On the plus side: wonderful staff. Some lived near the hotel and their knowledge of nearby restaurants was excellent. Free internet, with sufficient bandwidth, is also nice. You have to ask for a coffee maker, but it is also free, although it comes with only one regular coffee and one decaf, so you have to call a second time for... More

Was in San Francisco with husband and two sons (age 15 and 12) for a few days. The service here is excellent. Very friendly and helpful and even acknowledge us by name after our outings. We stayed on the 6th floor in a double-double deluxe. Although I thought it would be cramped with all of us in one room, the... More

The Hotel Monaco is located 3 blocks from Union Square central and is in the middle of a ton of restaurants and shopping. Per previous reviews taxi fare from SFO is about $45 but you also have the choice of spending $17 for a group van. Although the area is near the Tenderloin on the back side I never had... More

This was our 4th time in San Francisco and 3rd time at the Monaco, which is a consistently great boutique hotel. That being said, there are lots of other great boutique hotels in San Francisco that are in much better locations. The hotel is right on the border of an iffy neighborhood, you have to go right out the door... More

When we arrived they were so nice and gave us a complimentary upgrade to a suite as we were celebrating a birthday. The room was clean and funky. The hotel has complimentary bikes that we borrowed and rode... More

The hotel is just a couple blocks from Union Square & trolleys but a few blocks from the subway. When we arrived at the airport I bought Muni... More

We make a point of looking for Hotel Monacos, and this one was a great choice. We enjoy the general Kimpton quality, but with a boutique spunk that doesn't seem like a big chain. The staff was super friendly and as helpful as needed, and the property is a nice size. The location is great -- just a couple of... More
