Edwardian Hotel

I had stayed here previously and was disappointed the amenities and bathroom (room 15). However, this time (room 35) was considerably better.

The room itself was very clean. However, we were not informed in advance that the toilet and shower facilities were not located inside the room. Instead, the toilet and bathroom were separate from each other and required keys to access. This arrangement was unexpected and made our stay uncomfortable. Lastly, there was no parking available, and there was no ice provided.

The only positive thing i can say is that the Edwardian is safe, and reasonably affordable. Unless you’re in a pinch, I would recommend you stay somewhere else.

The Edwardian rooms/bathroom were super clean. This is a no frills basic room. Do not expect anything more: no extra pillows, no extra blankets. TV did not work. No in room coffee machine, no paper cups, no plastic cups. Do not expect even a good morning front the front desk: staff as the front desk staff could care less whether you stayed with them or not. Also the Edwardian does not have any parking. Parking requires distanced walking. It is super clean and that is all this hotel can offer. If you are handicapped it is best to avoid this hotel. But for a one night stay, the cost is good in San Francisco;. However, I learned my lesson well.

Good

Location, coffee, tea, hot water, 1 of the 3 staff. He was extremely friendly and helpful. The map, instructions tips wefe great. He behaved more like a concierge. The other two staff were less friendly and helpful. The elevator was quirky--but fun!

Passable

Location Not clean, very unfriendly staff, poor facilities, heater was not working, smelly

The mattress is soft but the place exceeded my expectations, it has the basics you need: free wifi, refillable water, dryer.

Friendly, helpful staff. Main light in room did not work until checkout, no AC to deal with heat, room filled with mosquitoes and/or other bugs that left my arms/stomach covered in bites.

Superb

Good location, near bus stop, Bart and restaurants. The room was old but very clean with new flooring. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. My first room was supposedly an upgraded room. It was small with no place to put your suitcase or hang clothing, and no chest of drawers. It had no desk or chair. Just a bed and one nightstand. The window (on the 4th floor) had no lock or screen and was low enough to fall out of. The area is quite noisy until 10pm due to Bart and buses then it was very quiet. The bathroom had a shower, a tiny shelf for toiletries and the sink was miniscule. The TV would not connect to the internet. After two days I was moved to a new room. My second room was larger. The TV worked. It had a huge bathroom with a jetted tub but still no where for toiletries. The room had a rolling rack for hanging clothing, no chest of drawers and one nightstand. One bathroom window opened, had no screen and was low enough to crawl out of, but it did have a lock. The biggest problem is the elevator. It is located in a narrow hallway so access is limited. The door is very heavy and the inside gate is hard to keep open without latching it. Trying to get a walker and luggage inside was very hard. The stairs are steep so not an option if you use a walker.

It’s really only the move if you need something cheap and viable. No specific complaints but the lobby is basically a closet and then it’s just right stairs to the small quarters with low quality bathrooms and low noise protection. That being said it was an affordable place for what we needed and nothing was broken. Basically your bare minimum lodging. Keys are physical metal keys and the front door locks with them too.

Enjoyed the stay at the Edwardian. It’s no frills but the bed was comfortable, room was adequate size (with private bathroom a big plus, not a given in SF). Neighborhood felt a bit transitional but not terrible and it’s handy being right on Market St. The metro was fairly close and there was a streetcar stop right out the door.

Nothing. Crappy part of town. Crappy property. I booked this in a hurry because I have to travel the next day. I booked here for 4 nights. Room was cold. Heating wasn't working. Staff said there's nothing they could do -- maintenance had already left for the day. I decided to move to another hotel. Got charge for one night even though I just just there a couple of hours.

Old school, no frills, sheets and towels smell great.

Convenient location to bus / tram stops. Clean. Comfy bed

Hotel employee was very nice and professional

Passable

Lots of charm.. rooms are small and could use a desk ? Coffe maker .. Restaurant's around are very good , clean and quiet

Pleasant

Everything including room and very clean. The homeless outside but its not terrible and out of the hotels hands

Very good

Staff were nice. Room barely has a window! Not a comfy place to work from, no desk.

