Hotel Triton

Union Square, San Francisco

Virgin rating

The hotel

As chic as it is bohemian, Triton is one of the trendiest hotels in San Francisco. With a style all of its own, including suites designed by celebrities and art exhibits often hosted by the artists themselves, it’s one of those hotels you’re proud to ‘drop into conversation’ when you get home. The Triton team say it’s like staying with a fashionable friend who lives right by Union Square and Chinatown. With a Bag Butler to pick up your shopping from Union Square’s boutiques, an organic snack bar in your room, in-room spa treatments, and a wine social hour each evening, we think it’s probably better.

Where is it

There are plenty of dining options around the hotel; in fact it sits between two popular restaurants, one of which offers room service to Triton guests. Transfer time from San Francisco International airport: 25 minutes.

Great location! The room was spotless, compact but who wants to stay in hotel room when in such a great city. Bathroom was on small side, difficult to enter/close door without nearly falling in the loo! The sink is outside the bathroom in a small recess, this is totally understandable due to the nature of room layout as the hotel being older. … Read more
Great location! The room was spotless, compact but who wants to stay in hotel room when in such a great city. Bathroom was on small side, difficult to enter/close door without nearly falling in the loo! The sink is outside the bathroom in a small recess, this is totally understandable due to the nature of room layout as the hotel being older. Breakfast would be better with smaller tables, however there was always something available and it was restocked regularly - croissants, bagels, toast, jam, cream cheese, fruit, teas and coffee. Housekeeping is on a request basis, no problem at all, the staff were excellent and friendly. Really loved the happy hour in the afternoons, a lovely way to end a day after exploring the city. Found the hotel to be quiet and hardly heard outside noise, we were on floors 7 for 4 days and then 5 for 6 days after a 4 day break in Santa Barbara. I must praise Heleina on reception. What a lovely, friendly, helpful and professional person. Always with a bright smile on her face, she was an absolute star! I even think she understood my odd English humour. What an asset to the hotel she is. She deserves a pay rise! Overall great stay, would recommend. Read less

Love this hotel with just a couple issues. The shower runs all over the floor…like a lot. Not sure why they wouldn’t put in a splash guard or at least offer a lot more floor mats as we had to soak it up and get new towels every day. And breakfast was a little strange. It was at least coffee, juice and toast but some yogurt would’ve been nice. … Read more

More than 3 hours of delay, in having my room ready for check in... Suboptimally cleaned. Below average room quality for 4-star Some of mentioned facilities were not really available. Overall, very poor experience, strongly not recommended

The hotel was centrally located next to China Town and very comfortable - the reception staff were marvellous and very helpful. We stayed two nights and would go back again. Our only point would be that breakfast arrangements could be improved a little.

Comfortable bed television and staff at reception were very helpful. Anytime I called or asked for something small they responded instantly. Very easy to deal with and extremely friendly. Location is also excellent and easy access to public tramsport. Plenty of bars, restaurants cafes within 2-3 minutes walk
