The hotel is cute and very historic. The bed was… waaaaay too sift. Uncomfortably so unfortunately. Like a pen full of feather pillows. I had to put pillows under my back to be able to sleep.

The front desk was top notch at check-in. Room was comfortable and clean. Love the charm of the older hotel. We could hear the loud voices of the people next door, but that is true of most places. Great value.

Great Hotel in Union Square
I was there for work and wanted to stay in Union Square because I love the holiday decorations down there. This hotel was perfect for that. It is directly across the street from Macy's and a 15 minute walk to my job. The room was comfortable and the staff was great. I would stay there again in an instant.

Reliable old favorite
The Chancellor is a consistently high-quality, good value, old-school hotel. Always a peaceful retreat from the business of Union square, yet centrally located with easy walking and access to Bart and Muni.
