The Spotlight on Hampton Inn By Hilton San Francisco Downtown/Convention Center

Comfort Meets Convenience in the Heart of San Francisco

Modern and budget-friendly, the Hampton Inn By Hilton San Francisco Downtown/Convention Center puts you in the middle of San Francisco’s vibrant SoMa district. Just a short walk from Union Square and surrounded by bars, restaurants, and iconic music venues, this hotel is a smart and stylish hub for anyone coming to the city for a show. Rooms are clean and functional with free WiFi, and the vibe is welcoming with a focus on comfort and convenience.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything, and this hotel delivers. You’ll be within walking distance of major venues and can easily get around via late-night rideshare or transit. The 24-hour reception is a major plus if your night runs long, and check-in begins at 3:00 PM, giving you time to settle in before the music starts. Despite its central location, many guests report quiet rooms—perfect for recharging after a high-energy night out.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable, well-located base
  • Solo travelers catching a once-in-a-lifetime act
  • Couples extending the concert into a weekend getaway
  • Fans seeking a peaceful night’s sleep after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want comfort and location

Food and Drink Options

Start your day right with a free hot breakfast, even if you hit snooze a few times—perfect after a late night. While there’s no on-site restaurant, you’re surrounded by walkable dining spots that stay open late. There’s also a 24/7 front desk where you can ask for local food recommendations or nearby delivery options.

Nightlife Options

You're in a prime spot for exploring San Francisco’s nightlife. From craft cocktail lounges to live music bars, everything is just steps away. While the hotel itself doesn’t have a bar, its central location means you’re never far from the action.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff and clean, modern rooms. Many highlight the excellent location near Union Square and SoMa venues. The included breakfast and strong WiFi are also frequent favorites, especially for those trying to stay on budget.

Areas for Improvement

The rooms run a bit small, so if you're traveling with a lot of gear or friends, space might feel tight. There’s also no on-site parking, but nearby garages and public transit make it manageable.

The Bottom Line

A clean, centrally-located stay with great perks and walkable nightlife—perfect for concert-goers who want to stay close to the music without breaking the bank.

John, Richmond, visiting Mezzanine San Francisco

My wife and I had a great stay at the Hampton Inn. They definitely had the best rate in the area. The hotel is only 2 blocks from the Powell BART station which is very convenient getting to and from the airport. The rooms are a little on the small side but manageable. The staff was very friendly and kind. I also would like to single out one employee, Daniel. He went above and beyond to make sure that we knew where everything was in the city, recommended some excellent restaurants, and made sure that our stay in San Francisco was great. I would give Daniel 6 stars. I highly recommend this hotel and I commend Daniel for a job well done.

Reasonably priced clean hotel

Liked: It's a nice hotel at a reasonable price. The bed was comfortable, the room was small but stylish, the blackout shades were amazing and the view was lovely. The bathroom is decent sized with a modern shower. The facility is well kept and clean. Breakfast had a range of options. The staff was friendly. Rooftop access gave some great views especially at night.
Disliked: As mentioned in other reviews, the area is sadly overrun with street people. Vomit, urine, defecation all within a block or two of the hotel. Watch where you walk. I walked to bars in Folsom at night and sixth street seemed to be the epicenter. I don't think using a different hotel in the area will change that. It's not Hampton's fault but its something to be aware of. There is a MUNI stop just at the corner to jaunt out of it.I stayed on the 16th floor and the hotel was down to one elevator. Mornings were tough as every guest in the hotel is trying to get to the basement for the complimentary breakfast. Combine that with housekeeping clearly having multiple floors as their big carts take over the elevator also in the morning. People with luggage racks trying to check out added to this to create 10 minute wait times for the elevator and another 5 minutes to go up or down as it stops on almost every floor. It made me not love the guy on the second floor taking the elevator down one. I stayed Thursday til Tuesday and it was down the entire time.Overall I would stay here again even with those hiccups. The elevator is the only reason I did not give this a 9.
