Villa Florence, a Larkspur Hotel

Nice Hotel

The hotel room was very comfortable. We were surprised that the restaurant and room service food was exceptional. The Italian theme of the hotel was in everything they served from the wines to the food. This is not a bad thing. Just to let others know. The location was a challenge at night because of the transients hanging around the area.

Classy, comfortable, and a great location

Villa Florence is a wonderful boutique hotel on Powell close to Union Square and just a couple of blocks from Market Street and the BART. The lobby is beautiful with a nice wine bar and a good restaurant inside; the rooms are bigger than I expected for this location and price, nicely furnished and very comfortable.

great location

especially from a tourist point of view. union sqr 1/2 block etc. If noise is an issue for you, ask for an interior room to alleviate any possibility of cable car noise from Powell Street.

"Returned but disappointed"

stayed at this hotel in March and looked forward to returning but this October booking was much more expensive! Did not feel "worth it." Was assigned to a tight little room with no view and food smell Asked and was immediately given a larger room. (good customer service) Bed was not at all comfortable. And while there was nothing to complain there was also nothing to praise. Next visit to San Francisco will not be spent here.

Could use a bit of sound proofing

This hotel was OK. It is located in the Union Station area, walking distance to convention center, but also quite a bit of noise from the street and adjacent rooms. Hotel was fine for the amount of time spent there but would not rush to stay again.

Very good very comfortable

They have my recommendations any time

Great Boutique Hotel w/ Personalized Service

Favorite stay in SF! Boutique, European feel without any snottiness. They make note of and act on special requests (ex: interior room to avoid street noise). Even if some of the rooms are a tad tired, all have super comfy beds w/ flat panel TVs. New room service for breakfast is a nice add (great coffee) w/ complimentary paper.

Noisy & Quaint

Be sure to ask for an inside room, as the cable car runs till late and starts early. Room was small, shower a little on the dingy side. Bathroom was so small that your leg rubbed on the toliet paper holder when you went to the bathroom. Not enough outlets for electronics, which was an inconvenience.

Great location and great hotel for the money

This hotel is located right on the cable car line. The hotel is clean and comfortable for the money. The restaurant downstairs is always busy and gets consistent great reviews.

A Delightful Hotel- Worth Every Dime

As a women travelling alone on business, I am most concerned with safety. I felt safe and comfortable in this hotel. Every employee I encountered was helpful and courteous. The location was perfect for walking to many meal options, some very reasonably priced. I have tagged it as my favorite SF downtown hotel.

Don't stay on the second floor

The location is fantastic. It is right in the heart of Union Square. Walking distance to shopping and restaurants/bars. The Rooms are nice but very small. I was there by myself but could see 2 people constantly bumping into each other if they shared a room. I was also on the second floor and had to ask the hotel to turn down the lobby music at 11:30 PM because I could hear it. I got this room on special for $100. I think it was worth it b/c of the location and since I was alone. I would not pay more for this room especially if I was with another person.
