San Francisco hotels near San Francisco Zen Center

Cons: No bells and whistles. This was much more like your standard, mid-grade Marriott than a 4-star experience. No fluffy robes, slippers, turn-down service, etc.

Cons: Huge line check in. Few staff, so took forever. Extra fee for fitness center. Housekeeping never came first day.

Cons: Thin walls, cold pool

Cons: We witnessed someone getting beat up by at least 4 individuals in an ally right across the street from the hotel. We still didn't feel unsafe in the hotel or around San Francisco, but maybe we should have? Other hotels wouldn't be immune to this problem either (to my best estimate). $6 waters in the room. No prices in the gift shop (yes I can afford it, but maybe I don't get the chips for $2.5 and just go for the $3.50 water instead or go to Starbucks that is attached to the hotel for $2 waters).

Cons: The room was older looking than I expected. I thought for the price of the room everything would be new. A little disappointing, but didn't change our plans. I didn't like paying $50.00 per day for parking in addition to the room rate.

Cons: Nothing

Cons: Fees for Internet and gym. Additional fees for more than two adults.

Cons: This part of the city sadly has many, many homeless people around. Also, some shady characters.

Cons: insufficient light in bathroom room 1434 having to pay for internet

Cons: wifi too slow to do work

Cons: Having a city view room and being on the 6th floor. Overlooking a rooftop. Being put on the sixth floor and being asked if I would like an upgrade.

Cons: Room was SMALL! I wouldn't stay there again!

Cons: Funny smell on the covers

Cons: In terms of the neighborhood, the Tenderloin is right next to Uniom Square, has an abundance of homeless people. The bathroom only has a glass sliding door and is not a separate room, and therefore has less privacy. Room could have been slightly bigger.

Cons: Expensive parking but what can you do….

Cons: Understaffed and overwhelmed registration desk

Cons: Valet parking and hotel entrance around the back of the building. Both the party we were meeting and us pulled up front to what looked like the front of the hotel, was nothing to indicate where to go. Some signage would be helpful. Great workout area but having to pay an additional $25 to use felt excessive.

Cons: I had a queen room, very small No remote control for the TV Long, long checkin/check out process. Gym in not complimentary

Cons: Expensive vehicle stay rate. Small room

Cons: fees for everything including gym and even moving anything in the mini bar. grout in shower old and stained, toilet off center and wiggled.

Cons: That might be a bit noisy as the fire department likes to turn on the sound, and people like to sound the horn in San Francisco, but they do it everywhere and anytime.

Cons: Don’t charge for everything extra. Gym, water, garage, etc.

Cons: The neighborhood is not my favorite but it’s very convenient

Cons: The movie rentals were expensive and did not have many options. It would have been nice if the rooms included a Blu Ray player.

Cons: Nothing.

Cons: As with all hotels, it could've been a bit cheaper but it's a standard rate with all things considered.

Cons: This is not an inexpensive hotel yet we were asked to pay 25$ to use the gym and pool. I find this ridiculous since we were only going to use it for 1 hour. The hotel is poorly unkept and it's very visibly run down. The staff is friendly and accommodating. I wouldn't stay here again because it's not worth the expense.

Cons: Expensive valet parking...cheaper across the street but this wasn’t explained until check out and had to drive several blocks to get into the hotel valley due to one way streets spat that point we wouldn’t have wanted go through that again to get to the other garage.

Cons: The pool was only available as part of the health club which annoyed me.

Cons: They charge for use of the gym and if you arrive before 3pm they will charge you $30 for early check in.

Cons: They charge you extra for the health club, which is not that great - I found that to be offensive!

Cons: Pillows and beds were very uncomfortable.

Cons: Valet was very expensive, They did not warn about the price up front. They were insistent we took a mini bar key even tho we didn't want one. no nightlife around the location.

Cons: Lack of facilities no hotel bar or estaurants although there are independent providers attached to hotel. No pool.

Cons: None

Cons: Unresponsive staff. Examples: (1) concierge and room service rang out after trying repeatedly reach them for 10 and 15 minutes; (2) waitstaff in bar/dining area was slow and inattentive; (3) we needed 2 extra blankets and they initially resisted until we convinced them we were using all the blankets in the room and were still cold; (4) the food and beverages were overpriced and barely mediocre.

