Prior to check in we called and asked about late checkout at 2pm .We were we told because we were told because we had joined the IHG members rewards that if available no problem. Again when we checked in we asked the very helpful blonde female staff member about 3pm checkout, she said if available. Since no could check in till 4pm there should not be a problem. The next day again at 10:30am we asked at the front desk about 2pm check out . A very rude white male said No we are fully booked . I explained that we were enrolled membership and had already asked and were told since no one could check it our room until 4pm what the problem ? He then rudely said while when's house cleaning suppose to clean the room . I said at 2pm . He replied gladly just pay for another day . I said that's unacceptable as a member. Then his excuse was i didn't book the room on their website . I'm sorry I didn't get his name ,everyone else was so wonderful. The hotel was beautiful, services were great . The only thing missing was a Bible in the room lol Thank you a otherwise wonderful stay Charles Blancet

A very nice stay. Indeed all of the staff were very friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable, nice shower and very clean hotel.
On the downside, the gym is poor. The Nespresso machine was defective and the replacement was quite “flaky “ but could be tweaked to work.

I made this reservation for my son. I called in advance to tell them that he would be using my credit card to pay. The guy said no problem and was super nice. My son got there and the receptionist treated him like a criminal. Said she wouldn't accept it. She told him to get out of line until he figured it out. He couldn't believe how horrible she was. He said she was angry. He did not get out of line and had to use his card. He called me when he was dealing with her and she was very rude. He got there on the 18th.

Easy check in and out. Great friendly staff. I didn't utilize the discounted valet parking but parked down the street in a covered garage for $10 less. The vinyl record player in the room and LPs you can check out were a fun, unique offering. The room was nicely remodeled -- I liked that the aircon unit was covered by a new console. Robes and yoga mat were a nice surprise.

Our stay at the Alton Hotel in San Francisco was nothing short of perfect! From the moment we arrived, it was clear this place excels at creating a warm and welcoming experience for both people and pets.
The hotel’s dog-friendly policy was a big draw for us, and they truly went above and beyond. Our dog, Cody, was treated like a VIP, with the staff fawning over him. It’s rare to find a place that accommodates pets so thoughtfully.
The room itself was a haven of comfort. The bed was incredibly plush—perfect for a restful night’s sleep after exploring the city. The shower and bathroom were equally impressive, with modern fixtures and luxurious amenities that felt like a spa experience.
We were lucky to have a room with beautiful views of the city, which made waking up each morning a joy. The location couldn’t have been better—right in the heart of everything, with easy access to all the sights and attractions.
The on-site restaurant was another highlight. The food was exceptional, with a menu that offered a variety of delicious options for every palate.
What truly set the Alton Hotel apart, though, was the staff. Every employee we encountered was friendly, attentive, and genuinely eager to make our stay unforgettable.
If you’re looking for a hotel in San Francisco that combines comfort, luxury, and top-notch service—and one that treats your furry friend like royalty—the Alton Hotel is the place to be. We can’t wait to come back!

The room has exercise mat and umbrella. The staff provided dog bowls for our service dog, and even dog bed (even we dont need it). There’s also happy hour every 5-6 which serves unlimited drinks. This hotel made our stay really enjoyable. Thank you Kimpton Alton.

There is a nightly beer and wine happy hour and you can get records at the front desk for the in-room record players. The hotel has great proximity to everything - you can walk anywhere! The staff were great and valet was easy to use.
