Heavenly stay at the Taj Campton Place. After staying at many of the best hotels in San Francisco, this hotel is my new favorite. It hits the right balance of value and luxury. You can pay much more and not be as pleased as with the Taj. This is definitely quiet luxury, which I prefer. While right off of Union Square, the hotel is perfectly located. I also love Chinatown, which is a few block away. The lobby is elegant discreet and quiet. This won’t be the busy train station lobbies of some of the other more institutional large luxury hotels. Gursharn at the front desk was so helpful accommodating and welcoming. Anyone who has stayed at Taj hotels in India will know what to expect. I enjoyed talking about my stays in India. The staff overall is discreet and helpful. The doorman also explained all the parking options. This was really appreciated. The food for lunch was delicious. The curry was perfectly spicy and the passion fruit panna cotta was delicious - worth coming back for. I would also suggest ordering breakfast as early as possible as it did take a long time - like an hour and a half and I’m still waiting as I write this - as the restaurants were closed for renovation. I would guess this problem works itself out when the restaurants reopen next month. We had three rooms and they were all huge with tons of light - a rarity in San Francisco. They were immaculately clean and the bathrooms were enormous. My only suggestion might be a larger televisions. The rooms are so big, the screen seemed small from the bed. Also, the shower doesn’t have a door. It worked fine for me but I wonder if it’s a lot of work for the cleaning staff. The rooms were very quiet and the bed was so comfortable. Overall, I look forward to returning to the Taj when I come back to SF from Hawaii. If you like understated discreet quiet luxury, this is the hotel for you! R. Heater

When we stayed here, the restaurant was under construction so a relaxed breakfast with friends or colleagues was out of the question. Breakfast had to be served in the room, for this you had to pay a $10,- additional fee anyway. Breakfast was not worth the $25,- (without delivery, taxes and tip) they charged. The stars they claim to have aren’t deserved in this day and age, better stay at the Grand Hyatt across the street. Much friendlier and a more modern and up to date environment.

Booked very last minute for one night. John at the door was amazing and had great recommendations for parking/etc. Room/floor was very quiet and really enjoyed our stay. Loved the robes and slippers for downtime. We were centrally located and were able to walk to dinner and around downtown with no issues. Overall had an awesome experience.

Gursharan and Chef Thomas are amazing. Thanks for making my stay extremely memorable. They together made sure that my stay becomes not only comfortable but also homely. All the best Team - TAJ Campton

Location is great, other than that it didn’t feel like a five star hotel really. Quite average. Small rooms- mine was facing another room. Almost no natural light in my room, had to have the lights on at 9 in the morning. Saving grace is the location.
