Hotel Adagio

I have stayed at the Adagio many times and i will stay many more because of the welcoming friendly faces that greet me at checkin!

we recently stayed at this hotel and were so pleasantly surprised! it's smaller, very cozy and right next to union square. there's a lot of attention to detail, from the furniture and light fixtures to the aveda bath products. the concierge was extremely helpful in getting us info and dinner reservations. we didn't eat at their restaurant, but it was packed every night and so was the adjoining bar. in fact, it was busier than the W bar or frisson. no a/c, but you're in san fran., it's cold here ANYWAYS. we'll definitely be back.

Excellent decor, quiet room, great atmosphere and close to everything downtown. We loved this hotel!!

SF was experiencing a heatwave at the time and we found out a little late that the Adagio doesn't have air-conditioning. We had to leave the windows/drapes open to get air and were woken by the sun at dawn. The room set-up is another inconvenience. Furniture is not conveniently placed. The lobby reeks of fish?!?!

The service is also terrible. We asked for a bus map and were told that since SF changes their system so frequently they don't have maps. The worst part of our stay was the night before we checked out we requested a car to the airport and a 5:30am wake-up call that never came. When we mentioned it to the front desk twice as we checked out they basically blew us off. They weren't sure that our car was outside and weren't very concerned. Luckily it was and we got the hell out of there.
