spericson77 Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 I am looking for a hotel checking in 3/29/16 and checking out 04/02/16 in San Francisco. I will be attending for a conference hosted at the Hilton San Francisco Union Square. I have found a 3* hotel in Union Square West, but need help identifying it please. It is a 3-star facility with the following details: Free Internet, Business center, fitness center, restaurant(s), and smoke-free rooms. It received an 80% recommendation rating on Hotwire and a 3.0 out of 5.0 rating on TripAdvisor. Thank you in advance! Link to comment
AaronJB Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 This listing has not yet been ID'd/reported to the board, but the Hotel Metropolis would be a guess. Please keep us updated with what you decide and let us know if you have additional questions.

spericson77 Posted March 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 And on Hotwire it says the last person to book it got the Hotel Metropolis. I didn't want to disclose that in my original post for fear of tainting the feedback. I will post a follow up once a decision gets made about the booking. As always, thanks for the feedback.

spericson77 Posted March 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 Based on info from Hotwire and confirmed by a board member before booking, I did get the Hotel Metropolis. The reviews on TripAdvisor for this hotel are mixed, but seems like it's clean and the hotel is in a good spot for transportation connections. Amenities: Free Internet Smoke-free rooms Fitness center Restaurant(s) Business center Internet access Link to comment

spericson77 Posted March 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Any feedback on places to eat in the area, especially for breakfast? Link to comment
thereuare Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Hopefully somebody more local to the area than i am can offer some advise.... although i did have some pretty good burritos in the Mission District a few years back.

spericson77 Posted April 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 I returned from my trip and wanted to follow up. Hotel Metropolis did the job, although it's not spectacular. The location turned out to be great for my conference, but you are definitely on the edge of the Tenderloin. However, I had no issues with the local residents. You are likely to get only 1-bed Queen if you book via Hotwire, and if you call to request a 2-bed room (2 Queens) you will be charged $20 per night on top of what you booked already. Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Glad to hear this worked well for your needs. This hotel charges more for rooms with 2 beds vs. 1 bed even when booking direct, so an 'upcharge' to change a HOTWIRE reservation from 1 bed --> 2 beds seems appropriate. Thanks for the follow-up!
