Marines' Memorial Club & Hotel Union Square sits in Downtown San Francisco, one of those discreet mid-range hotel additions that travellers tend to bookmark before the rest of the city catches on. The setting is part of the appeal, barely a stroll from the centre of San Francisco, and the location score sits in strong territory because of it. Rooms feel practical; the touches travellers mention most are reliable wi-fi, on-site parking and an in-house restaurant, and the comfort feedback has been broadly positive. With well over 3,400 reviews on the books and a strong average, the reception from guests does most of the talking here. Reputation has held up across enough stays to mean something. Recent rates have been hovering around €154 a night, which lands as a middle-of-the-road option for the city. Stack Marines' Memorial Club & Hotel Union Square against the better-known names in San Francisco and the trade-offs become genuinely interesting.
