Hotel Milano

$$, SoMa

User Rating: **** 4.2

Fodor's Review:

Adjacent to the new Westfield San Francisco Shopping Centre with Bloomingdales and Nordstrom, and close to many of the museums and attractions south of Market Street, this hotel is a shopping and culture maven's delight. The eight-story hotel's stately 1913 neoclassical facade gives way to a warm and stylish lobby with a large Alexander Calder-style mobile over the lounge area. Warm earth tones dress the spacious, attractive guest rooms, which have contemporary Italian furnishings. Too much sightseeing or shopping? Ease your fatigue in the split-level fitness center on the seventh and eighth floors.

Best Area for Shoppers!

Posted by Cindy from New Jersey on 7/31/06

The Hotel Milano is in a great area-very close to Union Square and convenient to the best shopping in San Francisco. Only a block from the cable car turnaround, and within walking distance of Yerba Buena Gardens and lots of other hot spots. If you like to walk, Chinatown & North Beach are within reach also. San Francisco has an excellent public transportation system also. We spent 4 nights here, left for a few days driving down to Carmel, and came back for one last night before coming home. Our rooms (708 for 4 nights and then 406 for the last night) were spacious, clean and had comfortable king size beds. Very clean bathrooms with full tub. A/C on the 7th floor was not working great (and when we were there, we needed A/C!), but Room 406 was nice and cool. Neither room had a nice view, but I had requested a quiet room, so we were in the back of the hotel. In-room coffee would have been a nice addition,but Starbucks is right across the street. We felt this was a good value. We paid an average of $160/night during high season. Didn't try the restaurant. Front desk was helpful and responsive to any requests we had.
