Highly Recommended

We had an excellent stay at the Chancellor, a beautiful, historic hotel right on Union Square. I particularly appreciated the bottle of champagne the hotel laid on in our room, unprompted, when I let them know we were there to celebrate my friend's 40th. Would definitely stay again!
I didn't even ask for this, they just included it when I mentioned my friend's 40th -- amazing service!

I enjoyed every single aspect of my stay at the Chancellor Hotel and will be looking to return here for my next trip to SF. The location at Union Square could not be more perfect for commuting around the city, and every member of the staff I interacted with (including the parking attendants in the neighboring complex) was friendly, professional, and helpful. They even helped return an Apple watch I left behind at checkout.
