for its guests' needs.

Great hotel.

I had higher expectations. I felt like the hotel was an old apt building cheaply dressed up to be a "boutique" hotel.

I travel often and am quite familiar with the level of service a hotel should provide their guests. For the price I spent per night I was gravely disappointed with the lack of service and attention to detail this hotel staff offered. My overall impression of this hotel and staff was that they were ameteur and unknowing of service guests expect when chosing a place to lay their heads when away from home. They were unfriendly upon check in, cleaning service left dirty dishes in my room and did not replace used coffee mugs, they refused to valet my car due to "them not doing short term parking" even though i stayed there and after calling room service to order breakfast for over 45 minutes I gave up. This hotel has potential but has quite a ways to go before meeting basic service standards. Do yourself a favor and spend your money elsewhere!

Adagio was a great deal. They upgraded our room when we got there, so that was a very nice perk. I can't think of anything bad to say about the hotel, other than the neighborhood on one side was not the best. That said, it was a pretty good locale, centrally located and we got around all of SF without a problem.

If you don't mind a very small hotel room and bath, then you won't be disappointed. The exterior of the building boasts a beautiful facade, and the lobby/bar area is quite lovely and welcoming. The architectural details of the hotel do not disappoint. The location vis a vis Union Square and shopping is very convenitent. Hotel staff is terrific. That said, I would recommend it; but most likely would not stay in this area again unless business reasons demanded it.

A very nice boutique hotel. I was give an upgrade and the room was spacious by SF standards. Well appointed and in excellent condition. Very good value

The bed comfort was poor and the room shabby overall.

I WAS SHOPPING FOR A HOTEL ROOM LAST MINUTE FOR MY BOYFRIENDS BIRTHDAY WEEKEND. WE WERE BLOWN AWAY FROM THE SPECTACULAR VIEW FROM OUR ROOM. WE LOVED IT AND ARE EXCITED TO RETURN SOON.

Nice hotel. Maid service was not spectacular each day, but it wouldn't stop me from staying there again. Hotel chain is very nice and affordable brand!

The restaurant/bar was nice, the lobby was very nice, the rooms were more than adequate given the price point. Try to get a high floor, as there is quite a bit of street noise.

My only complaint is the heat did not work properly so the room was somewhat cold.

Our room was nice and the service at the front desk was great. Good location to get on the trolley and for shopping Union Square. Several choice for dining nearby. Several homeless people in the area, but we experienced this in many areas of San Francisco. Overall satisfied with our stay.

Excellent place to stay!

Although the lobby of the hotel is modern and nicely done, the rooms are in need of renovation. The bedroom itself was small, but not bad; however, the bathrooms are pretty barebones and the towels are too worn, frayed, and some had holes. I don't really care about these kinds of things too much, but I was mostly UNimpressed with the service. I tried to get a glass of milk in the early evening (I'm pregnant) and after a long delay they delivered heavy cream to my room, saying that's all they had (despite the fact that milk is on the breakfast menu as a beverage). In addition, the hotel also offers the service of pre-ordering breakfast the night before, at a designated time. This is great for business travel when you have early morning meetings and want to get ready while you wait for breakfast. Unfortunately, the food was late and not that good at all, once it came. Overpriced as well. So, overall, I wouldn't recommend this hotel. Just the night before I stayed at the Dream Inn in Santa Cruz, which is also part of the same chain. That hotel was nicer than this one.

The same room in Manhattan would be $500+ a night. Spacious, clean & modern in a great location. What more can you ask for?

THE HOTEL WAS CLEAN, COMFORTABLE, AND IN AN EXCELLENT LOCATION. THE STAFF WENT OUT OF THEIR WAY TO TAKE CARE OF US. I WOULD CERTAINLY STAY AT THE HOTEL ADAGIO AGAIN.

The rooms were clean, neat and well maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast was good, although a bit pricey - $14. There is no bar or dining area available, only room service. Parking is overpriced so we used the lot next door. My cousins paid for a suite and expected two room, but upon arrival they discovered it's a larger room with a sleep sofa. Overall, it's still a good value for a downtown SF hotel.

the location of this hotel was perfect. Only a few blocks from market street with great access to the F line and other transportation. The staff was very helpful and informative. Would recommend this hotel to anyone! Kevin Boston, MA

The price, location, and friendliness of staff were great, BUT....... the pictures on Hotels.com for this hotel were NOT AT ALL what the room actually looked like. The coffee maker was dirty, the bed was uncomfortable, the bathroom smelled moldy, the bed comfort was so,so, and our in room movie system didn't work.

Hotel Adagio was a great place to stay! The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, the beds were super comfy. The location was great. My only complaint (and it's not that much of a complaint, more of an annoyance really) is that our bathroom didn't have a fan. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay and I would stay there again without hesitation.

Down comforters, stylish wood accents everywhere, and a front door that takes two people to move. The room was quiet and the staff was friendly. Watch out for parking costs, you can park for half the price at other lots rather than $40 a night through the valet. The location is 3-4 blocks from Market St., good shopping, MoMA, and some good eats. No Bums out front was a plus+

The room was excellent, comfortable, very clean, and everything worked. The staff at the front desk had great suggestions for neighborhood restaurants and the valet service was efficient. The hotel restaurant and bar was beautiful and had a very fun crowd. Really a fantastic little boutique hotel with a real artistic edge.

Threadbare, needs to be referbished. Cleanliness is not an extremely high priorety here. I guess the definition of boutique hotel they use here equals small hotel. Think of an older urbanized Motel 6. Great central location

Just minutes to Union Square. Great rooms, amazing staff with upbeat bar and restaurant. Great stay, will stay again!

I have stayed at the Adagio many times over the last few years. It's a good option for those who don't want to spend top dollar, yet want a unique experience. Many aspects of the hotel are very charming, but some attention to certain details need greater attention (the bathtub could have used a good scrubbing and the shower head was pathetic). Overall, it was fine and I would certainly stay here again and recommend it to others.

My only negative is something the hotel has no control over, but in this area of the city the homeless are extremely abundant and too much aggressive. During the day, tolerable, but late at night not so much.

Friendly professional staff, nice clean rooms, great view, great location; right new union square, a stones throw to the trolleycar, and only 20 blocks from the fishermans wharf. $20 per night parking right next door. Would stay there again in a second - highly recommended!
