Stayed at Larkspur for one night on business trip. (small boutique hotel off Union Square). Location is excellent - close to shopping and restaurants. Staff is attentive and very professional. Room was one of the smallest rooms I've ever stayed in - with the smallest bathroom I've ever seen. Its fine for one person on a short visit but I'd... more

We went to San Francisco the 11th of June and we stayed on the Larkspur Hotel for 13 nights. I don´t regret I booked this hotel. We came all the way from Sweden so we wanted to stay a long time in a good hotel and the hotel was great! The location was nice, just a half block from the... more

We stayed at the Cartwright for 6 nights in May. This hotel is in a great location for Union Square, Chinatown, and cable cars to Fishermans Wharf and the Ferry Building (California line). We got the BART from the airport and walked up Powell with our cases, it's only a slight incline to Sutter. Like most reviews, the rooms are... more

The hotel was undergoing renovations during our stay and the elevator was often out of order or occupied by workmen. This was rather annoying, but not our major complaint. The bed was very uncomfortable - after three nights my husband and I were rather sore and sleep-deprived. Our room shared a door with the next room and we could clearly... more

We booked online for this hotel, based on reviews on here and from friends and we would highly recommend this hotel to others IF: - You don't mind small clean washrooms within your room - You appreciate smaller botique hotels with heaps of character and charm - You enjoy listening to the distant sound of the cable-cars when you wake... more

I chose this hotel because of the reviews that menioned how good the... more

Yes, the Cartwright is undergoing renovations. Yes the bathrooms are small. The noise only occurs during working hours during the week and we only noticed it once. The bathroom is a little small but the shower was fantastic. The Cartwright is a small, old hotel but a very warm and welcoming place. The staff were all very nice and accommodating,... more

My husband and I stayed at The Cartwright for a business meeting. We had just come from Napa, so we had high expectations! They were certainly met. Even though there was construction going on, we really didn't feel bothered by it. I loved the wine hour every evening-- we always made sure to be back at the hotel in time... more

Stayed at the Cartwright for 4 nights and found the location to be great. One block from Union Square, close to all the shops restaurants and cable car. Rooms are very similar to a European style room, small bed, small bathroom, but not a huge issue since we spent very little time in the room anyway. Renovations are still going... more