The staff was very accommodating, especially with respect to holding luggage beyond the checkout time. The room was clean, and the bed was very comfortable. Despite being on a potentially noisy street, all was quiet within the room. The small elevator worked like a charm. The K-cups of coffee in the lobby was a welcome plus. The only downside that could be easily corrected would be some sort of seating in the room, other than the bed. There was space in our room for a small bench that could also serve as a spot to place luggage rather than just on the floor.

Some hairs on the pillow...... and the room was way smaller than I thought it would be but it was in the perfect location and I ended having a great stay!

Room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The only thing that would be helpful is disposable cups.

The room was devoid of decoration, the window opened to a brick wall, disinfect smell was so strong that we had trouble sleeping. We had paid 250 for a prison cell with attached bath.

Rooms are small and lack storage space but have everything you could want, microwave, TV etc. Clean and tidy with very helpful and friendly staff, though the Roku TV takes a bit of getting used to.

Building is old but very clean. Furnace was broken but front desk was able to provide with a space heater.

We didn't stay here due to lack of functioning smoke alarms in room and were supposed to get a refund that we haven't yet received.

First night The first night I wake up to toilet exploding Took an hour to fix it I suggested different room I’ll pay for it Nothing was done I want a different room I’ll pay for it I don’t wanna cancel the room Please don’t cancel the room

I never stayed at the Edwardian hotel because my payment didn't go through as far as the processing I would have liked too but it just wasn't meant to be. It just wasn't meant to be for this one.

Great value. Room was clean and staff very attentive.

Said it had a private bathroom but did not.

Single glazed windows made the room cold and noisy. No table or chair in the standard room.

The Edwardian was perfect for my needs. The room and bathroom were clean and the location was excellent.

This was a percent location for a single male traveling for photography, site seeing and food. The access to every type of mass transit right at the door step was cherry on top. My room was quiet and clean. While the room temperatures did swing throughout my visit, I was never uncomfortable due to warm blankets and a bed side fan being provided. The staff were also very friendly.

Clean. Very sparsely furnished. Public transportation nearby that we used to get to all attractions, but most attractions were far from this place.

The room was kept very clean and was serviced every day. Towels were changed regularly. The location is ideal and in spite of being on on of the main streets in San Francisco noise levels were not too bad. My room was towards the back but I imagine the rooms at the front are much noisier.

Room was a little small, but had a nice bathtub. Had coffee and tea at the front desk. Stayed for hardly strictly. Great price, well located and safe. Will be staying again next time I visit San Francisco.

Love the simple easy stay. I don’t need frills or anything just a clean friendly place to lay my head. It was excellent. No ac but it was still comfortable.

Clean room

An older hotel. Needs some updating. Unfortunately, my room didn't have a bathroom in the same room. The toilet room and shower (separate rooms) were across the hall. That was not mentioned in my reservation. Not happy about that.

Clean rooms

Noisy, poor location, no extra circulars

The bathroom was nice enough, but the shower was poor, not strong at all. Also if you open the window even a crack at the bottom, people could easily see you sat on the toilet?! Odd design for a bathroom. It was hot upon arrival and there was no fan. Very very loud on a Saturday night due to the location and not able to leave the window open Whilst we got sleep and it was a base for us, it wasn’t luxury whatsoever and we would never stay again, sorry!!

Well located, affordable clean place, with few amenities but good proximity to Hayes St.

There’s a quaint charm to the hotel overall, but it isn’t. The Ritz has no pretension of being that it’s surprisingly quiet though it’s right off of market Street. I enjoyed my room and would certainly stay there again.

The room was stuffy because it seems like other guests were smoking inside, but it felt unsafe to leave windows open and air out the room at night. The lady that worked at the front desk was amazing, but you were lucky to get a “hello” back from the rest of them. It’s ok on a budget, but wouldn’t stay there again.

