We loved this place! They came in and cleaned every morning without having to ask. And the whole place was always very clean. Staff were friendly and we really enjoyed the whole experience. Our room had a built in noise machine on the desk too which was handy! Great location too! 10/10 will be back.

everything was very cutesy, boutique style The only thing I wish they would’ve had was more affordable parking. I know it’s not necessarily their fault, but they were great in pointing us to some cheaper parking down the road.

We has a great stay at the Emblem. The room was clean and great, well designed and everything we needed. The staff was super friendly and helpful. We needed help with dinner one night and the staff suggested delivery and eating the the lounge it was just what we needed and we could have a great drink from the bar.

Great location, great staff and cool vibe! Really enjoyed stay here. Only downside is the noise of Sutter street (people on sidewalks and nearby bar) can be a bit loud late into PM. Great location as base camp for San Francisco visit!

I think this is my 4th consecutive year staying at the Emblem. The hotel is always funky, comfortable, well located, and I always ask and get a quiet room where I can rest even in this part of the city. Gitanjali who leads the front desk is always helpful. This time she and her team helped me with A LOT of packages I had delivered and they were through and kind. The Bluestone coffee on premise always has great breakfast, smoothies and coffee. Cocktails at the Pacific Cocktail Haven nextdoor are always the best. Looking forward to returning.
