Best hotels in Civic Center (San Francisco)
San Francisco Proper Hotel is one of the more exciting and sophisticated Starwood properties in the City by the Bay. Its central location, fabulous beds, and nice in-room amenities make the older neighborhood worth the stay. Even Forbes and Travel & Leisure say it’s the city’s hippest hotel. The Proper is located on the corner of Market and McAllister streets in a historic flatiron building that was built in 1904. A stay at the hotel allows for convenient city tourism and is a quick walk to the BART and a short drive to the freeways. However, it’s only a short walk to the Civic Center, the San Francisco Symphony, the San Francisco Opera and the offices of several major tech firms, including Twitter. Guests and locals alike come to the hotel for the variety and selection of bars and restaurants under one roof. The day begins at La Bande for a delicious and easy breakfast, Villon provides a great lunch, and Charmaine’s offers a nice dinner with panoramic rooftop views. Other on-site amenities include a fitness room and multiple meeting spaces with loads of convenient features. The 131 ultrachic rooms and suites are tailored to fit the demands of a modern city traveler. The cloud-like beds are always the number one hit with guests and extras like curated minibars come in a close second. Smart-TVs and WiFi come standard, as does designer toiletries. Rooms range in sizes and amenities, and some offer sofas and bunk beds while Suites offer city views.

Few cities in the world have captured the imagination of visitors like San Francisco. Whether it was the gold rush in the 19th century or immigrants in the 20th century to tech entrepreneurs in the 21st, San Francisco is a small tract of land that has always been big on ideas. To see the American dream, one must see San Francisco, this city has amazing diversity of culture, cuisine, and ideas. When you stay at Sleep Over Sauce, you are staying in one of the great cauldrons of San Francisco’s creativity, the Hayes Valley. Sleep Over Sauce is as unique as it sounds. This boutique hotel is only 9 rooms large, so the demand for it is extensive. However, its quaintness is also an advantage, plan out your vacation by checking the hotel’s availability. Once you book the hotel, you’ll be amazed how close it is to the iconic Castro District. You can walk to The Castro and get the flavor of one of America’s great civil rights projects and communities. Nearby is the Haight-Ashbury District along with Golden Gate Park. A trolley ride brings you to the east side of the city to see some of the post-card sites that everyone knows like the Transamerica building and Chinatown. Dining in San Francisco is a journey for all palettes. With a hodgepodge of different cultures, you can get authentic Chinese food in Chinatown and some of the best ramen in the western hemisphere when you visit Japantown. Staying at Sleep Over Sauce is a unique way to experience one of America’s unique cities, book your stay today.

Cons: If you're a light sleeper, DO NOT stay here. Street is extremely busy most of the time, windows/walls didn't block any sound. It was also a little odd that the bartender/bar was also the front desk so if you needed something you had to call the bar.

Stay in luxurious comfort in the heart of Hayes Valley at Inn at the Opera. San Francisco is steeped in history, featuring many buildings with compelling backstories, including this mid-city gem. Originally a temporary residence for visiting opera stars, Inn at the Opera was transformed into a seven-story, 48-room boutique hotel, maintaining the Old World European feel of the original building's style, from the salon-style lobby to individually decorated suites. It's centrally located in the epicenter of the city's most historic cultural district, mere steps from Davies Symphony Hall, Civic Center and the Opera House. Inn at the Opera beautifully balances the old and the new, with classic design and contemporary essentials. Suites feature turn-of-the-century damask bedspreads, music-themed, vintage-inspired artwork, bistro tables and stately armoires alongside flat-panel televisions, DVD players, personal refrigerators, data ports, free WiFi and other modern conveniences. Common areas feature antique furnishings as well as musical instruments, honoring the building's unique history. Musical themes continue throughout the hotel, from the lobby decor to the names of the guest suites. Inn at the Opera is home to Pläj, an exciting and delicious Scandinavian-inspired bar and restaurant helmed by Chef Roberth Sundell. Guests can also enjoy daily continental breakfasts as well as fresh-baked cookies every day in the hotel lobby. Suites at the Inn at the Opera are spacious and comfortable, with options for up to four guests. Concerto and Ballet suites are ideal for couples as well as solo travelers; Opera and Symphony suites accomodate families comfortably, with sofa beds, kitchenettes and full dining areas.

