Union Square Hotels Guide

The brand names are undeniable, and the throngs of people don’t lie: When it comes to the chicest area of San Francisco, Union Square is the place to be. Uncover the best discounts on Union Square hotels so there is more to spend on new threads and trinkets.

  • Discover the cheapest discounts on rooms and suites in the area

Whether you want to wear your comfortable shoes so you can shop till you drop or your pricier footwear to blend in with the posh crowd, this is a place to do some serious shopping.

There are stores to fit every occasion. Pick up a few dress shirts or dresses before attending a musical at the Orpheum Theatre. Purchase some high-end bike shorts before pedaling around Golden Gate Park first thing in the morning. Bargain hunt for some new electronics so you can capture travel photos and video in perfect clarity. Whatever you need, this square has what you’re looking for. While the shopping is always worth visiting throughout the year, you may want to make a special trip during December, as there is often a mammoth Christmas tree lit for public enjoyment. Even if you’re not vacationing during the twinkling season of winter, you can still catch the razzle dazzle of jazz clubs and experimental theatres dotting the neighbourhood.

Another thing that’s sure to be music to your ears is the great rate you’ll get from Expedia.ca on San Francisco hotels. We only offer the best discounts on rooms and suites in the city, so you can select a San Fran Union Square hotel in the middle of the action.

When you’re staying in a neighbourhood full of designer threads, it doesn’t make sense to empty your wallet on pesky necessities like hotels. Book with Expedia.ca and enjoy more to spend on new clothes and wares!

    I loved this hotel. Staff was attentive to COVID regulations (even giving us each our own hand sanitizer!) and let us check out late as we were staying for our daughters eye surgery at UCSF. EXCELLENT customer service.…

    Great new minimalist hotel…
    5 / 5
    I love the minimalist design of this hotel. It feels like classic and classy old San Francisco but the design is not frilly or gaudy. The room we stayed in felt brand new. Bed was comfortable. Bar on the second floor is very cute but the food wasn’t great. Checking in and out was super easy. Only things I didn’t like: the elevator is slow, the bath products don’t have the ingredients listed so you can’t tell what’s in them, and our room was right next to a housekeeping closet which got a lot of action and was a bit loud. …
