Parc 55 San Francisco A Hilton Hotel

Union Square, San Francisco

Virgin rating

The hotel

One for shopaholics and sightseers alike, Parc 55 San Francisco is easy shopping-bag-hauling distance from Union Square — the only question is, do you hit the big-name brands of the nine-storey Westfield mall or the one-of-a-kind boutiques around the square? Its address also puts you a quick hop from Powell Street’s cable car turnaround, Yerba Buena Gardens, and Chinatown. Once you’ve filled your suitcase and your camera’s memory, you can enjoy the locally inspired dishes of Cable 55 (with its equally local microbrews), and Thai treats of Kin Khao.

This property has ridiculous policies, but I do recognize there are large events where they want to make money. My reservation had a 2-week cancelation period. I called 9 hours late (Hilton Diamond member) and they refused to make an exception, despite being able to re-rent the room (and it being a family issue that necessitated the change, not… Read more
This property has ridiculous policies, but I do recognize there are large events where they want to make money. My reservation had a 2-week cancelation period. I called 9 hours late (Hilton Diamond member) and they refused to make an exception, despite being able to re-rent the room (and it being a family issue that necessitated the change, not just convenience). They're doubling down on short-term profit over long-term satisfied (and loyal) customers. Stay somewhere else - I will. Read less

The hotel is very attractive and super clean. It is also conveniently located across from the BART station and near to cable car and street car stops. Best of all, was the consideration of Carlton at the front desk. When he realized it was our 40th anniversary, he had a special dessert sent to the room with a thoughtful card. It made our stay… Read more

I was told that I could park my police unit there for free. It was verified and my commander called to triple check. When I got there the staff was nice and everything was good to go. But when I asked for the receipt, I was told it’ll be emailed to me. Two days and a 12 hour drive back home, I get an email with the parking fee of $75 was on the receipt. I tried to dispute it and gave them every information, but they say that no one ever promised anything of that kind. I gave name and all, but no one remembers. My commander tried talking to the manager but they also gave him the run around. Still fighting that $75 fee!! Read less
