Excellent staff on premises, clean rooms and good security. It has an old time San Francisco feel to it and is located just outside of China Town and a couple blocks from Union Square and about the same from the Financial District. The prices can not be beat for the quality of the Hotel. A continental breakfast would be a... more

Great location, at entrance to Chinatown, block away from Prada and Coach. Not far from Fisherman's Wharf/Pier 39. You can walk to Market and get a cablecar or muni. We were out and about seeing the city, so small room didn't bother us. Clean with recently renovated bath. Front desk staff always helpful. Noisy at night--our room faced an alley... more

Stayed at the Baldwin first week of Nov '09 for two short visits. Rooms were spacious meticulously clean and good beds (we had two queens). Only problem was the temporary construction going on next door and the mid-night garbage pickups. After a tour of Big Sur we returned for a night prior to our departure back home. Very good for... more

Frankly, I have no idea why the Baldwin doesn't charge more per night (that's not a suggestion, management!). Given the location, it's absolutely impossible to imagine a better deal. The rooms are simple, but comfortable, clean, well-maintained. The staff is courteous and helpful. I'll be back. The only thing I would have wanted that I didn't get was free internet... more

This is the third time I've stayed at the Baldwin Hotel. The location is excellent, close to Union Square, Chinatown, and the Financial District. Staff is very helpful, the rooms are clean and comfortable. more

My husband and I stayed here for three nights. The Baldwin hotel is in a good location (right outside the Chinatown gate) and as far as the price goes, you can't do much better! I think I should say that this hotel is pretty basic. You have a bed, a bathroom, a TV. That's about it. That having been said,... more

My husband goes to a conference once a year in San Francisco and if the conference is near Union Square, we always like to stay at the Baldwin Hotel. The location is very convenient and the place is great for the price. I am very picky about cleanliness and I feel the Baldwin lives up to my standards. We stayed... more

We stayed during the Chinese New Years Celebration - year of the OX. The Baldwin Hotel was just perfect. We had 4 reservations with other familiy members and we were all happy with our stay. The rooms are exceptionally clean and very comfortable. The staff members were always willing to help with our needs. Hotel stay is just hop and... more

My partner and I stayed at The Baldwin for 2 nights which we booked after reading good reviews on here. The room was plenty big enough for our needs and we were overlooking a street which was nice. I'd read reviews about the lift being noisy but apart from my partner getting stuck half in and half out on our... more
