The SceneJust blocks from Union Square and the Chinatown Gate, this boutique property offers a refreshing atmosphere. Rather than take up residence in an old structure, as most other hotels in the area have done, it made its home in a newly erected building. Its clean architecture puts a contemporary spin on San Francisco's signature Victorian style.
The Details
Inside, personalized touches abound, beginning with a bronze-cast statue of "Spring Awakening" in the lobby. The cozy guest rooms feature a palette of warm colors, which contrast strikingly with black and white photographs of local landmarks. Custom-made furnishings from Balinese wood add a colonial feel to the residential tone. CD/DVD systems and two telephones (one cordless) are a few of the tech-friendly amenities. Among the hotel's highlights is Vignette, serving French-influenced, California regional cuisine. Business niceties include an executive board room and a courtesy town car on weekdays to the Financial District.
Key Points
- Free High-Speed Internet

Insider Pages Reviews for Orchard Hotel
We enjoyed our stay immensely in this hotel. Staff were very accommodating and the bell man was very informative. We enjoyed the inclusive breakfast in the mornings before starting our day and the rooms were comfortable with a great bathroom. Rooms were very clean and price seemed very competitive. It is also close to shopping. Loved the free wireless internet!

We stayed at the Orchard Hotel after reading the reviews on Trip Advisor. The hotel is clean, quiet, with a friendly staff. The room was nothing special, but was fine. The only complaint I have is that the carpet in our room really needed to be cleaned, and the furnishings were a bit worn around the edges. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The location was within easy walking distance of Union Square and China Town. Overall our stay was pleasant if not extraordinary.

Not much curb appeal, but the rooms are superb. Spacious, Pan-Asian decor; DVD/CD players (with free DVD rentals); super-comfy platform beds.
Great staff; very friendly...they WILL remember your name!
Free breakfast buffet - nice touch.
You get a lot for the money here!
Pros: Location; spacious and well-appointed rooms; great staff
Cons: Halfway up Nob Hill...you better be in good shape!

Good value
by point
Great price, decent location, nice, clean rooms that were a decent size. Aveda products in the bathrooms, which were really big and spacious. Complimentary breakfast is very convenient, although it's very bare-bones and the juices tasted funny. The only glitch in our whole stay was the 75 cent local call someone seemed to have made from our room phone, although the front desk was happy to deal with that for us.
Pros: location, value
Cons: , views from lower floo

Wonderful Experience
by rymiller
The Orchard Hotel is a wonderful place to stay. I HIGHLY recommend you give this place a try. It is very reasonably priced, the staff and service is fantastic, the rooms are HUGE, comfortable, elegant, and new, they have free DVD rentals for the times you want to stay in and relax, and you can't ask for a better location! When my wife and I return to the City, we will only stay here from now on. Trust me, you can't go wrong!
Pros: Location, The Rooms, The Price
Cons: , ?, ?

GREAT FIND!
by dena
We found The Orchard Hotel on the internet and took a chance. This boutique hotel is a gem! The rooms are spotless and the bathrooms are beautiful! They give you a wonderful free breakfast every morning and the location could not be better. There is a trolley stop right oustide and the bellman are always ready to help you with directions or to hail you a taxi. If you are in the process of researching hotels, let the search end here!
Pros: Inexpensive, Great Location, Clean

Best Boutique Hotel in SF
by tdaya
Everything about the Orchard is first rate, from its location, to decor, to amenities, and its restaurant, Solea. Business or pleasure, doesn't matter..this hotel is upscale, comfortable, yet affordable. And the staff is actually friendly, and nice!! which may be tough to find around town, depending on your luck.
