The hotel

Put yourself slap-bang in the middle of some of San Francisco’s most fashionable theatres, restaurants, and sights. The boutique Marker Hotel is a great base — and its energy matches its setting. It was built in 1910 but you can still see its ‘Beaux Arts’ beauty in the lobby’s floor-to-ceiling fireplace and grand marble staircase. The hotel’s anything but olde-worlde though, with little touches like WiFi, and a Hydration Station providing fruit and herb infused water on tap.

The room, the environment, the staff, the atmosphere were wonderful. Blanca at the front desk was especially lovely and helpful. The restaurant was yummy and convenient, and we loved the coffee in the morning. We were very happy at The Marker, and will be sure to return.

Great location, very centered in the city so ubering is easy. Comfy stay, soft bed and good water pressure for showers. Housekeeping was great and left our rooms fresh every time. Very nice and friendly staff! Blanca, John and Kyle were all so helpful and got us late checkout which we loved.

The experience was nice and there was no extra voice here. However, there are some important points that I should mention. Firstly, the mirror shouldn't reflect bed because sometimes seeing the mirror makes the customers afraid. Second, for those people who clean the room, please let them keep quiet when the customers are still in the hotel and doing private things. I think being disturbed is really bad. Read less
