The Scarlet Huntington

During a recent stay at the hotel, we had a very unpleasant experience with our room and the management staff. The hotel management handled our complaint with a unhygienic, inhabitable room issue with lack of expected concern or consideration. They did not take our complaint seriously nor were they willing to compensate us for having to check out immediately. I would not refer friends, family or colleagues to stay at this hotel. And this poor experience, ruined a very celebrated weekend in San Francisco.

The Scarlet was perfect. It seemed to us that Nob Hill was much quieter than other areas we considered (Union Square, Fisherman's). We did a lot of walking, and Nob Hill was a great starting point and landing place. It is close enough to Union Square to catch the beginning of the cable cars (you want to start at the beginning and as early in the morning as you can... they get busy fast). It is a pretty good hike to Fisherman's or the Golden Gate, but we enjoyed the walk. It is also very close to Chinatown and the Embarcadero and the Financial District, but if you want to go to the Haight or Golden Gate Park I suggest an Uber. The room was very spacious and the furnishing were very chic (something we enjoyed because it is different than your every day hotel. There is a lot of history in the area. The restaurant and bar has an exceptional atmosphere that will take you back a couple centuries, and the food and drinks were excellent. The spa facilities are very comfortable with a great view out of a wall of windows. The staff was great and always friendly and willing to help with directions. If we every make it back to San Francisco, this will definitely be our home away from home. Top notch experience all the way around.

Celebrating the past, this hotel is a lovely place to stay. The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. The pool area is inviting with both indoor and outdoor lounging and lite refreshments. Families be forewarned that no one under the age of 16 is allowed in the pool area. The staff was more than helpful and very much appreciated. The adjoining bar and restaurant, The Big 4, has piano music in the evening, and turned out to be a great place for a late night dessert.

Great location with a beautiful park across the street. Not hassled by homeless as in other locales. Grace Cathedral - also across the street - is beautiful. It's still close enough to all of the things you want to do in SF. Staff was very friendly and welcoming upon arrival. Arranged an upgrade - SCHWINK!! Helpful, but stayed out of the way for the rest of the trip. Room was clean and well appointed. Plenty of space...then again, we were upgraded :-) Great history and great bar...although service down there was

We had an amazing stay here everything was fantastic including the service and the concierge gave us great recommendations! They gave us an upgrade and the room was super nice and we would stay here again for sure
