Love the uniqueness and theme of this boutique hotel. Almost all of our dining and breakfast restaurants were within two blocks of our hotel! Shout out to Mandy Fong, for using her own personal cell phone to book passage for us on big bus tours when our cell phones were not cooperating!! 👍

Terrible customer service - never again!

I tried calling multiple times to discuss my reservation and ended up on hold for long periods of time, then the call would get dropped. I called six separate times, left on hold indefinitely multiple times, several dropped calls and still with no success in answering my inquiry. Never again will I book at this hotel.

I really enjoyed my stay at Hotel Emblem - it's a charming hotel. A number of hotels in this area seem to spend their money on lobby decor and doormen and have very blah rooms. In contrast, Hotel Emblem feels like it puts more money into its room (though the lobby is nice and there's also a cute coffee shop attached). The staff were lovely and the Expedia package I was on waived the resort fees (which I think are in general a rip-off). The area around the hotel is safe - as it's a few blocks up from Powell Street, it's more removed from the less salubrious characters who linger near the BART station. I would recommend Hotel Emblem if you're staying in the Union Square area, and would stay again. (Also try Fanoo's across the street!)
