Galleria Park Hotel, a Joie de Vivre Boutique Hotel - San Francisco

Veldig hyggelig lite hotell, med god standard på rom og fellesområder. Veldig hyggelig bonus med gratis kaffe på morgenen, og gratis vin på kvelden(!) - i lobbyen. Samlet hotellgjestene på en positiv måte jeg ikke har opplevd på andre hoteller. Vil definitivt vurdere dette hotellet igjen om jeg skal til SF igjen.

A small and cosy hotel in perfect distance to everything. They don't serve breakfast at the hotel but there is a cafe' in the same building witch serve good and reasonable food. They do serve complimentary wine every evening, and coffee & tea in the morning. The staff is super helpful. I stayed here with my friend and I'll definitively come back later […] with my husband. Highly recommend it!! Les mer

Being two blocks from the BART stop makes this hotel very convenient for getting anywhere in the city. Plenty of restaurant and shopping options in easy walking distance and a good neighborhood to boot.

I have stayed in a few of the downtown San Francisco hotels. This is one of the better ones. Staff is great.

Great staff, location, and guest service but our room was right beside the stairs and facing the street. We ended up getting little to no sleep due to all the noise. I do recommend this hotel, but the next time I will ask to be as far away from both as possible.

Nicely revamped main areas. Baths dated but ok. Great location near union square and Chinatown. Very helpful staff.

Had a very pleasant stay. Liked the daily wine sampling hour. Did not like the charges for using the computer in the business center (almost $5.00 for the first 20 minutes, extra for printing out material, very petty for such a grand hotel). Overall a nice location (close to the BART station, cable car, trolley and of course shopping). Staff very nice […] and helpful. Les mer

I would certainly recommend this hotel over any bigger hotels. The service was really nice and the place was clean and quiet and really easy to find. It was centrally located and only a block from the BART.

Loved it!

My husband and I spent a night in SF for my birthday. We wanted a romantic hotel that was close to public transportation. This place is the spot. The hotel is beautiful. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I love that they have tea time in the morning and wine tasting in the evening. We will come back.

Beautiful old hotel, well restored and upgraded. Lots of posh shopping in the neighborhood but little night life. Well situated for getting around town (which you have to do - so many great neighborhoods in SF!). Free coffee in the morning and wine in the evening and a walking track/veranda on the third floor - but head out to the streets if you want […] to walk. Head toward the Ferry Building and around the Embarcadero towards Fisherman's Wharf if you don't want hills or go straight north to Coit Tower for starters. We really liked our stay here. Les mer

The room was a bit small, but otherwise everything was excellent. The place is clean and well maintained. The hotel is in a good location and the people at the front desk are most helpful and very knowledgeable when asked for advice and assistance.

I loved it valet parking was expensive so take Bart or find somewhere else to park. Besides that it was great I'm planning on coming back

This was by far the nicest SF hotel we've done. reasonable parking, very nice staff, very clean facility

nice hotel. could use a bit more cleanliness and thought to tit furniture placement in small rooms.

This hotel is great! We were treated very well and all our requests were dealt with professionalism and in a timely manner. If you are looking for a location that is close to the downtown core - this is it. It is 1 block from the gate to Chinatown, 15 minute walk to Little Italy and 1 minute to Market Street. Over all a great location to all amenities […] and a great staff to rely on. Les mer

The hotel is within close walking distance of a BART station, reasonable walking distance from very nice restaurants and shopping, etc. The lobby area is beautiful, and the rooms are well-decorated. Our room was much smaller than I generally expect, as was the bathroom, but everything was clean. There was some early morning noise, including a homeless […] person shouting, and garbage trucks, but overall, the hotel was stll a very nice choice. Les mer

This was our first time in SF and I was taking a gamble on this hotel. We were pleasantly surprised by a beautiful and comfortable lobby, the most friendly and helpful staff I have ever encountered, a free room upgrade, a cocktail hour, free coffee and tea in the AM, valet parking at a reasonable rate and the best location possible for walking, shopping […] and eating! I will definetely be staying here again! Les mer

