The lobby was understated and elegant, but still modern. Busts of animals and people provided quirky decoration pieces as well as an enormous wooden table. There was ambient music playing which bounced of the walls and into my cerebellum instantly putting me at ease. We had a renovated room on the fifth floor with a great view of the interesting... more

During a three-week USA holiday, we booked into Hotel Vertigo for two nights after seeing some cheap rates online. As the rates were so cheap we weren't expecting much, so were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. The hotel was undergoing renovations, so the lobby was much more impressive than our unrenovated room. The rooms themselves were small and dated, but... more

This hotel has only recently acquired the name "Vertigo" as its new owners are giving it a facelift and celebrating its part in the 1958 film of the same name. We were staying at another hotel in the area, and initially just called at the Vertigo to visit the lobby and see this piece of movie history. The staff were... more

We had been moving around America for nearly a month, and finished our trip at the Vertigo in SF. We started our trip in SF at the Diva, which is part of the same group, Personality Hotels. We liked the Diva (see review) better than the Vertigo. After close on a month travelling, we had tons of baggage. As we... more

Like the main character of the Hitchcock film of the same name, Hotel Vertigo is not quite what it appears to be. Positioning itself as a hip boutique hotel and trading on the fact that it was used as one of the locations in the film Vertigo, the reality is that the hotel is far from living up to its... more

We found this hotel through Tripadvisor and booked a renovated room for 3 nights. As I read the reviews, we were well aware of some ongoing renovations, but these didn't bother us at all during our stay. The room was exactly as expected, with its retro design features. But although it was only renovated a few months ago, some furniture... more

This is a good hotel in a good location (15-minute walk from Union Square, and about 20-25 from Grace Cathedral). The Hitchcock connections are everywhere, from the loops of "Vertigo" and "Rear Window" to the thank-you note from Kim Novak in the lobby. The front desk staff can tell you where the main landmarks, buildings, and streets in "Vertigo" are.... more

As a 29-year-old couple we stayed 4 nights at the Vertigo in a newly renovated room. And it was really great! Renovation is still ongoing, but we did not really notice neither disturbed. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful! Rooms are great! Location is just a 5 min walk from Union Square and not so loud and crowded as downtown.... more
