San Francisco Marriott Union Square

Stylish Comfort Steps from San Francisco’s Music Scene

Modern and sleek, the San Francisco Marriott Union Square places you right in the heart of downtown—less than a mile from the Moscone Center and minutes from iconic venues and buzzing nightlife. With upscale rooms, city views, and walkable access to transit and entertainment, it’s a solid choice for concert-goers who want to stay central without sacrificing comfort.

Rooms are chic and tech-friendly, featuring HDTVs, MP3 docks, and coffee-making facilities to help you recharge post-show. With a 24-hour front desk and in-room WiFi, you’re covered whether you’re arriving late or streaming the band’s setlist after the encore.