The Galleria Park Hotel is in an awesome location -- very central, a bus stop on the corner, a BART station about a block away, and a Walgreens nearby for last minute needs. Plus, a Jamba Juice next door and a nice coffee shop (Bread & Cocoa) downstairs for quick, yummy breakfast. Quick bus rides to Chinatown, North Beach, Fisherman's Wharf, etc., BART […] ride to Mission District. Plus if you want to explore the city on foot more, you could walk to plenty of places within a mile. My only complaints would be: you're facing a major street, so there's a good amount of street noise. If you're a light sleeper, this might be too much for you. The front desk staff is fine, but not super friendly. And the room was a little small, mostly because of the big furniture crammed in a tight space. But overall, the hotel is clean, modern, well-kept. You'll be comfortable here, as long as you can deal with the outside noise. On the 5th floor, it wasn't too bad, but I'd imagine if you're on a lower floor, it could be pretty loud. Les mer

This hotel is in an older building but very nicely refurbished. The rooms are very quiet despite the noisy neighborhood. The outdoor walking track and park is a nice addition, as is the small exercise room. The hotel is in easy walking distance to the Montgomery St. BART station, making it very convenient from the airport.

We got a eally good deal thru Hotel.com., staff we very helpful,and all the shopping store were at walking distance

The Hotel is nice and near Union Square and Market Street where you find all good shops and restaurants. Room is confortable and quiet.

I never bother writing reviews normally but I felt the need to tell others not to underestimate this great hotel. I was in SF on business and for a show at the Moscone so I initially wanted to get one of the hotels closer by and for a higher star rating. However after reading the reviews i decided to give this one a go. I am very glad i did! The hotel […] is a 6 minute walk from the Moscone Centre and is a 5 minute walk from Union Square. It is really well located for a trip round SF. I stayed on the 7th floor and my room was large, clean and had all the things i would look for in a good quality hotel. The only thing that lets the rooms down are the bathrooms but this is an older hotel so it has to be expected. The staff are friendly and really helpful and i have to say that i was really impressed with this hotel which does not happen a lot. I stay in a lot of 5* hotels and you tend to miss the little things. This place was perfect and at a good price, so go there and enjoy! Les mer

The hotel is very good, with an outstanding location. The staff is really kind and helpful. The room was clean and was spacious. The only pitfall is the heating in the room. It's and old system, with the radiator. During the night you have to choose between be warm or hear the noise of the steam being purged. Anyway, the bottom line is positive.

The hotel was eh. The rooms were average, the bathroom small, location decent. A few blocks from Union square, and Powell street. The service was the highlight, as well as our dog being able to stay with us with no extra charge.. YAY! There was a little courtyard for the dog, however you have to leave your dog on leash because there's staircases that […] go to street level. Would I go back, yes but only if I had my dog with me. Other than that we would try somewhere else. The robe in the room felt like it was used and not fresh... kinda gross. The room itself was clean, the tv decent size, however the remote didn't work well. In Conclusion, go there if you in a jam in the City with your furry friend. Les mer

So this is a boutique hotel which i guess in sf translates to old and small. I learned something from this trip though about selecting a hotel. If there are very few online pics - there is probably a reason for it! All the other reviews spoke about the really great staff. I didnt think any of the staff was friendly, especially the valet (who made […] a huge deal about me leaving my rental in front for 10mins to run upstairs and change clothes). The room i booked was supposed to be a queen bed. I actually spoke to two front desk people that assured me it was. It definitely was NOT! They then told me it was a standard queen and there is such a thing as a california queen which is what they said i was probably use to. LOL .... ok! The room was very cramped, bathroom had wasted space, heater very noisy with the hot water popping out of a spout, VERY lousy housekeeping (didnt pick up some wrappers on floor or refill the sugar/creamer packets). I stayed 11 consecutive days and can NOT recommend this hotel. Les mer

This is a very nice, well-located hotel with air conditioning. The staff was very kind and accommodating. We enjoyed a delicious chardonnay at the complimentary wine time in the pretty lobby area. My only complaint is the bathroom where there is a pedestal sink - women need counter space for cosmetics and everyone needs space for toothbrush, toothpaste, […] water glass, whatever. I do not understand this pedestal sink trend in hotels - makes no sense for those living from a suitcase! Overall, tho, very very good stay. Les mer

From the moment you walk into the lobby of the Galleria Park Hotel you are taken back into time with the eleagance of a past era. There is a 1920's feel, with all the modern ameneties and great hotel staff that takes pride in meeting their guests needs; always with a smile. My partner and I stayed for a week and have nothing but good to say. Highly […] recommend. Additionally, the Galleria Park is located right in the middle of it all, within walking distance of many attractions as well as public transportation to get to attractions farther away. It's a no brainer, on our next trip to SF, we will be staying at the Galleria Park. Les mer

