• Found nothing negative.

“We would defiantly stay @ Hotel Triton again. Everyone was very friendly. Social hour added a nice touch for meeting new people also. Can't wait to go back!”

• The staff was outstanding, especially the front desk/ concierge.
• It was pet friendly. You could tell immediately and allergies kicked right in.

“Overall the rooms were pretty clean, but small. The service was excellent. The hotel seemed a little worn down, but unique. It was a pet friendly hotel and being allergic to all cats and long haired dogs I could not stand in the lobby without feeling as if my throat would close up. We stayed on the "no pet, allergy free floor" but the hotel has a certain weird smell to it, I think because of the pets allowed. It is in a good location.”

• Even though it's in the heart of the action, the rooms are very quiet.
• No shelving in the bathroom for toiletries.

“The hotel is very trendy, upscale furnishings and a far cry from the drab hotel rooms of most of the standard chains. Lovely amenities and extras like the iPod docking station, the office chair. Aveda bath products and the bed linens.”

• Location and decor. Very cute-bright-uplifting.
• Price to park car was $45+ per night.

“I would definitely stay here again. The location is perfect for walking to Union Square, Chinatown, and Market St. The Decor is bright and cheery. Very people friendly and for a "pets allowed" hotel. Very clean. No odor of pets noticeable.”

• It was very cool, maybe too cool for me!
• 2 double beds were not great, I prefer a queen or larger.

“Very hip but a little too pricey for the small room with small beds. The bathroom was teensy, it was a good thing that the sink was in the entry way. Location was great.”

• Great workout facility and location!
• Very loud room due to air conditioner in window.

“The hotel was in a great location and had a very nice Boutique Lobby with a wine tasting hour. The rooms are small, but nice and the workout facility was topnotch. The only detraction was that because there was an air conditioner in the window, it seemed as if the sound on the street was in my room. Also, someone set off the fire alarm at 6AM necessitating a complete evacuation due to the false alarm. How about some better signage so the patrons don't open the wrong door?”

• I really liked the decor it was fun and different.
• Valet parking took us over 2 hours to get car.

“The hotel was very nice I loved the different decor. Our stay was very nice, however, we did have problem with valet parking when we left the room. We waited over an hour and then we ended up getting our car ourselves. The hotel was very apologetic and credited our room for the parking. I would stay there again when we are in San Francisco.”

• Evening happy hour from 6 7pm, free wifi & all non smoking.
• Bathroom on 7th floor room was much smaller than I had expected.

“This is a very funky hotel in the heart of San Francisco. I have stayed here many times before and have always enjoyed myself and the staff has always been friendly and extremely helpful. The hotel rooms are always clean and the beds are very comfortable. I stayed on the 7th floor this trip and I think the room was much smaller than the ones I have stayed in before, so if you can try to get a room on one of the lower floors. The hotel is a quick walk to many attractions including union square and has some of the coolest shops, bars and restaurants as its closest neighbors. The fact that the hotel is all non smoking is a huge plus! Overall I would recommend this hotel to everyone!”

“Hotel had an incredible location, friendly staff and a fun wine tasting each night. The only downside is the rooms are small so for two people to move around in them, it was tight.”

• I liked the complimentary light-up rubber duck that came in our room.
• The room was very small, and the "eclectic" decor was reminiscent of garage-sale finds.

“It was difficult to be comfortable in a room with such loud decor and eclectic interior design. It seemed as if nothing matched anything. That all fixtures and materials used in the design of the hotel were randomly compiled and used as they were found. However, the beds were very comfy.”

• Great location, interestingly furnished rooms, evening cookies was a big hit as well as morning tea and coffee.
• Was not well set up for kids; me, hubby and kid all needed to sleep in a king size bed, no room for cot.

“Overall my family and I (2 adults, one child) enjoyed this hotel. My complaints were: not enough cable TV channels, we don't have cable at home and love to watch hot when we go out but this was not available. The kid loved the 24 hour cartoon channels however. Also we all had to pile into the king size bed as there was no room for a cot, we didn't want to purchase another room just for our child. That was fairly uncomfortable. There may have been another solution to this but we didn't pursue it ahead of time. One small cleanliness issue: the air conditioner motor casing outside the window was covered in lots of bird poop making it unsightly to look out that window, but this was a minor issue. Our family enjoyed our stay overall (with the exception of having to sleep in one bed).”

“Sitting right outside of the san Francisco Chinatown gate, the hotel triton is full of eclectic designs and friendly staff. Over the course of the day, there are a number of services provided to guests, including a morning coffee and tea bar, an afternoon wine tasting hour, and fresh apples and cookies throughout the day.”

“This hotel meets all my expectation, I was celebrating my wedding anniversary and to my surprise, not only did they upgrade me to a corner room. That was a bunch of pleasant surprises waiting for us when we arrived! The service staff were very profession they work with subtle efficiency and can be rank up there with the best of the industry putting some staff of Bigger 5 Star hotel to shame! Thanks for a pleasant memory guys!”

• Great location, good value for the money. Clean, safe, fun atmosphere.
• Rooms are small (most are in this area), but nice. Because it is the lower-end of the Kempton line, no bell service. Not a big deal, just be prepared.

“Overall, this is a great hotel for people who like nice rooms, good location, and boutique-style accommodations. Sacrificing doorman/baggage services was a small price to pay. Avoid the cafe toward the china town gate (cafe press). It is pretentious, overpriced, services mediocre food, and offers slow (I said slow service). I walked out once, and nearly walked out again the next day. After a few tips from the desk staff, we found a lot of great alternatives within easy walking distance.”

• Everyday something new goes wrong, no heat, no maid service etc.

“Ideally placed for shops, financial district and Chinatown, this hotel has location aced. Its funky furniture and even a goldfish bowl in your room are one thing - a fortune teller at night I could do without - but hey it might work for you. They have problems here in running the hotel, no maid service some days, there was no heat in my room and in fib it is cold. They never offered to fix, compensate or move me. One last thing: free internet and morning coffee I like. Should be the same at every hotel.”

“Right outside the gate to Chinatown and not far from the Financial District and North Beach, the Triton is extremely well located for visitors to SF. The somewhat tiny rooms are well appointed and un-chain-like. This is an older hotel that has been intelligently and artfully updated. Complimentary morning coffee and early-evening wine are much appreciated, and the staff is great.”

“Hotel Triton is a wonderful place to stay in SF. It is within walking distance of Union Square, and just across the street from Chinatown. Two cable car lines are just blocks away and provide easy access to Fisherman's Wharf. The staff is friendly and attentive, and they provide coffee in the mornings, cookies in the afternoon, and a wine reception every evening. I would highly recommend this hotel.”