This was a good lodging selection to keep costs down for project. The area is so-so; convenient to public transport but also adjacent to some of the rougher areas of San Fran. I was told none of the rooms have desks. This might be the only reason I would consider staying elsewhere, but the en-suite bathroom unit I stayed in was clean and adequate. Note no AC; no screens on windows. (one in bathroom; one in bedroom)

Staff

There is no parking and the closest parking garage is several blocks away. The room and small fan were dusty. The bed was uncomfortable and the bedding was the most uncomfortable sheets/blankets I’ve ever slept on. There is no ac, and be prepared to feel like you’re in a terrarium when you take a shower on a warm day. You’ll have to prop the windows open with a tissue box and have no privacy.

Great place.

clogged shower flooding the room, unsafe apartments (opened by physical keys), bored and unresponsive reception, horrible neighborhood full of zombies

there is NO parking. No Ice machine. The rooms are very damp and dirty I had to leave immediately as I have asthma and I could smell mould. The front office was a mess. A very depressing room

Location

Wonderful staff

Good location but not maint

Good location for transit, sleeping area small but fine, sink and shower area was very small and made it hard to maneuver at times. Worth it for a cheap solo stay where you aren’t spending a ton of time in the room.

Awesome staff

Awe

This gave me hostel vibes and not in a good way. No parking onsite. Was not aware it was a 10min walk after you even find parking. After seraching for over an hour. No bathroom or shower in the room. Ladybin the neighborhood told me car windows get bashed in and was not safe.

My only quip is the hotel windows open but do not have screens. In a hotel without air conditioning, it's reasonable for guests to wish to open a window for some fresh air. However, without screens, it's not a pleasant option given the mosquitoes, if staying during the warmer months.

Close to my venue. No cups. Outdated-Electric outlets don’t all work. Bathroom window won’t close.

Good stay

Such a cute hotel in a great location for a great price! The staff was so kind and accommodating. Would stay here again!

This is the second time I stay in this hotel and I really like the rooms. They’re very nice and clean comfortable and it’s quiet. The staff is always very nice and very accommodating. If you bring your vehicle there’s parking across the street and market. It’s in front of the hotel so it’s amazing For transportation.

Not too bad, however very old, dirty, our room was street facing with single glazing windows and it was extremely noisy. Also only one socket was working in the whole room. All the others were out of order. The hotel staff couldn’t change our room with another one and just gave us a multi socket extension to plug everything into this one working socket. Seven days stay they didn’t manage to get the maintenance guy to try to fix it.

The room was clean and serviceable. Sure, it was small but it was just what we needed for a night's stay.

Front door locked and no one at the front desk when we arrived at 8 pm after confirming an 8 pm arrival at their request. No parking at the hotel, no help from staff in locating nearby parking. Bathroom door would not shut. No call button for the elevator on 4th floor, up only, no “down” elevator. No closet in the room. Grungy common areas.

Nice room

Friendly helpful staff

very good location

We were looking for a local, affordable hotel for our trip to SF. Great location at the intersection of transit lines with amenities nearby, with helpful staff, clean and comfortable rooms and an authentic San Francisco vibe. Would very happily stay again on a return trip.

The location is actually really good.

The hotel was clean and comfortable for the bargain price we paid. When budgets are tight this is a great option.

Great small hotel/

It was good for for a quick overnight in the city, and close to the Bart station

The cleanliness of the room is really good. But No parking(especially EV charging), no heat or AC. The coffee maker is kind of dirty.

Very nice property for the price! We stayed for 3 nights and it was great! The room was clean as well as the bathroom. The bed was comfortable and staff was welcoming and very nice. Check in was supposed to be at 3pm but we arrived early, around 12pm and we got super lucky and were able to check in early so that was so great! The location is also great! The bus stop is right in front and it takes you to the main touristy area! Would reccomend to anyone who is looking for a nice affordable and comfortable stay!

the pictures on expedia looked nice but they must have been old pics. the place needed paint etc it was shabby. my tv got one channel the old fashioned radiator didn't work and sometimes it got really cold room was really small. elevator was the cage kind from the 1930's.

