This is an excellent hotel for the cost. It's located in the heart of the tenderloin, which makes it a bit worrisome but I had zero issues with the location and the property feels safe and is clean, and the rooms have all I need with a microwave, small fridge, iron and board, hair dryer, large flat screen tv, and nice computer desk. The only reason I don't give it five stars is due to the lack of air conditioning but its an old building. There is also no breakfast but that's okay, there are plenty of food choices near the place. The elevator is old fashioned so listen to the front desk when they tell you how to get in an out of the property and how to use the elevator. It is a bit loud outside so be aware of that fact. I plan on coming here again the next time I'm in town.

It was absolutely a historic hotel with a lot of charm. The staff was extremely pleasant and helpful. However, given that it was an older hotel, it definitely showed signs of wear and tear and didn't entirely match the pictures online. The bathroom was small and a little unclean, and the area surrounding the hotel (which I understand the hotel cannot help, but would have been nice to know about) is not the safest (especially at night). I would recommend this hotel for older, male travelers, but would not recommend for young female travelers. Also, we called the elevator the "murder-vator" for it's likeness to the Tower of Terror found at Hollywood Studios. Once I got over my initial discomfort (and inside my locked hotel room), I enjoyed my stay.

The neighborhood on this block isn't as bad as many people make it out to be. I didn't have any problems walking around during the day or night. Some areas in the Tenderloin do have people out on the street day and night though. You do get noise coming through the windows from the street but you would get that most places downtown. This is an older hotel so it has some rough edges but it was clean enough and the bed and bathroom were fine. I liked that there was a mini fridge and microwave in the room. The stairs are steep but I didn't try the elevator since I was just on the second floor. The Wifi worked well for me. The location is central to many areas so it was easy to get around on scooters or busses.

Es verdad que el hotel es un edificio antiguo que se ve un poco descuidado y la primera impresión no es la mejor, pero la realidad es que siempre estuvo todo super limpio, no había ruido dentro del hotel, casi no vi a los otros huéspedes y el servicio y la preocupación por mi fueron excelentes. La cama fue sin duda lo mejor, dormí como en una nube. Lo único es que la manta era muy ligera y por las noches SF refresca un montón. En cuanto al barrio es verdad que se ven cosas, pero subes una calle y hay una cafetería espectacular (Scully) con la mejor tostada de aguacate, creo que todo va en como lo mires. Yo estoy muy agradecida por que me recibieron a ultima hora.

The worst part about this property is the extremely poor sound insulation. You are guaranteed to not be able to sleep at night. You will hear every Car passing by, every conversation from the street and the occasional firetruck and cop car sirens. I understand it is a cheap room so my expectations were not high, but decent sound insulation should be non-negotiable in a hotel room

Perfectly positioned on the edge of San Francisco’s vibrant Theater District and Tenderloin, the Admiral Hotel offers unbeatable proximity to stages like the Curran, Geary, and Golden Gate Theatres—ideal for show-hoppers seeking affordable convenience. This no-frills boutique spot delivers clean, compact rooms with modern touches: flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and private baths. Expect basic comfort rather than luxury—think functional design in a recently refreshed historic building.

Tucked right in the pulse of San Francisco’s iconic Theater District, just steps from the Curran, Orpheum, and Golden Gate Theatres, Hotel Admiral San Francisco embodies sleek elegance fused with urban cool—perfect for pre-show cocktails or post-curtain unwindings. The lobby sets the tone with its minimalist sophistication: soaring atriums, contemporary art, and a serene waterfall feature that transports you from the city’s hustle. Service is polished and intuitive, with staff who effortlessly handle everything from theater ticket tips to late-night room service.

Wonderful family owned hotel. The TL or tenderloin neighborhood is San Francisco can always be a bit sketchy, but the city seems to have cleaned up in the last couple of years. This is an old hotel which I’m sure if the walls could talk would have quite the stories it has one of the oldest elevators in the city, which is really cool. I would definitely stay here again and it’s a great hotel when you’re on a budget.

“From the moment I stepped into The Admiral Hotel, I was enveloped in a serene, eco-chic oasis that felt like a love letter to Northern California’s natural beauty. The lobby, adorned with reclaimed redwood and a living moss wall, immediately set a tranquil tone, with the scent of clean air offering a refreshing escape from the city bustle.

The admiral stay

We spent 3 nights here in the middle of San Fran. Everything we wanted to get to was walking distance (10-15 mins will hills) or easily accessible to transit. The owner was friendly and I loved the vintage elevator and staircase, truly felt like a nice historical setting while the rooms were modern enough with nice big windows.

Very dated, shabby and noisy. Hotel is in an area that at night is full of homeless people and it’s dirty and feels unsafe. Police noise, music and yelling throughout the night. Room was clean but very dated and unkept, sheets and towels were clean but bed cover was stained, chair was old, bathtub looked bad. We only stayed one night because it was too late to change. Checked out the next morning. The rating of this hotel should not be anywhere near 6. This should be a 3 at max. Do not recommend.

Pleasant little hotel in the Tenderloin

The Admiral is a delightful old hotel in the Tenderloin. The neighborhood is pretty awful, but the hotel is pleasant, clean, safe, and affordable. The staff are friendly and helpful, and I loved the room. It is an older hotel, but freshly painted and very clean, and I loved the mid-century furnishings. Very retro! The elevator is a bit strange, but once you get used to it it is fine.

Worst customer service I've ever gotten in 41 year

Honestly, you couldn't pay me to stay in this hotel again. Manager was extremely rude and disrespectful to my wife, screaming at her over our 17 year old son showing up and staying the night. Kept our deposit without any valid reason other than our kid being in the room with us without putting him on the reservation... Although he watched him walk into the building with my wife. If I could rate in the negatives I would.

Service is good and kindness is very good. The hotel is located in a typical urban ambiance. Don't expect the firemen trucks to be quiet ! Ear plugs mandatory. The Tenderloin area is not for basic travelers. It has been like this for ever. 2 blocs away it is a completely different world. We recommend the hotel for its good price/service ratio.

My reservation wasn’t supposed to be prepaid when I booked it! Especially since the card used for the reservation did not belong to the person staying in the room. The intention was to switch the card at check in, or check out time. But since it was prepaid. It could no longer be changed. As for the staff or cleaning person, one of two medications went missing, and never reappeared, and they were required for existing medical conditions.
