Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

10/10 Excellent

"This is my 2nd consecutive weekend stay! For the nightly rate, thie value is exceptional. Very clean, friendly and courteous staff, cozy bar with television showing SF sites or local sports, and most importantly a plush bed with plenty of pillows. Bonus points for the yellow rubber ducky to accompany your deep bath with provided bath salts"
