The Spotlight on The Bartlett Hotel and Guesthouse

Urban Vibes & Music-Ready Comfort in the Heart of San Francisco

Modern and budget-friendly, The Bartlett Hotel and Guesthouse sits just steps from Union Square, placing you right in the action of downtown San Francisco. With a cool shared lounge, on-site bar, and free WiFi, this hotel blends traveler-friendly amenities with a laid-back city vibe. The Moscone Center, Oracle Park, and many of the city’s best music venues are all within easy reach.

Why Concert-goers love it

The central location in Union Square means you're never far from your next show – whether it’s a stadium concert or an indie gig in a tucked-away club. The 24-hour front desk is a plus for late-night arrivals, and nearby public transport makes late returns from venues smooth and safe. After the music fades, the hotel’s relaxed atmosphere offers a welcome wind-down.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a fun, central spot to crash after the show
  • Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list performance
  • Couples turning a concert night into a weekend getaway
  • Fans seeking a quieter, comfy spot to recharge post-gig
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want value in a great location

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no 24/7 room service, the hotel’s on-site restaurant and bar keep things simple and satisfying. You’ll also find plenty of late-night bites within walking distance – from casual pizza joints to trendy diners. Morning-after breakfasts are easy to find all around Union Square, perfect for refueling after a long night out.

Nightlife Options

The hotel sits in one of the city’s most vibrant neighborhoods. Whether you're into cocktail lounges, dive bars, or classy wine spots, you’ll find them just a few blocks away. While there’s no live music on-site, the hotel bar is a chill place to start your night with local brews or a glass of wine.

What People Say

Travelers praise the excellent location close to public transport and concert venues. Reviews often highlight the clean, modern rooms, and the friendly front desk team that’s ready to offer local tips. Guests love the balance of value and convenience in the heart of the city.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the rooms can be a bit compact and street noise is noticeable – something to keep in mind if you're a light sleeper. Also, while there’s a cool bar and restaurant, food options on-site are somewhat limited late at night.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to San Francisco for a concert and want a stylish, affordable place near all the action, The Bartlett Hotel and Guesthouse hits the right note.

Save yourself the hassle and...

Liked: central location, clean enough to sleep in, felt mostly safe but then again i was with my fiancé
Disliked: First of all they had the radiator on full blast even though it was sweltering heat outside, in the middle of June. I wanted to cry when i got into the room wanting to sleep and had to thrash around on the bed until the room cooled down enough to sleep. Then there’s the fact that check in is at a different hotel, on another street. The bed was so uncomfortable. The window hadn’t been cleaned in forever.Mind you we got one of the more expensive, ensuite rooms in the hotel so i can only imagine what the shared toilets are like.The elevator is so old i thought it was going to snap and fall. Made the strangest noises as if it was on the edge of breaking..

Liked: Central location, clean, effective security, comfortable room, simply decorated, Wi-Fi, TV
Disliked: It’s the USA so no in room tea or coffee making facilities. No on-site reception. Bathroom sink plug did not retain water. Annoying Reception practice of requesting a credit card for “security” even though the room was pre-paid using ApplePay.