Affordable and exactly as described.

Jasmin at the front desk was very helpful and kind. We were able to check in early and hold our luggage after check out so we could grab some lunch. Much appreciated!

Elevator and Heater were all ancient and never working, had to walk all the way downstairs for a blanket, way too noisy outside the hotel. Overall kind staff, but awful environment

It's a decent cheap hotel in downtown SF

A lot of restaurants nearby.

Location was very convenient, and very nice staff!

Old but clean and cosy with little noise from outside

Property is old, the rooms don’t have any facilities, no fridge, microwave or safe. There are no common areas. The showers have like warm water at best. No air conditioning. Terrible. Stay elsewhere.

Enjoyed my stay. Location was great for transit.

Room was very basic. No cupboard to store clothes so had to keep them in my case for the whole stay. But the room and en-suite were very clean. Towels were changed regularly and the bed was very comfortable. Very little traffic noise considering the location but sometimes internal noise from reception was a bit too loud even late at night.

It’s on the Main Street so expected some loud nights. I was wrong it was not as loud. I love that they let dashers up to the room I don’t have to go down to the lobby.

Fine for the price, needs a/c …..room was hot and no fan

The closest place to leave your car is a parking garage 8 blocks away. It’s basic, but it’s clean, quiet, the bed is comfortable, there’s good lighting in the room and for the price it’s a deal.

Conveniently located hotel on Market Street with streetcar stop in front. The hotel is showing its age but very clean. The only thing the property lacks is air condition but SF rarely is too hot.

It was cheap and they stored my luggage before check in. Room and bathroom were basic but clean and bed was comfortable. Only complaint was that there was no bedside lamp.

Everyone at the Edwardian was very helpful and friendly during my stay. While the property is a little dated, it has all I needed for a great stay. Despite several electrical outlets not working, the room had lots of space and the bed was very comfortable with plenty of blankets for the cool evening. Very convenient location for going anywhere in the city. I would stay again.

Great location and good view from my room

Very nice place to stay

We came here in April for a few nights in San Francisco. The staff here are very friendly and welcoming, and they were fantastic when we had a plumbing issue and accommodated us swiftly in another room. Thanks for your help!

Everything was close and easy to find

Pictures don't look like in the website, its always dirty outside the property

Kind staff and extremely convenient location.

Some rooms face market street which can be a bit noisy at night, so recommend packing earplugs and an eye mask for an excellent night sleep. Wouldn't hesitate to return for a weekend in San Francisco!

Nice clean and modern room, great area, friendly staff.

Very very dirty stains on the beds and towels , Holes in the pillowcases. Hair all around the bathtub. When i walked in my hotel it smelled so bad . Very bad

Great value for money - the staff were really nice and social and my room felt clean. The staff said the elevator was quite slow so I took the stairs during my stay but that was not too bad at all. The area was convenient and felt safe enough around.

Room was ok… got cold at times and you can’t adjust the heat. Also the sink was not draining the whole time I was there. I called but nothing happened. Overall guess ok for the price

There is no parking. The windows have no safety bars or screen. The windows also don’t lock. The sink was clogged. The towels and blankets have stains all over it.

This is an old building and the room was small but enough for the price. The hotel is very well situated, close to downtown but also close to other areas in walkable distance and close to the subway. Very easy to go anywhere from here. The staff was very nice as well. The hotel is located in the busy Market street so bring earplugs for sleeping.

Great value. Will probably stay here again.

The staff is friendly and very welcoming. Also hotel has quick access to public transportation (the BART towards SFO airport access).

Standard room with shower in the back of the building was great. Clean quite safe. I would stay again. For the price it can’t be beat as there is a 24 hr door person.

Clean, safe place in a good location with friendly staff. But a few caviats: radiator didn't work, so they have us blankets and a space heater; we were given one set of physical keys which we had to keep track of; worst was the cage elevator that was difficult to operate. They need modernization, but of course then the rates would go up dramatically.

