Excellent location. Surprisingly quiet despite being in the center of everything. Very clean and friendly. The room was pretty small but great otherwise. If you drive you have to park yourself in one of the nearby parking garages but that’s the case with all the hotels in the heart of the city as best I can tell. If I was just visiting SF I would have skipped the rental car and used public transit. The trolley runs right in front of the hotel.

Reliable old favorite

The Chancellor is a consistently high-quality, good value, old-school hotel. Always a peaceful retreat from the business of Union square, yet centrally located with easy walking and access to Bart and Muni.

The location was excellent! While the building's age shows, it has a charming character. Our room was small but cozy, with a comfortable mattress and pillows. However, our one complaint is that the walls are quite thin, and we were disturbed by noise on one of the nights. Overall great stay!

I consistently stay at the Chancellor. It is reasonably priced, on the square (easy to walk to shopping) and the courteousness of the staff. I highly recommend staying here.
