Renoir Hotel - San Francisco 37.78115, -122.41266

After arriving late from our flight, found the hotel relatively easy and parked hire car in valet ($30). For price is good bt area is slightly uncomfortable if not in good company. San fran in general has a lot of Hobos but not once were we bothered. Shoulndt affect hotel choice

I was able to walk at all hours in multiple directions from the Renoir Hotel. The homeless may make some people uneasy but not one bothered me as I went to and from. The room was simple but fine for the money. The rate would have to skyrocket with a comprehensive renovation.

1. Service wasn't great. a. Had to stand at front desk for 15 minutes while the desk clerk messed around with the computer, assisting another guest. b. Maids didn't come clean our room until 3:30 pm. We asked if they could come in the morning, and they acted like we asked for the moon. 2. Neighbourhood was seedy. The hotel is directly across the street from a dirty movie theatre. Lots of homeless people hanging around. 3. On a positive note, the hotel is very close to the BART station, lots of buses, walking distance from Union Square, and not far from Chinatown.

The hotel was rather nice given the part of town its in. It was very elegant looking but still was affordable(as long as booked online). Front desk manager at night was not very welcoming though.The rest of the staff was great. I would stay again

I think what people need to keep in mind is that the Renoir Hotel is a historical vintage hotel. I overlook the bums and shit like that because just a few blocks away is the best shops ever. Appreciate the fact that this hotel has preserved many of it's original fetures. I thank the bar owner and bartenders at the bar connected to the Renoir. They took my friend and I in and made us feel at home in San Francisco. That was one of the dumbest times ever ..... And it could not have been done without the two cutest female bartenders. Thanks to the guys working there too!!!!! The DJ rocked. I think I owe you guys some cash though. I will be back.! So pull out what you want from the hotel. Don't compare it to the moder hotels you stay at now. Just enjoy it's originality and uniqueness. It's like staying in a hotel back in the '40's. Remember ......it's vintage.

Good location, clean and confortable room. Something noisy by street´s transit. There is not air conditionner

For a quick one night stay, this is a inexpensive option, but definitely don't expect too much. For what you pay, the experience is adequate or above.

The hotel overall was not that bad, but $30 for valet parking when we checked in at 7:30 at night and had to have the car out by noon, $30 was ridiculous to pay.

I never stayed at a worst place,1st the street was under constuction,no place to park within 3 blocks,so traveling after dark,made you worry your life and those in your family.2nd a terrible part of town that i did not want my kids to see.3rd very rude people working there,best word of advice LOOK SOME WHERE ELSE FOR A ROOM

Room was clean and simple. Perfect for low budget. Close to downtown, although hotel location not the best.

When I read that this hotel was renovated in 2008, I expected updated clean rooms. What I got was a room where they'd painted the tub with the incorrect paint so that it was peeling. Additionally the windows were nailed to prevent us from opening the windows too much. Also, the lobby chairs were filthy and I have significant doubts about the cleaniness of the rooms overall. Honestly, I could have stayed at a Motel 6 for half the price and gotten the same results.

Elevator is super slow, staff not friendly, felt like a hostel. You get what you pay for.

I stayed here with a friend of mine. The Staff was very nice. The Hotel it's self was nice enough. The surrounding area is one of the worst areas in San Fran which I did not know until I met up with a friend who lives in San Fran. I assume its because of all the homeless people in the area and there are A LOT!!! It's prob. not the safest to go wondering around at night. The hotel is close to a lot of sites. My friend and I walked to the financial district, fisherman's wharf, and the golden gate bridge from the hotel. There is lots of store for shopping about 3 blocks down. The hotel rooms did have a prob. with the hot water. I wouldn't recommend this hotel for families or for stays longer then two days and be prepared to pay $27 a day for valet parking. you may actually be better of staying at a hotel the is more expensive, but includes parking if you have a car. Other wise for a younger crowed that will have guys with its a ok place for the money.

There were many things that need to be done to the hotel, The staff needs their attitudes adjusted. When asked about parking arrangements, there was a lot aggitation that came from it. They were really short and quick to answer. There was no open parking garage. The neighborhood was pretty GHETTO, full of hobos around. My pillows had stains on them and there wasn't enough blankets in the room. There was supposed to be a complimentary iron inside the room, but I had to call the help desk to obtain one and they said "Are you going to come down?"

