Our experience has been amazing so far thanks to mainly Edwin and the help of Steve! From start to finished they made the experience the best, they had amazing personalities, were very helpful, and made the check-in so smooth and stress free. Im extremely happy we chose this hotel for pride weekend! read more

SERVICE & TRANSITIONS -- ok A Functional anti-lobby that still possessed an intimate, "brooding" aesthetic at night, creating a dim, classy & moody vibe. Simultaneously, it's bordering on low-effort due to the lifeless daytime staff; creaking floorboards just don't have the same charm when customer service is "functionally adequate but emotionally vacant", as they say. The parking situation requires some pre-planning - valet is available but can be slow, and the hotel's parking rate ($70) is steep. Instead, I recommend using the Mason O'Farrell garage nearby ($38). Entrance doors require a keycard to open but the non-functioning handicap button was a significant oversight & should be addressed. (Also, these doors are just weird & generally awkward to use...) MVP employees: night staff ROOM [Deluxe King] -- ok https://youtu.be/QiXIGMbArLw Lighting really bothered me in this one; it was more dreary than intimate, in an already gloomy cityscape. To add insult to injury they didn't reliably power on (or work) . Storage capacity was another pain point for us. This configuration simply wasn't ideal for a long duration or couple's stay. It wasn't a complete bust: the designs patterns were pleasant & seating was very comfortable. I got a lot of work done with this workspace. BED [King] -- poor Painful... Sheets were clean, pillows were satisfactory but this mattress was overdue for a flipping/replacement. Oof. BATH -- poor Largely disappointing... Excluding the huge dimensions, strong exhaust, & functional window, it was unsatisfactory. Maintenance issues were abundant: unreliable faucets/fixtures, weak water pressure, misaligned installations. Persistent insect (flies/gnats) issues from day 1. Towels have been neglected, like the rusty shelves. The design was significantly less contemporary than advertised + the robe was missing. TV SOLUTION/ACTIVITIES -- good 42-inch flat screen LCD TV offering strong cable (DirectTV) programming. The mount instillation was impressive & perfectly suited for this layout/configuration, making viewing accessible from every angle. Port access was also user-friendly due to the built-in entertainment center design. WI-FI & CELL RECEPTION -- ok Free unencrypted WiFi portal offering nightmarish speeds. I recommend tethering & not depending on this infrastructure in a pinch. A Business Center was also available on the first floor. --Performance-- Video streaming - average Online gaming - average Video chatting - average --Nerd Stats-- 8-10 Mbps download 3-13 Mbps upload 0% packet loss 118 ms latency 30 ms jitter FOOD & DRINK -- ok DoorDash friendly. Lacking in traditional Food & Drink amenities (in-room microwaves, breakfast service), they've incorporated several convenient refreshment options. The highlight for us was the complimentary morning coffee service (6:30-9:30). Such a delicious roast ... I highly recommend grabbing two cups instead of one - the provided cups and lids are dangerously flimsy & sleeves aren't provided . Located in the same area was a mini market, water station, & (FREE!) gumball machine. While rooms don't include microwaves, the front desk staff were willing to assist with using the employee microwave. A community microwave would go a long way here & reduce some awkwardness, but a thoughtful gesture nonetheless. in-room: microwave (mini) mini-fridge (small) coffee/tea wet-bar mini-bar NOISE -- ok Right in the heart of SF, so expect plenty of the usual inner City ruckus. Not at all soundproof as far as the interior acoustics go. The goal this winter was finding a Fair hotel, far enough from the on-going strikes to sleep at night. This hotel fit the bill so overall a win for the current climate. LOCATION -- great Everything you could want or need is either around the corner or "a block away". Transit, CVS, restaurants, transit, etc are all very walkable. RECOMMENDATION Final Price: $160.43/night Was it worth it? no Best part: welcoming gift (wine) The building has "good bones" and the classic, old-world, design appeal of a traditional hotel. This doesn't make up for the maintenance oversights and notably detached service/experience. One of the few Fair Hotels w/competitive prices in the city this winter season. If the strikes weren't in full swing I doubt we would have chosen this property. Unlikely to return or recommend outside of special circumstances. 3/5 read more

