Location was good and Rooms had early 20th century charm. Rating would've been better had they been able to accommodate our request for a room with two beds - which is what we thought the reservation was for. Roll away bed was delivered - which we were charged for - and not comfortable. Bathroom was recently remodeled and a nice... More

I stayed one night and the rate was very high due to an event. The hotel is quaint but being a historic hotel it did have some issues. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. The room was small, but it had furniture that made the room comfortable. Be aware, the room does not have air conditioning and does... More

i read the reviews before i booked the hotel and what a shock when i arrived! Ok i admit that i book one of the cheapest 3-star hotel around ($93USD). But i remember i had a better room staying at cheap 0-star hostel in Mexico. The carpet, wall paper, windows and fixtures were all in bad shape. Our room has... More

This was not our usual pleasure stay in San Francisco. A family member was having cancer surgery at UCSF and we wanted something affordable and close by. Our stay was for 2 nights in a "Queen Victorian" room and it was just as advertised and exceeded our expectations. The room was very clean, mattress comfortable, bathroom was handicapped accessible so... More

This hotel is strictly for people who are looking for an antique Victorian feel to their stay. The elevator for instance took forever to take us to our floor and back down. The upholstery looked rather old but thankfully wasn't smelly or dirty. The bathroom was rather modern compared to the rest of the room which was also quite small.... More

When in San Francisco we stay at The Hotel Majestic. While perhaps a little tired, this one-hundred and ten year old gem more than makes up for it in charm and decor. The various rooms and public places are furnished with period pieces and prints which lend to an ambiance of a time gone by. While we usually dine at... More

My two girlfriends and I spent one night at the Majestic. Our room had two tiny twin beds, one of which had a blood stain on the comforter. Both beds had many unidentifiable stains on the pillows and comforters. Our roll-away bed had stained sheets. The toilet did not flush and was running all night. The wardrobe was dusty and... More

Yes it is true…the hotel is quite old, but it has a lot of character as well. As soon as you check in you will start a time journey back to the beginning of the 20th century. It seemed that even the service guys do not use computers. The only modern thing in the room was a nice flat-screen TV.... More

Friendly staff and willing to accommodate our needs. The Junior Queen Suite on the corner of the 2nd floor overlooking the intersection of Gough and Sutter was amazing. It had the charm and feel of the time period it was built. Room service was excellent and the food was delicious. We stayed there for 4 days in celebration of my... More
