The location, directly by the Chinatown gates, was just right because it makes the hotel one of the easiest to find in the city. It was a quick walk from the hotel to the 30 bus which you can take to skip the Chinatown mobs and get to other parts of the city. When we arrived on Thursday late afternoon,... more

My husband and I stayed at Triton over Memorial Day weekend. Normally when in San Francisco we stay at my in-laws, but they were having some work done at their place so we got a hotel instead. We decided on a Kimpton Hotel due to the great experiences we have had with them in the past, and Hotel Triton was... more

I took a 4-day weekend getaway to San Francisco in April 2009. Doing various web searches for budget-style hotels (I'm typically a budget traveler, even staying in hostels around the world), I found the Hotel Triton to have an incredible sale. For ~$100 / night, I figure I couldn't go wrong considering the truly great location in central S.F. I... more

Adorable! Loved the chic decor and how glamorous -- yet cozy and comforted -- I felt in my luxurious, hotel-supplied animal-print robe following a hot shower and a quick forage through the honor bar (it'd been a trying day!). No, the rooms aren't big but just right for my daughter and I. No view from our room (tiny windows facing... more

Our exerience at the Triton was unreservedly a good one. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful without being horribly pushy/over-familiar. We took advantage of the free tea and coffee in the morning (which was a real bonus to anyone who finds Starbucks coffee weak and unpleasant) but were always too busy to partake of the evening wine tasting. Our... more

This was my first time staying at a Kimpton and I had been warned that rooms tended to be small, so I wasn't surprised. It is located in an old building which accounts for the size of the room. We had a queen bed and the room was clean and comfortable. The bathroom was clean with plenty of towels. The... more

You can't ask for a better location than the Triton - right across from Chinatown Gate! Too bad you couldn't see it from my room, which looked out into an ugly airwell festooned with pigeon netting. In window air conditioning units blocked the view - not a bad thing - but also meant that the airwell was noisy all night... more

This was my first time in San Francisco and I couldn't have stayed anywhere better. Great location, two blocks from Union Square, across the street from Chinatown, and a twenty minute walk to the Wharf area. Very safe, spotlessly clean, friendly and helpful staff. My room was one of the Zen Dens, which was fun and colourful and comfortable and... more

The room was small and run-down a bit, but everything was clean. The location is good and the front desk staff were helpful. I got a good price on the room and would definitely recommend if that price was available again. more