Hotel Abri is delightful. We came for medical care at UCSF and were happily surprised to find John's Grill and Steak House only a block away. Plus, the charming Hyde Street cable cars are only a few steps away. The beautifully restored historic 1907 building is stunning. The rooms and lobby are immaculate. the lobby features a seating area in front of a pseudo fireplace, creating a fine atmosphere for greeting folks you don't intend to invite to your room. One fine thing that the Hotel Abri staff did for us: when I emailed in advance to ask whether there would be a firm mattress for my husband's sensitive back, an agent promptly replied that there would be such a mattress indeed. One thing to keep in mind: if you will be staying on nights when the weather is cold (you know what Mark Twain said about summers in San Francisco), you might want to inquire about extra blankets or how to control the room heating. We did not think to do this, but all was very pleasant anyway. read more

NOT AS EXPECTED :/ We stayed 1 night the 1st week of March 2025. The Staff was very friendly, my husband & I had to drive 2 cars & without asking they were kind enough to give us a discounted price for both. Lobby was clean and right in line with the pictures on their website. Sadly, once we got off the elevator, it was a whole different vibe. Wish I would've taken pictures, but i was too tired from a long day. The room was somewhat clean, tired like it hadn't been upgraded since the 70's & in desperate need of a facelift, complete opposite of the pictures on their website. Streetside room was noisy with garbage trucks & people until around 2:30am (they can't control this) so avoid an outside room. We reserved a urban King Suite & stayed in a standard size bedroom with a separate, very small, couch/desk area. read more

When the maid leaves your door unlocked all day and you come back at night from the hospital where your daughter has had major surgery because of cancer, it's very unsettling. Add the fact that five days later and not one person has contacted us about it even though we have left several messages and emails with the manager. We have talked to 4 different people at the hotel front desk and keep getting the same thing said. A manager will reach out. When?? Very poor service to leave a door open and unlocked all day where anyone could walk in. Still shaken and very upset. read more

We made reservations in advance due to health reasons. We needed to cancel. The first person I talked to said they could just charge for one night. I called back, this person said no refund. I called back to talk to a higher up and that person also said no refund. So we paid for 2 nights and didn't even walk in the door. What a ripoff!!! read more

Don't stay here, horrible experience. The room was not ready until an hour and a half after it was supposed to be ready. It was supposed to be ready at 3 PM. It was ready at 4:30. The front desk staff (Steve) did not acknowledge or apologize for the issue until I asked him about the policy for the room not being ready on time. He finally told me that he would waive the cost for the pet fee on the room ($75, NOT clearly listed while booking). I was super grateful, and told him so... But when I checked out, it turns out that he just took $20 off that charge. When Steve offered to comp the pet fee, another staff member (Miguel) witnessed it, but when I checked out the next day with Miguel, he said he didn't remember & the notes on my account said reduced pet fee. Once we got in the room, it was filthy. Lipstick smudge on the door to the bedroom, fingerprints and smudges on the windows, sink wouldn't drain. Stopper wouldn't raise. Toilet seat was wet. Then, when we got back at midnight, after a long day out at a conference, the room key didn't work. I went downstairs and told them, and the staff let me know that it's because I put the do not disturb sign in the actual card key slot. Turns out that the do not disturb sign should not go in the key slot, even though it tells you to put it there the staff said that when you put it there, if it stays there long enough, it will deactivate the lock. I had to go down twice to get the key card reset. At 12:30 in the morning. read more

Everyone who works at hotel Abri is awesome. Great hotel, great service, lovely experience.