The staff were very helpful and location was ideal for exploring San Francisco. Hotel was excellent value overall, very clean and welcoming with knowledgeable staff willing to share their experiences. Room itself was absolutely fine - bathroom a little tired but always clean and serviced daily. We wouldnt hesitate to stay here again if we were in San […] Francisco. Les mer

Our recent stay in the Galleria Park Hotel was quite enjoyable! The hotel is charming. The service is excellent. The location is convenient. We had easy, walking access to Union Square and Chinatown and quick taxi rides to the piers and Golden Gate Bridge. We would readily choose this hotel again and would recommend it to others.

The hotel is really nice and cosy, which is quite a surprise for a hotel that is right smack in the city centre, and near to many shops, restaurants and the Montgomery BART station. During check-in, the reception staff Zach was really excellent considering there was a whole bunch of people arriving at about same time in the early evening, and he was […] only person at the counter. The hotel serves complimentary coffee and tea in the morning, and drinks in the early evening which was really nice. The only downside is perhaps the traffic noise in the early morning that wakes me out early, but it is quite unavoidable considered the location, and is ok if you are on business trip. Les mer

service good. Room a little small. Not enough towel racks and not good lighting in bath. Wine happy hour great.

GPH is perfectly located a couple blocks off Union Square - not smack in the middle of crazy traffic, but so close you're there before you know it. It is a short walk from BART & Market St. and near Ferry Building and Embarcadero. It feels safe to walk around area at night and there are usually helpful doormen there to hail a cab or greet and welcome […] you back. The cafe on the corner, Bread & Cocoa, is a nice place to grab breakfast, coffee, a snack... whatever you need. Couldn't really ask for more in SF. We booked a King Deluxe room to ensure we had plenty of space. The first room they checked us into was an interior and felt claustrophobic so I rang the front desk and asked about other options - they offered an exterior room without any fuss and sent up a key right away. Very professional and courteous all around. The only thing that held this back from 5 stars for us was that housekeeping missed coming in on Saturday even though we were gone most of the day. No big deal, but just a smidge under that pure premium feel. Recommend! Les mer

The hotel was clean and well located. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was very small and the bathroom was so tiny, there was no shelf space for electric razor, electric toothebrush et al. The king size bed was very comfortable and clean with plenty of pillows. The hotel is old but clean.

Every employee I interacted with was warm, friendly, and helpful. While the hotel is in a great spot, has a beautiful lobby and comfortble rooms- the employees REALLY stand out. The gym is very small and not user-friendly, but the 24 Hour fitness right around the corner is easy and convenient.

Had a very nice early winter break in San Franciso. As a fan of the joie de vivre hotel chain, was thrilled to see a reasonably priced option on hotels.com. The hotel was even better than the description, centrally located, charming and of course that signature joie de vivre customer service. I am a convert, will stay again - and soon! Great to have […] these options in Hotels.com Les mer

In San Francisco again for business, I was thrilled when I pulled up to the hotel. The location was fantastic and I'd be within walking distance of both my meetings and great restaurants. The staff was wonderful, the lobby was gorgeous, and the wine reception by the fireplace was a nice touch. Little did I know that I should have guzzled the wine in […] order to sleep because the beds were simple incompatible with sleep. I lay on the first one and my honest reaction, no exaggeration, was that by mistake someone had put some sort of display in my room...a wooden box with sheets meant to photograph the layout or something. Unfortunately, a move to bed number 2 told me that alas, the beds were simply the hardest, lowest quality beds I've ever slept in. After a sleepless night, I awoke with a sore back (and I'm in good shape in my early 30s without any problems usually) and confirmation from my coworker that his experience was the same. It was so bad, I decided to forgo my second night and take the red-eye home. I NEVER take red-eyes, but I figured if I'm not going to sleep at all, I might as well not sleep at all while on my way home early. Les mer

Good location and wonderful staff. They even upgraded us for our anniversary. The only fault I have is that the bathrooms are very outdated. The small shower was adequate but for a junior suite, I would have expected a tub or at least a larger shower and new tile. Your staff was very welcoming and they make up for the imperfections of the hotel. Grant […] and Molly took great care of us. Les mer