I don't even know where to begin. Their description stated that they were located near by Union Square/Financial District Area. When I got to this place, I found myself in a war zone with homeless people harassing everyone on the street (not to mention going to the bathroom right on a sidewalk). They had 2 elevators and only one of them was operational with a wait time of 10 minutes after you press the call button. Carpeting in hallways was stained with substances I couldn't figure out. Some hotel guests on our floor were smoking marijuana and the management didn't seem to care. Water pressure in the bathroom was a joke, I had to finish my shower by filling up ice bucket with water and pouring it on myself since the pressure in a shower couldn't do the job. At night outside the hotel homeless people were getting drunk and yelling and screaming all night long and nobody gave a damn about that. This place is located in the tenderloin district of San Francisco so stay there at your own risk, I know I won't ever again.

Beautiful 1909 era Hotel. Front desk staff was very freindly and recommended a great restaurant and even gave us a cupon for free appetizer. On the edge of Tenderloin District with some homeless milling about on the street but, did not hassle us at all. Pleasant stay.

Located close to all transport links easy for trains, trams, buses and cable cars. Location is close to many homeless and beggars and is noisy on friday and saturdays with night club till 2am

Would stay there again, however, hopefully they will improve on the 'Towels'; They were quite flimsy. Also, elevator slow, need to be patient. All in all, hotel was nice and would stay there again, eventhough, surrounding area a bit seedy, but is close to many popular destinations, which was our main concern.

Great location close to shopping and bus/trolley lines. Homelessness is somewhat a problem but we had good experiences. The hotel staff was nice when we checked in but it took over an hour to get our lugguge up to our room and after calling three times for it. I would give them another chance. The lounge was awesome!

The Renoir is a good hotel for the world or budget traveler with few expectations. Convenient location and price may not outweigh noise from the adjacent Market street--and not a place for children to linger after dark. The young staff is helpful and very courteous. We'd stay again if in a pinch. We're both over 45. What didn't work? Internet connection in 7th floor room, TV remote, fan, and no refrigerator if you buy groceries.

practicaly no hot water, no AC

Very helpful staff... Kind of rundown hotel... Close to everything... Located in a very suspect neighborhood...

1. Room needs to be redone (walls, faucets, etc.) 2. Carpets are a total mess. Redo them 3. Elevator is slow and one of them is not working. Takes forever to get a ride. 4. Located in a very unsafe area. There is a homeless shelter right next door. 5. Wireless is $9.99/day for unlimited access. Must be free. 6. You can hear flushes of toilet from all rooms around you. 7. Water pressure is totally nil. Will take forever to take a shower !! 8. Coffee from the machine downstairs is horrible. 9. Soda from the machine was warm. 10. Room heater and iron is available on request. 11. Bar was out of service. However, the service was ok, any request I gave was attended by the front desk in a reasonable time.

Area around hotel was very bad. Very noisy. The hotel had earplugs in the dressing table. Not safe to enter or leave after dark. No fridge in room. Staff was very courteous and was a big plus. I would not stay there again.

good room for the money.

Front desk needs a lession on customer service. This hotel looks and feels like a "Hostel". Very poor. Would never go back.

The inside of the hotel was beautiful, however it seems to be ina bad area. There was no parking AT ALL and I needed to pay and additional $30.00 to valet my car. It was worth the money for being a hotel in San Francisco.

Hotel sans vraiment de charme, situé dans un quartier sans charme et envahi par les sans abris. Pas vraiment gênant, sauf quand vous retrouvez votre voiture avec la brise brisée. Pas de possibilité de petit déjeuner lorsque j'y étais (novembre 07). Qualité/prix très moyen. Seul point positif, le personnel de l'accueil. Pro et sympa.

Das Hotel ist etwas veraltet aber sauber und gepflegt. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Zimmer sind zur Strasse und daher ziemlich laut. Ohrpfropfen sind in der Nachttischschublade vorhanden. Das Stadtgebiet wird von Obdachlosen und Kiffern belebt. Aber der Union Square mit seinen reichen Touristen und schicken Restaurants und Shops ist ja nicht weit.
