“Two double beds in a small room was very tight. Would have preferred a queen or king, but they didn't have one they said. First room they put me in, had cigarette smell so they switched me without a complaint. Bathtub was very narrow so hard to take a shower.”

  • Nice boutique Hotel. Like the free wine between 5 - 6 pm.
  • Bathroom way too small.

“The Serrano is a nice boutique hotel situated in the SF Theater District. It seems every time we visit, without knowing what's playing, we just walk down the street to the Curran theater and get tickets to a great show. Staff is friendly, services are good, restaurant is very good as is the Grand Cafe next door.”

  • Good location near Union Square; upscale feel.
  • A little close to the Tenderloin.

“The Serranto is a gem: upscale feel, friendly staff, good restaurant on site. It's very close to Union Square -- but do be careful about straying into the Tenderloin, which is nearby.”

  • Parking was too expensive, bathroom had no counter space.

“Beautifully decorated, bathroom had no counter space, a real problem for a woman. View was great, bed was very comfortable and staff was friendly and helpful.”

  • Gorgeous decorations, really unique atmosphere.
  • The staff was a little spacey - not always on top of it.

“I loved this hotel! I stayed in a two room deluxe suite with a view of the city, so the room was nice and large. The room was spotless, the bed very comfy, and the decor very charming. Overall, I had a great stay. It's only about a block or so to Union Square which is really nice. If you are willing to pay more for a "boutique" experience that is not your average Hilton, stay here!”

  • The decor and the comfort of the beds were great!
  • The rooms were tiny (but it's an historic building).

“The best word to describe this Kimpton property is fun and comfy. The decor is a little wild, but very well done. The beds are super comfy. The place was spotless - very clean. And the staff was great. Because it's an older, historic building, the rooms are a little small. I don't mind this, and indeed it helps give this place some of its boutique charm, but if you prefer otherwise, you might look elsewhere (or perhaps inquire about their larger rooms).”

  • The decor was plush and inviting, and the bed was so very comfortable. The staff went the extra mile to be of assistance to us.
  • I had no complaints.

“The hotel staff greeted us every time we entered the hotel and were highly accommodating to us. I liked that we had a parking garage directly next to the hotel. They allowed us to check in early as our room was ready so we could go sight seeing, and suggested we leave our luggage in their storage room while we finished sightseeing after we had checked out as our car would still be in the parking garage. Very convenient.”

  • Bathroom was cramped and cost of parking was high.

“Definitely a boutique hotel with a quirky personality. The room, though small, was well appointed, though the toilet was so close to the wall it was difficult to sit on. Room service menu was small.”

“This Kimpton property was very nice. Our rooms were spacious and the Aveda bath products were a nice touch. We also received a 25% discount on parking as we drive a hybrid. We'd definitely stay here again - one of our top San Francisco experiences.”

  • Free happy hour was nice and staff at restaurant were wonderful.
  • Did not feel safe.

“Ok if you can't get other hotels in Union Square or the embarcadero. This hotel pales in comparison to other Kempton hotels in SF; the Palomar is much better. The room was small, and parking extremely expensive. Food was great, though. Not in the safest area of Union Square or SF.”
