Grant Plaza Hotel - Hotel Reviews from across the web

No title - expert review
Amazingly low room rates make this hotel a find for budget travelers wanting views of the striking architecture and fascinating street life of Chinatown. Small, modern rooms are sparkling clean, with newer, slightly more expensive digs on the top floor and quieter quarters in the back. Even if you'r...

You won't find any free little bottles of shampoo here. What you will find, however, are cheap rates and basic - and I mean basic - rooms right in the middle of the Union Square-Chinatown action. Many of the small and stark but well-kept abodes - with little more than a clean bed and desk - in the s...

No concierge, no restaurant and no room service. While this isn’t the place to stay for amenities, the slightly out-of-fashion hotel is a great find for frugal travelers. The chandeliers and pink leather sofa in the lobby don’t quite match the fake flowers and French provincial chairs. But...

The Grant Plaza has been rated by many as a 'Best Buy' and is right in the heart of San Francisco. Our historical hotel is newly renovated with modern furnishings and the latest amenities.

Best bang for your buck! - user review
I've stayed in lots of SF hotels, but I always return the Grant Plaza, or the "GP" as me and my friends call it. The location is excellent (right at the Chinatown gate). The rooms are small, but clean, and the staff is helpful. By far, the most attractive thing about the GP is the price: $...

Good value hotel, Nice neighbourhood. - user review
We came back to stay at this hotel again and found they have replaced all the furniture, which is much cozy than before. The staffs still provide very friendly service and we were upgraded to the top floor rooms since they recognized us as returned guests. We have a good time in China town, and the ...

A Roach motel would have been the same - user review
2006, November... My gf and I stayed in this hotel for one night, making sure to leave as early as possible. Why It was horrid. The only thing missing that would have made this hotel the classic dump would have been the grime and roaches. Our room was tiny (we asked for a double bed). So tiny there ...

Grant Plaza's location is excellent 5 minute walk to Union Square. The staff is very helpful and the price is reasonable. TV reception is awful, but then who wants to watch TV when you can see a show, a museum, or just walk the streets of beautiful San Francisco and watch all the people. The rooms h...

Affordable San Francisco - user review
If you don't want to spend all of your money for a bed to sleep in the Grant Plaza is a good place to start. Older building, clean with decent sized rooms and a place to lay your head. Within walking distance of Market Street and connections to other locations. The area seemed safe and staff was cou...

Situations is awesome, since it is in walking distance of everything. Convenience is not good enough of a reason for me to go back again.

Cheap; but not good service - user review
The (very tiny) room wasn't ready when we arrived to check in at 2:35pm. It wasn't cleaned until rather late in the day every day we stayed there (after 3pm), but on checkout day, they were calling and knocking on our door 15 minutes ...

Not so hot, great location - user review
The hotel is in a convenient location and it is cheap, however the rooms are very tiny, the shower was moldy, and the bedding was not paricularly comfortable. The television had maybe fifteen channels and you cannot order and play movies. Parking is not included. We febreezed the room multiple times...

Grant Plaza I’ll be back - user review
The price and location made this place ideal. The room was very small but we were only in the room to sleep and shower so it was well worth it. The staff we dealt with were very nice.

This hotel is old, dingy and small. I can not emphasize that enough. It was sufficient for us because we only needed a place to sleep, shower and store our luggage.

We had a hard time getting something reasonable near the square, and earlier reviews were mixed.

I'm not sure what all the people who gave the hotel a bad rating were expecting, but the Grant Plaza was great.

In response to Steve from Los Angeles and as a continuation of my 9/16/03 comments, there was only one reviewer who gave the hotel a bad rating.

Grant Plaza Hotel, located in Chinatown, is a great place to stay on your San Francisco trip.