The hotel staff was amazing here! Steve was so helpful with all my questions from the location (got lost and couldn't find the front entrance) to things to do and how to get there! He also helped with finding the right parking garage for our trip. We got towels anytime we needed them. The lobby is so cute, modern and cozy with a fireplace. The coffee was so good every morning and I enjoyed it by the fireplace or looking out onto the street in the front. As we were leaving they found out we needed to stop at a few more places and they offered to keep our things in storage. And to top it off we got a complimentary bag filled with wine, water and snacks in a cute bag as we arrived! I will definitely stay here again! read more

Had a great stay here. Staff members were very responsive to our needs. Hotel and room very clean and safe. Parking with valet is $60/night with unlimited ins/outs. Many restaurants in the immediate area, easily within walking distance. This is an older hotel, but it's very modernized and the beds were particularly comfortable. read more

Found a great deal directly off the website (flash sale) about a month in advance, and boy am I glad we went with this hotel. The environment was very welcoming, the place was clean and modern looking, a small seating area in the lobby with a fake fireplace, wine bottle display, and other quirky décor. There were no homeless people camping outside the entrance, and it looked pretty well-kept from outside as well. The staff was extremely friendly, upgraded us to a king size bed upon arrival, and explained where to find anything we might need, ie. which floor to get ice, etc. The room was on the smaller size, but not claustrophobic, it was bigger than just the bed, had a desk with a chair and an ottoman type piece of furniture, a mini fridge, side tables, fluffy pillows, comfy and clean bedding, decent sized flatscreen TV, closet and medium sized bathroom, simple but had what you would need, including room service if you want food from the hotel. The shower head was wide, and there were big bottles of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash inside the shower area. They also provided bar soap, in case you don't bring your own loofah. The room was overall clean and presentable, no complaints. The temperature control was basically a window AC (with both cooling and heating option), not the most updated unit, but it worked so that's all that really mattered to me, especially because it was an unusually hot winter day (just happened to be summer weather in the city in Febuary). I wouldn't park here, as it's super expensive (valet $65), but it's easy to find much cheaper parking within a 5-minute walk through Spothero reservations. I loved this place because the of the central location walking distance to a venue we were visiting during our stay, and of course, gotta love the 12noon checkout time (since I'm not a morning person)! read more

I stayed here for one night and it was a pleasant experience. As for highlights, the hotel is close to the train station and close to a lot of places to eat. The service at the desk was very friendly and got me checked in quick. The room itself was ready and clean when I entered. While there are windows, my view was just of the building next door. The room came with a good number of towels and stocked well with toiletries. As for anything bad about Hotel Abri. The neighborhood can be a bit dangerous to walk around at night so just be forewarned. Lastly, you'll need a room key to get back into the building. Overall, great place to stay and excellent experience. read more

Be careful when you pick-up your car with valet parking. Abri valet parking service park the car in white zone. - Drivers must retain with the vehicle at all time - Vehicle parked for more than five minutes are subject to citation and towing I was mentioned by concierge that pick-up takes 20min. So, I waited in the room with my family. When my car was ready to pick-up, I checked out and picked up my car. It was around 5-10min... I guess camera is watching. (I should have been waited in the white zoon.) Abri could be better if telling the things of potential parking violation to their guests for preventing $108.00 to SFMTA. read more

Hotel Abri - Parking violation was taken when pick-up my car with valet parking. - Hotels Near Me - San Francisco, California

Dog friendly (if your fur babies are 60 pounds or under). Weekend trip and this was the only furbaby friendly hotel in the area that also had add free parking (one car only) and other packages. We ended up with a suite that was perfect! The restroom was clean, king size bed was comfortable and the concierge/front desk staff was phenomenal. Our suite had a fridge but no microwave (which was fine). Car can either be valeted (we purchased that package where parking was free for 1 car) or there are some nearby garages you can pre pay via Park Whiz app. The pet fee is 75.00 per night. Check in was super easy. The hotel is located near muni, Bart etc so moving around is easy. If you forgot items there are lots of clothing stores and a Walgreens nearby. Tons of food options within walking distance or available via DoorDash. Only downside- reserving on their website there were glitches- dates resetting on the calendar function, having to reenter information or start the process over. I would stay here again. read more

