Great choice! We flew in from Oakland, and caught BART from the airport to San Francisco. The hotel was walking distance from the Powell St BART station, and to the trolly. The location was excellent, as we were able to walk to several eateries, and were only 1 block from the hop-on-hop-off bus stop. If you don't mind walking, China town and little Italy aren't far away. The room was comfortable and clean, and the hotel was wuite peaceful. The staff was kind and very accommodating. We were able to communicate all concerns via text, with an immediate response. Based on the location, price, convenience and quality of thebroom, I would Highly recommend The Stratford Hotel, and would definitely stay again!

Had a great stay at the Stratford. Location was great, only hiccup is that they don't have luggage storage if you arrive early or leave later in the day. They refer you across the street to store your bags for $8 a day. I didn't mind, but would have been nice to leave bag with the hotel. Everyone at the front desk was friendly and helpful. Would recommend this place.

The room was so nice. Clean and updated. Very simple and minimal. Very comfy bed. Good thermostat adjustments. The only qualm i had and its not a big one. Was the shower watwr would come out when i was showering and the bath mat towel was drenched by the end. Also found some trash under the bed. Haha. But i would highly recommend this hotel. I will definitely stay there again.
