A little TLC on detailed room cleanliness goes a long way. Found what looked like blood stain and other stains on bathroom curtains. Also bathroom sink needed a stopper, had something dropped in it possibly by prior customer.

Great pick - it's near Tenderloin which is a suspicious area to be in late at night. The quality of the hotel is super good, managers/employees are extremely friendly, and all of the aspects are well done. Warning: Breakfast = a muffin and coffee tho, which is good if you don't mind a light breakfast. Very ideal for GDC stays

Great place to stay!

The inside of this hotel is gorgeous. Very cozy and well maintained! Punya was especially helpful, he made sure we had everything we needed and he was fun to talk to! The room itself was clean and cute, the window opened up over a busy street of course, so we just had that closed to keep noise down. The beds are so soft and the bathroom was spacious and well stocked!

The property and staff were great! The only thing was just to be aware in the area you’re in, but that’s not the hotels fault. The only thing we wished for was a mini fridge and a safe in the hotel room.

1. They say breakfast included but it's grab and go breakfast...Like muffins and coffee but the not the regular breakfast 2. The street next to it is very unsafe due to so many homeless 3. We booked rooms with 2 queens bed but it was in real extremely small 4. There is no AC and it was damn hot in our room. Called the front desk to get a response please find fan in the closet 5. Parking is across the street but very expensive it's $60 even when outside it was written $30

Beautiful but a bit noisy at nite

I really liked this hotel. It was clean, staff friendly, and the room was high quality compared to other places I've stayed in the area for similar prices. The noise outside was a pretty big factor though. Music playing outside my window until well past midnite. They provided earplugs. I'm a heavy sleeper so I slept just fine. But i could see a more sensitive sleeper having a very bad night. Like most of downtown SF derelicts all around but this block seemed particularly vibrant. I know homeless people are harmless so it didn't bother me but I could see others feeling unsafe wanting an uber to pull right up to the door of this hotel after dark. A very quaint, totally lovely hotel otherwise. Both one of my favorites due to how quality the hotel itself is, mixed with a bit of a concern because the neighborhood seems to affect this place more than others (particularly with the noise -- a full-on street party going on outside my window kind of thing).

I think my star rating of 4 was generous because even though there were aspects of this hotel that were amazing, the location and noise factor make it uncomfortable. The staff were absolutely amazing; friendly, helpful, and very cheerful. I loved the look of the hotel; with high end and thoughtful décor, I felt like I was in a 1920's speakeasy. The room was spacious and accommodating, although the bed was a bit squeaky and not so comfortable. I also would have really liked a small refrigerator to keep my beverages cold. Now for the not so good, and not the fault of Hotel Bijou. It was recommended that I stay in the Union Square district, which I put in my search criteria on Hotels.com. Hotel Bijou came up as an option, and the cuteness factor drew me in. What I did not realize is that it is in the Tenderloin district, which gets extremely loud and a bit sketchy at night. The hotel does not have AC, so I had to open a window to get some cold air, and this was in February. People yelled and screamed until 2:30 in the morning. Which is guess the complementary ear plugs were a good indication of what was to come. I also do not recommend walking outside passed dark. So even though this was not a great location, the hotel's cuteness and friendly staff were enough to still leave a high rating.