I'm so happy I found Hotel Abri! I was looking for a place closer to the Moscone Center with a bigger room / bed size and a bit comfier space and Abri was the perfect space. Hotel Abri is located near Union Square with a clear path to Market Street. Location-wise, it's in a wonderful prime spot near the hustle and bustle of downtown SF and for those attending events at the Moscone Center, it's a pretty easy 8-10 minute walk. Coming into the hotel, you'll notice a chic modern interior with large barnyard doors blocking off an office space to the nice sofas / lounge area. Once checked in, I was greeted with a bag and bottle of wine which was a nice surprise. Check-in was pretty smooth / not too difficult. I was located on the fifth floor. Elevators were pretty spacious and quick. And my room wasn't too far away from the elevator. Entering the room, I was super surprised how spacious it was. I got the king size room. The restroom needs another extra light above the shower as it's a little dark even with the light in it now, but everything was working just fine. The bed itself was super comfy and spacious. The closet is a little small on the far side of the room. But there was both a small dining table as well as a desk to work at and the WiFi was working just fine too. Getting in and out of the hotel at night/early morning requires you to use a keycard which helps with safety. And was pretty easy to do. Noting a few people might be not happy that there isn't a fitness room available (at least as of March 2022) and that the AC/Heater is relegated to the far side of the room near the entrance, so it may take a minute to heat up / cool down. The street it's on is also a little sketchy late at night so may want to just keep an eye out while you're out and about. Overall, it was a great find. Would definitely come back for future conferences. read more

This was a great find. Yes it is a older hotel but has lots of character, all the amenities needed and super friendly staff which is huge in my book. They were so welcoming on our check-in, unlike many places that 'robotically' just want Credit Card and ID for payment. We were greeted and given an overview of parking and hotel services. Coming back in the evening, again we were greeted and welcomed back. Rooms are spacious and CLEAN. Do yourself a favor and book a stay here. We got a great package deal that included Valet Parking, King Bed, full size sofa pull out (worked for 13 yr old grandson) and Bottle of Wine!! The location is really good and walking distance to Union Square, Nob Hill, and Cable stops, can't ask for more in a City that is slowly coming back!! read more

My husband and I were in town for a concert at the Masonic and were extremely satisfied with our stay. The gentleman who checked us in upgraded us to a suite and gave us a bottle of wine and snacks. We felt very special! We found the location to be very convenient with so many pubs and restaurants close by. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. The hotel itself was very clean too. The 24 hour valet parking service is also very convenient. read more

The Good- -Just a few minutes walk from Bart and Cable cars -Few blocks from car rentals -Comfy bed and pillows -Large sized shampoo conditioner and body wash in the shower -Front desk staff was friendly! -Front door to hotel is locked at all times. Which is good considering they aren't far from the sketchy part of town. -Good food all within a reasonable walking distance. The Bad- -Room did not match photos! Annoying but room was great as a sleeping spot as we were out most of the day. -Could not find the safe in my room. -This is not in Union Square area. They are blocks from that area. -Later in the evening the streets around can become a little unsavory. Didn't have any problems but also didn't walk slow or loiter anywhere. Overall I would stay again for the ease of access to transit and the price point we paid. But the website is a little misleading in what they show for the rooms. read more

We took BART into San Francisco, the hotel is very close to the Powell Station . So, it's super convenient. It's in a great location for shopping and restaurants The lobby is really nice with a plant wall . The staff was super friendly . We received a nice bag of snacks waters and a bottle of wine when we checked in . The room was nice and large with a Air conditioner:) The bed was super comfy . No daily maid service, but staff was very accommodating when items were needed . We will be back :) read more

