The Bottom Line
Few hotels capture San Francisco’s personality better than The Powell Hotel. In addition to its historic features, it’s ideally located, has great amenities, and offers a comfortable place to rest your head at night. However, while affordable for it's ranking, Powell isn’t the cheapest hotel in the area. The nearby Grant Hotel often offers lower rates, but is not as luxurious and is slightly further from major attractions.