Pros: The location near the City hall and the Opera.
Cons: I was traveling for work and had a 6 nights stay at Inn at the Opera. Even though that credit card (Business) was given prior to my trip the hotel insisted on taking the amount of 2130 USD from my private credit card. The travel agency that booked my stay try to solve that with the hotel with no luck, because Inn at the Opera refused to use the business credit card. The worst was that i tried to speak with a supervisor because it was clear that reception couldn't help and the answer i was given was that he was a very busy man. I found that attitude totally direspectful. The room was quite small for the American standards, with old and heavy furnitures. The room was constantly humid. Even though i stayed there for six nights the bedsheets were never changed. The toilet-articles were never replaced with new even though i demonstratively left the little that left from the soap to be seen and replaced. The hotel lacks amenities, they offer complimentary breakfast which is good but having in mind the outrageous high price a room cost per night ‘’complementary’’ sounds funny.

3.8 Mediocre
Pros: - Safety: there was a total of 3 doors to unlock to get to our room - The neighborhood is lively even though expensive (with plenty of restaurants & bars).
Cons: - One morning, the staff listened to loud music from 8am to 1pm & didn't stop in spite of our complaints (there seems to be a patio downstairs used by the staff). We could even hear a lady sing and whistle (walls are paper thin). - Despite several reminders, they forgot to call our cab for the airport as the clerk who was supposed to work that morning didn't show up!! - Breakfast: the room is quite small and there was no available seat when we arrived, we had to stand like idiots for a couple of minutes in the middle of the room. Plus the tables aren't individual, but must be shared: be prepared for breakfast with strangers. - Breakfast was $10/person but was quite limited. - The staff wasn't nice. - Don't get fooled by the nice pictures on their website, our room was located in another building in the back and clearly it wasn't that great looking. - 3 rooms share a bathroom: OKAY, BUT there was no sink in each room unlike some pictures suggested it. - The shared bathroom is only deeply cleaned once a week, meaning that the shower is only cleaned once a week! - They provide shampoo and conditioner in the shower, but there's no liquid soap for the sink. So every time you need to use the toilet, don't forget to bring your bar of soap (not convenient at all!).

Pros: The location was perfect, right next to a buzzing high street with lots to offer and a walk from golden gate park.
Cons: Room was dingy and we always felt like we had to wear shoes in the room. Showers were ok but again always took shower shoes.

Bedding and towels very stained, not pleasant.

3.3 Mediocre
Pros: I liked that there were not any bed bugs.
Cons: The gentleman who checked me in repeatedly made creepy comments about my age when checking me in and asked who I was staying with etc. It felt very intrusive and disturbed me for the rest of my stay. Additionally, there we no warning prior to our stay that the area is targeted for Smash and Grab. We were warned thankfully by people living in the area however the hotel staff gave us no warning even when asked directly where we should park. This would have been invaluable knowledge prior to our stay... we had to lug literally EVERYthing in our car to the hotel room up a flight of stairs. The shower was cold. The place stunk of cleaning product. The room was DIRTY. The sheets were dirty(stained... blood... YUCK.... the counter was covered in crumbs. The restroom was disgusting as well.
8.8 Excellent
Pros: Cozy. They cleaned the bathrooms multiple times throughout the day and have 24 hour service. I'd stay here again
Cons: The shuttle you can pay for to take you to the airport took over an hour to arrive. I thought we were going to miss our flight.
7.5 Good
Pros: The location
Cons: Shared bathrooms and room was extremely small