This is a lovely hotel. My room was small, but very clean. The neighborhood is very urban, but once I was in for the night I felt safe and had no problems. Thank you!

Property a decent price for San Francisco, a little disconcerting when I arrived and no one at the desk but after a phone call someone came down and everything went smoothly; quite a bit of noise from street people but I’m used to cities and was not overly affected

The bathroom was across the hall and there was no heat on 2 of 3 nights. I complained after the first night and the heat was on the next night, but was off the 3rd. After that, I just gave up.

affordable, clean, good staff, near transportation, centrally located,

The location was perfect, staff was friendly, it was clean..price was great...

Just left the property today after giving the key to the morning staff (6 AM). They’ve decided to put a hold on my $200 deposit (money that I need for the rest of my trip) stating I didn’t deliver my room keys. Even before checking with their staff. Terrible management. Not so desirable area. Room was ok for the price.

TV didn’t work. Serious stains on floor. Good staff and location. Clean and serviceable.

The hotel was good value and good location for public transportation with a bus stop right outside but most importantly the staff were fantastic. They were friendly and professional.

A perfect hotel is traveling solo or with a partner. The rooms are cozy but clean and have all you need. Centrally located and close to public transportation as well as tons of restaurants, cafes, & parks. Would definitely recommend & return!

Wasnt great customer service, lots of homeless around the building, elevator didnt work half the time. You could smell smoke in rooms and hallways

Great for the price and super convenient location, it's just a little old and run down but it looks like it has been in business since the silent film era. Also no kitchen appliances but coffee in the lobby in the mornings.

The hotel and room were what I expected for the price and location. The staff was great and accommodating.

Clean, very quiet, small bedroom but nice bathroom. Great location and excellent public transit. Safe with no homeless nearby. I would only have liked a lamp near the bed. Overhead lighting was not enough.

Check was a breeze and the gentleman was very accommodating and professional.

No coffee in room. Had to go downstairs to make coffee. Staff didn’t understand the city & had us going wrong directions. Homeless people screaming all night long.

It is extremely tiny and very old.

Best value in downtown SF, the hotel and clean, safe and well located. Nothing fancy but for this price it’s really good.

The people at the front desk were very nice. The room was clean but very bare bones, cramped, old with no A/C

Friendly

Friendly service. Noise is to be expected for its location. Can’t keep windows open with the smoke oven from the restaurant next door. Property is over 100 years old but it kept up, clean and with fresh paint.

The location and price was reasonable however a major deal breaker: there are several restaurants in the building that release heavy smokehouse fumes from 8am -10pm necessitating all windows be closed tightly or you will wake up to a heavy smokehouse smell. No refrigerator either.

If I had any complaints, it would be a trash can other than the tiny one in the bathroom would be nice and a mini fridge to store cold drinks/snacks would be helpful.

The Edwardian is by no means a high end hotel. And, when I first walked into the lobby, I was very worried about deciding to spend the night here. It didn't make me feel any better when I was handed an actual key to the room instead of a key card. And then when I got to the room, the outside of the door was worn and needed some paint. The room itself was very small. But, surprisingly. the room was clean. The mattress was very comfortable and the bedding was clean and there were plenty of nice pillows. The bathroom was also very small. But there were plenty of towels and the it was also very clean. I needed to iron a dress shirts and I called the front desk, and the gentleman brought up an ironing board and iron up right away. I was only there for one night, so I just needed a place to sleep. So, the Edwardian did the job and the room was cheap. The staff was very nice and attentive. It's just hard to give the Edwardian a really good review because of where the hotel is located. And because the entire property really could use a good cleaning and a fresh coat of paint. I hope this review helps.

Quite noisy, though. Windows seem to be single pane only, outdated option in a city.

We wanted to take a break during the day. The location of this hotel was ideal for us. The cleanness and services were beyond what we expected. We had a very good rest. Thank you so much!

The room has a bathroom and the bed was comfortable. It is a step up from the shared bathroom of cheaper places. Pretty basic room otherwise. Tea and coffee in the lobby, not in your room.
