we had a lovely stay in the Rex which is around the corner from Union Square so there is good access to nightlife and shopping and the streetcars stop at the corner of Sutter Street so access to the Fishermans Wharf is also really easy. The rooms were nice and were spotlessly clean with very comfortable beds and there was... more

We had 2 days left of our trip and spent these in San Fransico. The staff at the hotel are great and the parking service makes life very easy. There is also a great cafe 2 doors down which serves a lovely breakfast. We will definitely stay there again. They also offer complimentary wine some nights too!! more

My husband and I stayed here recently and we really have mixed feelings about this hotel. We reached Hotel Rex after a nine hour drive and was welcomed by their friendly staff. We walked into our room and realized it was a bit warm but thought it could just be us and spotted the a/c switch so we thought to... more

I stayed at Hotel Rex while attending a conference at a bigger, much more expensive hotel a mile or so away in the financial district. I really liked the Rex's large rooms, generous sized baths, and atmosphere. My room near the back on the 3rd floor was very quiet. The staff was friendly and helpful. The location is great with... more

Hotel Rex is part of the Californial "Joie de vivre" collection of boutique hotels. I have stayed in these boutique hotels throughout San Francisco.

The room was a very good size with very nice amenities. You could tell it's been recently updated because everything was... more

The Hotel Rex is always my first choice when traveling to San Francisco (unless I need to stat closer to the bay), and I've stayed there many times now. The staff is the best anywhere, the hotel is comfortable, and the location is great. The rooms are fairly large for SF and the beds are comfortable, although I was told... more

Booking computer a bit quirky, but the excellent staff soon sorted the problem out. Room was clean and well appointed, although a coffee machine would have been handy. No problem though as there are coffee shops all round the block. The food at the hotel is good and reasonably priced. There are lots of altrnative eating places around the block. more

Pluses: Boutique hotel with a good price, reasonably good location, interesting decor and very friendly and helpful staff. Minus: Rooms (which admitteldy were clean and reasonably well appounted) were TINY! more
