Stayed at this hotel for 3 nights.
Loved every minute of it .
It has everything going for it. Woonderful cosy rooms. Spotless , and well maintained. Perfect location. Food in the restaurant very good because i find food in hotels normally very poor.
The staff could not do enough for you. Wes, thank you for the help, I got my Canon tele-photo .lens.

I travelled from Ireland and will def go back but this time I'll bring my wife and child.
The only negative: I can't get a room for 2 adults and one child. I want to go back so I enquired.

lOOKING FORWARD TO REVISITING THE CHANCELLOR AT SOME TIME AGAIN. THANK FOR MAKING MY TRIP SO PLEASANT.

Ioved the pleasant soothing decor of the room, overlooking Union Square. It had a ceiling fan, was cool and you could open the window. There was lots of room and the bathroom though small was very cleverly arranged. The only negative for me was the smell in the lobby as another reviewer mentioned. I have a nose like a sniffer dog (my husband says) and I tracked it down to the popcorn dispenser. I happen to hate the smell of popcorn, so maybe it was OK for those raised on that smell. I would suggest relocating the dispenser, to remove the smell which is a bit of a surprise to us foreigers, in particular.

The staff were delightful and always pleasant and helpful.

We stayed at the Chancellor for six nights during the San Francisco leg of our honeymoon trip. I chose it after seeing the great reviews it had on Trip Advisor, and can only say that it is thoroughly deserving of the praise it has received on here.

We stayed in room 1205, up on the twelfth floor, and had lovely views of Union Square and Macy's. Although I had told them in advance we would be arriving in the evening, about 9pm, I was still a little worried that they might have forgotten and given our room away; this ended up being totally unfounded, as the reservations and front desk staff were very efficient and had everything noted down perfectly. They had even noted it was our honeymoon, and congratulated us when we checked in, and we had a lovely little gift waiting for us in our room from them, which was wonderful.

The hotel is very swish, with a pleasant lobby and bar area with marble floors. Our room was great, spotlessly clean, with a lovely comfortable bed. The cleaning staff were great, as we'd sometimes only go out for a couple of hours late morning, and by the time we came back the room had always been made up. The staff on the front desk were really helpful, warm and knowledgeable about the local area. The hotel's location is also really good, as you are very close to all the shops of Union Square, and you can easily get to buses and the metro for travel around the city. Union Square is very touristy, so we were pleased to get away to some of the other parts when we weren't shopping.

There was no air conditioning in the room, but with the ceiling fan we had no problems with temperature at all - although it was quite foggy while we were there, so was never that hot outside. We also had no problems with noise in the room; you were too high to be disturbed by any street noise, and you could only hear people outside your room as much as you would in any hotel.

I really liked my stay here, and was very very pleased that I chose the Chancellor. I wasn't sure if you were meant to take the cute rubber ducky home with you from the bathroom, but I did, and he is now a nice reminder of our lovely stay there in my bathroom at home.

I would definitely recommend this hotel, and it would be my first choice for any future trip to San Francisco. It is well deserving of its rank on here, and is also a lot cheaper than many of the hotels with similar ratings.

Thank you Chancellor Hotel!

One of my favorite things about Chancellor is that Mr Wes Tyler, General Manager keeps responding the reviews. Please do not laugh, but it was a major point I choose this hotel for the first days of our 2 weeks journey in Bay Area. And it was a really good choice.
The hotel is located right in the heart of the city, a great starting point for your walking tours on the streets of San Francisco.
The people at the front desk are very helpful and friendly. We asked for a room at the highest floor available at arriving. We had a backyard view we were not interested in as we used the room only for sleeping. The room was very clean and tasteful equipped; we just loved the calming green and beige/brown colors. And the pillows smelled great!
The “very-best” was the breakfast at the Chancellor, especially our waiter. It is a shame but I don’t remember his name. He was always smiling and friendly talking to us even if he had to run. He knew from the second day on how my boyfriend likes his coffee and took care the pancakes have just the right temperature when arriving at our table. Thank you!
We would definitely stay at Chancellor next time.