Not a luxury hotel at all! The 3 stars go to the staff, lobby and location. When you pull up, the location is wonderful and glass entry well appointed. The lobby is very nice roomy and pretty. The staff very friendly! They even hand you a bag of goodies and a bottle of wine. Ok COVID has happened and there will be no extras in your room nor will your room be refreshed unless you give them 24 hours notice after you have been there 48 hours... ya! Our first room was old and depressing, nothing like the pictures! We went down to the desk to see why this 'suite' did nit match any web pictures. We were moved to a 'better' room. Room number 2... apparently the room was renovated years ago and this was when the pictures were taken. The renovator did not have a level or if he did, did not use it. Everything appears old and very well used, desk, furniture. Ok, we will pretend we are in Europe in a medium priced room. What I'm not happy about was the bed was lumpy, the sheets had a tear at the foot, the towels had tears, the bath tub had extreme wear. The vent was FILTHY! See pictures! The rooms was generally clean but not great. No microwave, just a tiny fridge that is not cold. 1 little trash can in the bathroom. You get 2 paper cups. Would I stay here again? Nope. Was it adequate? Yes. Do I recommend? Nope read more

Hotel is in such a great location (union square). Walking distance to all of the shopping, food, and entertainment. The staff were very friendly and provided great service. They were detailed from the time of check in with everything you need to know. The whole check in process was smooth and quick. Room is clean and the air works great. Room was small but all rooms in SF is small. It was perfect for 2. I highly recommend this hotel! I definitely would return for another stay! 2 thumbs up from this yelper! Tips: *WiFi offered. *Offers two bottles of Voss water. *Provides a bag of goodie aka welcome bag. *Provides discount w/the restaurant its connected to. *No charging area outlet near the bed. I had to charge at the desk. read more

Nice reasonably priced boutique hotel in Union Square. Great location just seconds to Market St. I got a suite with a living room separate from the bedroom for $173/night. It had a king size bed and a pull out couch. Could sleep up to 4 people comfortably. Upon check in, they gave me a nice gift bag with a bottle of wine, bag of chips and 2 bottled water. That was a nice touch. Needless to say I popped the wine asap. Tip: Book your room in the middle of the week. I noticed prices are much lower . I saw this same suite for $230 when I looked on the weekend. Tip #2. Buy your own water from outside. They charge you $5/ bottle in the rooms. Nice lobby with a fireplace, a couch and chairs chairs. The room was spacious and clean. The bathroom was quite spacious as well. Nice Italian restaurant attached to the lobby where you can sign the bill to your room. They have a good happy hour there. Only minor complaint was they didn't have a computer . Apparently their one computer was getting repaired. Would definitely stay there again. Happy Traveling!! read more

So dirty and musty, I kept sneezing my entire stay here. I don't recommend staying here. I did ask for a room change but the second room was also dirty and had stray hairs everywhere. When I asked the manager if the rooms were regularly cleaned he said no. My advice: stay somewhere where the rooms are cleaned. read more

Ever like a place so much you stayed an extra night? I had a great experience and you can to. Here is why: 1. LOCATION - steps away from the Powell station and I'm the heart of everything- even the homeless so make sure to be weary. 2. STAFF - they were extremely kind and accommodating. 3. CLEANLINESS - squeaky clean and nice comfy linens. 4. Good value for the money. Some things for improvement: Parking - valet in and out from 7am-11pm and I would not recommend anyone to park on the street. Small older rooms - it's the city so hey, if all you need to do is sleep... Rooms need microwaves. read more

Hotel Abri - The room has decent coffee selections. They're making efforts to care. - Hotels Near Me - San Francisco, California

First night and got the room next to the elevator. If you book using Expedia this will likely be the case. Not sure where the pictures of the room came from but it looks nothing like my room. Furniture looks like it came from an old motel somewhere. No electrical outlets as the two on the desk lamp don't work. So I had to hunt down outlets and unplug some things. I would say this is the West Coast version or the Hotel Edison in NYC. Historic is the best thing so far I can say. Steve at the front desk and room service we very nice also. $4.00 for a small Vaas water is so CA. Tiny room it seems like and the bathroom is very cramped.No room for a vanity counter. read more

