    Great a little hotel really close to everything. Staff was super kind and friendly.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Great location. Walking distance to a lot of attractions. Lots of shops and restaurants nearby. We were not looking to be pampered. Just needed a place to sleep and it worked great.

    I've stayed here a lot before but I wonder if I'll stay here again, the front desk (man and woman) seemed like they were arguing. I figured that someone was probably smoking outside and the smell was wafting into the hotel, however, I was shocked to realize that the guy working the front desk was smoking inside the building! My bed was so hard it made me limp the first day after sleeping on it and the pillows were the small square pillows you find on a couch, I can't imagine its much more expensive to just get real pillows and do a deep clean within the rooms once in a while. I have always looked past the cleanliness and comfort because the location is so great but the customer service and the smoking and the lack of deep cleaning within the rooms is probably a no for me in the future. It's such a great hotel with so much potential, but it feels like they've kind of just given up and stopped doing regular maintenance. I used to love this hotel.

    The hotel was exactly what I needed, relatively inexpensive, close to where I needed to go, the parking garage was a fair distance away from the hotel, but reasonable in price. The building is old, but they made the most out of it, the room was clean and the staff was friendly.

    Location is perfect! Most everything you want to see is a few minutes walk or train ride away. Not many amenities are available if you plan to spend extended periods of time in the hotel, and it can get a bit noisy at night, but a great home base for all your city adventures. The food selection in the area is the true prize!

    No iron/ironing board, but great location and decent room/shower for the money!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Liked that it was in Chinatown. Property is ok, but a little dingy. Not like the pictures at all.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Lobby seems to be the only clean place. Easy check in. The rooms are not the best, there were stains on the floors, on the bed sheets, and on the walls. Not sure of what. Windows do not lock completely. Very loud. Beds are really hard.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    No fridge or microwave. Also no AC. There is a fan so I wasn't too hot. Very nice though. Clean and updated. Elevator was small and out dated though.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Perfect for anyone wanting to visit Chinatown. Well maintained older building. Staff is great with helpful information about local eats and more modest local eateries. Had to check out earlier than expected but cancelation of my reservation was no problem and refunded the balance with no problems. Can't say enough about how good my stay was.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Very friendly and helpful front office staff. Very neat and well maintained property. Small room yet very hygienic and comfortable. Located very near to all beautiful places and feeling very grateful for this.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Very fair room with good conditions for an extremely reasonable price

    It’s an old hotel. The room was clean. The bed was comfortable but small. They offer free coffee in the morning.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Súper lindo

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Basically no street parking, but many parking garages nearby with open spaces at reasonable prices. As far as the rooms, I paid a bit extra for the deluxe rooms and was not disappointed. There do exist more barebones rooms for a cheaper rate, but I'm always under the impression that you get what you pay for. All in all, if you're just looking for a place to store your things and lay your head in your travels, the Grant Plaza Hotel gets it done!

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Safe, convenient and fun location with good rooms

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Hotel was clean and staff was kind and helpful. The beds are very firm. Maybe too firm for most people. No AC in the rooms means you will need to open the windows if you run hot and the street noise can be very loud at night but what else can you expect for being in the middle of chinatown. Location was great being close to a lot of great food.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    If you just need an affordable, clean place to sleep at night then this place fits the bill. The rooms are very small and there are virtually no amenities, just a TV (with a relatively small amount of channels) and liquid soap and shampoo in the shower. No mini-fridge or microwave, but it DOES have its own bathroom, which most other similarly priced hotels in SF do not have. No breakfast, snacks, or drinks of any kind. Definitely not a place to while away the hours, but a good, affordable place to bed down after a full day of activities.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    The hotel is located in a pretty nice location, lots of places near by and restaurants. The hotel needs to be cleaned really well, it’s pretty dusty and not kept well. The hotel is also pretty worn down and there aren’t very many amenities to speak of, there’s an ice machine, vending machine, and the tv has a handful of working channel, no smart tv option. The bed is rock hard, at least for me and the shower is tiny but it’s a good price for what it is.