Cons: The receptionist lied to me about the parking fee Later the hotel charge me 75 USD for overnight parking

Cons: Price a bit high, bathroom could use renovation (but was perfectly functional). A light in the closet would be very helpful.

Cons: The total cost to park

Cons: I wish that the rooms were a little bit bigger

Cons: Lack of aesthetics, just tired and drab. Parking is just ok

Cons: Parking was expensive and inconvenient

Cons: You're still downtown, so you walk out and it's a lot of homeless and the streets smell of urine, bad. The hotel staff is in no hurry for anything. Toom service took 1.5-2 hours and we even had a package delivered and they never bothered to bring it up. After three hours we told them forget it we'll get it ourselves. Cleaning staff is super nice. They were doing construction there so don't bother trying to nap during the day, because they were jack hammering the lobby. For the money I think there's better.

Cons: Pricey but nothing is free right?

Cons: Idk

Cons: Nothing

Cons: I went to check into my room after having lunch. I said I would meet a coworker there. I got there and our waitress came out and talked to me in a very loud voice saying that none of us had paid for lunch, and that it was going to come out of her salary, and that I had to give her my charge card and pay for all the lunches. I told her that was not so as I saw each of us settle up our tabs. I turned around to leave and went down the escalator after I saw my friend was not there and got another text that he was downstairs. She followed me downstairs loudly saying that we had not paid our bills and that she was going to call security. At the bottom of the escalator she found security. They all followed me back upstairs and by then my friend that I was supposed to meet joined us. I was a bit upset because I knew we all paid our bills. He was pretty calm and said what will it take to just get this taken care of for now so we can meet our friends for dinner and will come back later. She just kept insisting there was nothing that could be done except to pay for all three lunches. It was also interesting that as soon as I got to my room there was a phone call verifying that I was just eating in the restaurant and I still wonder if that was not part of the scam. We finally got through to a manager. After explaining the story again, she went over to a register and looked and found all three of our signed receipts for lunch. She admitted that I should never have been treated like that and guess what, all of our lunches are comped on her! Although it was very unnerving, everything turned out well and the hotel room was just fine.

Cons: Room needs renovation. Restroom is small, couldn't find light switch when we get in the room. Booked king bed room and was given a double bed room, staff told us nothing they could do. They did give us some credit but only end up buying some water, because there is none in the room.

Cons: For the price that you pay, the gym should should have a more equipment.

Cons: A little bit noise whether stay in high floor or in low floor, and the bathroom is too small for a 4 star hotel.

Cons: Staff gave me key to wrong room upon check-in. The rooms have seen better days...seem a bit beat-up. The tile on the lobby floors and in elevators was obviously installed before suitcases with wheels became common.

Cons: Mattress was uncomfortable , seemed to cause backache . Space was congested

Cons: The beds were not comfortable.

Cons: The worst hotel experience I've ever had. Even though I did book at the last moment, there was nothing about the hotel to justify a rate of 200 a night. A creepy, worn hotel. A long, darkened hallway leading to a room next to a darkened stairwell, whose door I could barely fit through. The room was small and adequate. Worn carpet, fixtures Small, awkwardly laid out bathroom. Other than the location I can't think of anything to recommend this hotel.

Cons: Bed was a little too soft for my comfort. Views from windows not impressive.

Cons: the room was very small and it sounded like people were moving furniture above me all the time.

Cons: * Old Hotel * Voices of noise and nuisance from outside the hotel * the bathroom it is small

Cons: Hotel Monaco used to be one of my fav hotels in SF. This new Marker is horrible. They closed the spa, breakfast is extra charge. Parking costs 58 dollars. Short on staff to take phone calls. Take your business somewhere else.

Cons: Hidden Fees!!!! They charge hidden "amenity" fees at check out. Not an honest business.

Cons: It would be really helpful to have coffee makers in the room or room service -- there is coffee in the lobby, but if you are traveling with kids or have an early morning, it is useful to have it in your room. I didn't care for the fact that the water bottles in the room had price tags. It would also be nice if the wine service rotated wines.