Thanks for small wonders in a big city! Not too far off the main hub of Union square. Upbeat,updated in an old historical building in San Francisco. The check in process was quick , accurate and friendly .The room , although small , was clean , the bed very comfortable and the room quiet. It was a nice surprise to have a coffee machine and accessories. Yes I'd recommend to a friend and come again ! read more

I stayed here two nights for my boyfriend's birthday. We drove all the way up from Santa Barbara and needed to have somewhere with affordable parking. Luckily I found a deal on Hotel Abri's website that waived our parking fee with a bonus bottle of wine. When you walk in, it has a nice warm ambience, and the front desk receptionists are very accommodating and personable. It was very easy to check-in. The valet parking was nice as well, just be prepared to call ahead for your car as it does take around 15-20 minutes to get it to the hotel. I did see the valet running to the garage so it must be a ways away. The rooms were just what you'd expect, nothing too fancy, although I did appreciate the iHome. The beds were comfortable and it was a good amount of space, I didn't feel cramped. I didn't care for the beige walls and My only complaint would be that the window happened to face towards a circle of other room's windows. The bathroom was as you'd expect as well. There was a hairdryer, body wash, shampoo, and conditioner in there. The water pressure in the shower was disappointing, but it wasn't too big of a deal. On the hotel website, there was the note that there were complimentary robes, but when I asked, they said they didn't have any. Nothing was a huge red flag or deal breaker, and I enjoyed my stay. read more

I stayed at Hotel Abri for a few nights while staying in San Francisco. Upon checking in, I was presented with a gift bag that included red wine, small bottles of water, and some snacks. The front desk was very friendly and asked if I was looking for a room with any particular features, I specified that I'd like a quiet room. I ended up being placed far from the elevator, which was nice. The view was to the interior, which wasn't particularly pretty, but that's okay because I didn't spend a lot of time in the room. The room was pretty small, but that wasn't a big deal. The bed was comfortable and I enjoyed cuddling the body pillow at night. Breakfast bags are available in the morning up until 8am. I ended up waking up just go get a breakfast bag and then going back up to continue sleeping. Another perk of the hotel is that if you don't need your room cleaned, they'll give you a voucher for a $5 Starbucks gift card or $10 off food at the adjacent restaurant. The hotel is centrally located near Powell St, which made it a great jumping point to explore the city. read more

Stayed here on my first trip to San Francisco. Location is amazing everything is in walking distance, food shopping and more . Hotel staff is amazing .. very attentive and friendly .. even give you a welcome bag with goodies and a bottle of wine (see pictures) The room was bigger then I expected so I was thrilled . Decor is a bit dated but it's an older hotel and CLEAN so it's fine ! The only thing I didn't like was the smell of my room .. it was like musky .. I can't explain it . Not super bad I just got small candles for my stay (only reason I didn't give 5 stars) . I would stay here again and I would definitely recommended it to anyone staying in Union Square area . read more

My husband and I snagged a really good deal a few weeks out from a recent trip, and we were surprised and delighted by this boutique hotel. It started really with check-in, which was smooth and quick. We were also given a welcome bag, like you get if you're attending an organized event at a hotel. It included a decent rosé and some snacks. Really thoughtful touch. Our room was very comfy and pretty well sized for SF. The black out curtains were effective, and there were only vague street sounds from the 4th floor. I'd definitely consider staying at Abri again if I was looking for a hotel in the area. read more

Okay right off the Hotel is an older hotel, but it is renovated very nicely. The lobby is warm and inviting. Key card entrance to the front door is necessary. Valet parking was included in our deal and much appreciated. Because hello....San Francisco and parking can be pricy. This offer was the main reason that I booked at this hotel. Check in was very easy and they even made it one of our rooms available a little bit earlier, again appreciate the extra effort on customer services part. We also received a free bottle of wine which was also appreciated and was decent. The main reason you will choose to stay here it's because of the location just around the corner from the trolley turnaround spot as well as all the shopping you could ever dream up. Lots of good restaurants and bars near by. Be sure to to check out Johnny Foleys around the corner. Irish themed with great drinks and food. The price for this location as free as well. So yes the rooms are older, but it was clean, the beds felt amazing the pillows were awesome. The only thing that made me a little weird it out was my room was a joint room and the door was unlocked to the next room, although there was no one there if somebody would've checked in they could've walked right into my room. Just a suggestion to make sure those adjoining room doors are always locked. read more

