The Spotlight on FOUND Hotel San Francisco

Cozy, Budget-Friendly Stay in the Heart of SF’s Music Scene

Modern and minimalist, FOUND Hotel San Francisco is a centrally located boutique hotel with a laid-back vibe that’s perfect for music lovers. Just blocks from the city’s transit hub and close to popular venues like the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium and the Warfield, it places you right in the middle of the action without breaking the bank. Whether you're here for a show or a weekend escape, this hotel gives you an authentic San Francisco experience with easy access to everything you need.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything, and FOUND puts you just a 5-minute walk from Powell Street BART and Muni Station, making late-night returns from shows across the city fast and easy. The hotel’s quiet, hostel-meets-hotel atmosphere and 24-hour front desk mean you can come and go on your schedule. Free WiFi and communal spaces let you keep the post-show vibes going with friends or wind down solo.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a central, affordable base
  • Solo travelers catching a dream concert or festival
  • Couples making a weekend out of a live show
  • Fans seeking a quiet, no-frills recovery spot
  • Budget-conscious music fans who want style without splurge

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t have a restaurant, you're steps from countless late-night bites in the Tenderloin and Union Square neighborhoods. Grab tacos, ramen, or pizza into the early hours. Several cafés nearby serve brunch and breakfast ideal for post-show mornings. Communal kitchens in the hotel also let you prep your own snacks or meals.

Nightlife Options

  • Close to iconic live music venues like the Warfield and Great American Music Hall
  • Walkable to bars, lounges, and speakeasies in Union Square and SoMa
  • Chill with fellow travelers in the hotel’s shared lounge spaces

What People Say

Guests love the location, affordability, and cleanliness. Reviews highlight the helpful staff, great access to public transport, and the cool, minimalist design. It's praised as a great value for travelers who plan to spend most of their time out exploring or at shows.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms are on the smaller side and the neighborhood can feel a bit busy or edgy at night—typical of central SF. But guests say the hotel itself feels safe, and the value more than makes up for it.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want a clean, comfy, and affordable base just minutes from San Francisco’s top venues, FOUND Hotel San Francisco hits all the right notes.

Superb

Liked: The staff were kind and wonderful. The hotel was overall clean and pleasant. There’s a lounge on the second floor, along with a 24/7 kitchen and laundry room, which was very convenient.
Disliked: The hotel itself was fine, but the area was a bit noisy. My room faced the street, and every night there were loud, explosive sounds coming from outside.

Not again. Wont recommend anybody.

Liked: Bed was compy and looked clean
Disliked: There was a toilet smell whole stay. Had to close under to restroom door with a towel. Omg rooms are so claustrophobic, we were shocked how tiny rooms and no place to open a luggage and stand next to it, literally no space. Nothing like the pictures. Also somebody knocked our door so hardly at 7am maybe somebody was trying to enter their room and confused the rooms, I asked who is that he kept knocking and left but it was creepy and did not feel safe. Outside is close to train and cable car but there are too many homeless and piss and poop and also smells on the streets, street is close to homeless shelter areas not safe to walk any time after dark anytime….. Lastly there is a very disgusting breakfast restaurant or cafe under or next to back of the building, it smells like puke early in the mornings, couldnt open a window in that claustrophobic room.
