Below are sourced quotes from recent guests and diners. Scan the highlights and click through for the originals.
“Taj Campton is not a five star hotel… updated gym is outdoors with a temporary roof… food is plain, uninspiring and ridiculously overpriced. The service is the only thing that is OK.”
“Perfectly decent the way a thousand other SF hotels are decent… 1 Hotel is simply so much nicer than Taj Campton Place.”
“Room was small, dark, and depressing… given the Priceline room between the elevators and ice. Asked to move and got a slight Union Square view.”
“$30 facilities charge for Wi‑Fi, water, coffee/muffins… front desk manager waived it. Patio gym is tiny; didn’t notice a spa.”
“Not sure why someone would pick this hotel… location is good if you want to be close to Union Square, but that’s about it.”
“Service has taken a nosedive… host yelled ‘I AM TAKING A GUEST’S ORDER’… chai forgotten; 18% gratuity auto-applied.”
“Updated gym is outdoors… unconditioned and simply inadequate.”
“Food is plain, uninspiring and ridiculously overpriced.”

340 Stockton Street, San Francisco, CA 94108 — steps from Union Square and a short ride to the Embarcadero.
Boutique scale, Taj service standards, and a dining room that doubles as a neighborhood favorite.