Best staff in SF, hands down! The hotel staff treated us like family from the moment we called to make our reservation to the time we checked out. With a family member receiving cancer treatment at UCSF, our family was stressed and had unusual needs, but they not only went above and beyond to fulfill our needs, but also checked in whenever they saw us in the lobby to see how treatment was going. For instance, my Dad was feeling unwell after some treatment and asked if he could check in early, to which they were very accommodating. They also allowed us to park our car out front since their valet services are typically from 7am-11pm but we needed our car at 5:30am to get to surgery. The list goes on and on. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. read more

At first glance, the entrance from the street is underwhelming. A doorway next to some industrial doors. Enter and see a welcoming lobby with a large fireplace with a roaring fire to warm up on a cold winter day. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. 12 stars out of 10. Rooms are spacious compared to others I've stayed at in the area. Window A/C- Heating unit is a plus when most hotels in the area only have heat. Is this an older building, yes. This is evident when looking at the room decor & finishes. They've added outlets to the rooms. The bathroom had been remodeled with a spacious shower, new toilet, sink & fixtures. Plenty of room in here for a couple of people to get ready at same time. The bed was very comfortable with comfortable pillows that weren't rocks like many places have. Need an umbrella- front desk has you covered. Want food delivered? They'll call when it arrives. Location...3 min walk from Powell Street Bart/Muni station. Right around the corner on back side of block. Yet no noise from busy Market street as you front Ellis. There is a large Mall with high end stores. Surrounding mall is discount retailers. Plenty of restaurants for all appetites. Museums are across Market & next to mall. Union Square is other direction from hotel entrance but only about a block away as well. Want to sight see? No car needed. Muni can get you to Golden Gate Park, Alcatraz Ferry, Fisherman's Wharf, Chinatown. You name it. Download the Muni App for discounts. $5.00 unlimited day pass good on all but Cable cars. Want to ride Cable Cars $13 day pass vs $24 purchased thru Clipper. With Muni Pass- You Simply show to driver or person in booth. So to rides on a regular buss pays for it. 1/2 line train that runs along the Wharf is $3.00 each way. Muni app also has trip tool to put in destination & will tell you what you need to ride to get where you want. You can Ride Bart from Airport get off at Powell & walk 3-4 min to ck luggage if early so can begin exploring. Book direct from hotel website for best deals as many waive the urban resort fee of $40/ day that other sites charge. If riding Bart- Can purchase thru apple wallet or Google pay to use your phone for fares. Parking in the city is steep so even if you bring a car, paying to park at other locations throughout the city can be pricey. Same with Uber/ Lyft. Live like a local & ride public transpo read more

This place is really inexpensive but you can clearly see that it needs updating. I am a girl I need two mirrors or no no let me rephrase that I need one mirror away from the bathroom so when my partner goes to stink it up I can get ready in the other room and have a mirror. The people are nice that work there but it's just really cozy for my liking. Also don't get a room that faces the weird windows of death! The best part about this place is that it is so close to the metro/subway and in the heart of the city! read more

Hotel Abri is centrally located at the edge of the Union Square area. If you walk in one direction, you'll hit the shopping area. It's like the 34th St/5th Ave of Manhattan. But if you head a bit further in the other direction, the area starts to get a little bit shady. There was actually a drunk (?) homeless (?) man a few doors down from our hotel with his pants down doing God knows what. But other than that, the area seems pretty okay. Just keep an eye open. As for the rooms, they're pretty tiny. I think the bathrooms have been redone, since they do look a tad newer. However, there's not much space in there, least of all in the shower. The shower head is really low. I'm about 5"5, and my head was almost touching the shower head. Some included perks include coffee in the morning, a welcome tote (containing a few snacks, two bottles of water, and a cheap bottle of wine), and a continental breakfast bag (that you have to ask for), which contains juice, a pastry, an apple, and trail mix). While Hotel Abri wasn't overly expensive (just under $200/night) considering its location, if you're willing to travel a bit further, I'm sure you could find a decent hotel or airbnb for cheaper. read more

Good location clean and secure. Room was small but the price was right for the area.

I liked Hotel Abri because of the location. It's super close to shopping, restaurants and public transport if you want to explore the city. The rooms themselves are comfy and they offer enough blackout shades so that your neighbors in the next building over can't look in. Plus, if you're in town for work, they have space in your room to plug in and the wifi isn't too bad so you can actually be semi-productive if you have to be. So for the cons. I was super stoked that they upgraded my room and gave me a welcome bag... I was super sad that the housekeeping staff swiped it when they cleaned it the next morning. Why? I dunno. I notified the front desk upon check-out and they were going to give me another one, but that wasn't the point... the point is that it shouldn't have been taken out of the room in the first place. Second problem. They took my credit card at check-in and told me they had to authorize for $100 per day - no biggie, it's pretty standard nowadays when you're staying at a hotel. On night two, I was coming back late after dinner and went to the room, only be locked out. I went back to the front desk and there was a line. After 10-minutes, someone was able to help me and then notified me that they hadn't authorized enough, so they disabled my key so I'd have to come back down to fix it. Not cool... I really liked the Aubri at the beginning, but then there was mishap after mishap. I made sure to report the incidents as they happened, but nobody really took ownership of any of the problems. read more

I thoroughly enjoyed my 3 night stay here with friends the weekend of the San Francisco marathon. I'd recommend people to stay here if they want to be able to walk to Union Square, Chinatown or Nob Hill. The Abri is so close to the Powell St BART station, as well. Plenty of options... The cable car route is steps away from the hotel. I read other Yelper's reviews and asked for an "inside" room so as not to face the street and risk any noise from the club across the street at night. We were put on the 4th floor. Room 411, to be exact. My friends were running in the marathon and I wanted a quiet night's sleep for everybody. And it certainly was... Thank you to the Yelpers and their advice. First impression. The lobby was NICE.... Shades of brown and orange on a modern but not trying too hard tip. This is a nice boutique hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful with my questions.... Even hailing me a cab so I can get to Golden Gate Park to see my friends finish their race. I found it super cool that the entire front desk staff/doorman wore black Converse Chuck Taylor sneakers... The front desk also had drinks as a refreshment available to their guests on their way out or heading in... Thought that was a nice touch. The elevators and lobby certainly did have an aroma of fresh baked bread from Subway or waffle cones from Cold Stone which were located right outside the lobby doors... If you've ever stayed in a small hotel in the city you know the elevators are small. No different here. 6 people max. Smelled like bread baking in there, too... Could be a lot worse. I'll take the bakery smell any day. The room we had was nice. 2 full sized beds. I was pleased with it. Modern touch with the paint and head board. The beds were so damn comfortable I found it hard to get up in the morning. I haven't slept that good in months... Amazing. Flat screen was good. Good sized desk and small refrigerator for drinks were a plus. Enough hangers were provided in the closet. Another plus. The bathroom was small but decent. The shower head they had in the stand-up shower, I was really happy with... I need one of those in my life. We used the hotel valet for parking our car. $35 plus tax per night and we totally thought it was worth it. Ins and outs included. We called down 10 mins ahead of when we needed it and they'd bring the car up. I read that other people had issues with wait time but we certainly did not. I highly recommend the Hotel Abri for your stay in the city... I'd definitely stay there again. Damn, those beds are super COMF!!! read more
