The Pickwick Hotel

We chose this hotel for the location. However, it was disgusting inside. The curtains were ripped and stained. When I called the front desk and asked to be moved before unpacking, considering housekeeping and maintenance wouldn't want to come change them at night, they gave a very scripted shock of not knowing and "actually" checked before saying there were no more rooms. The next day, they offered to move us but I told them how inconvenient that would be now, why can't they just change the curtains, like it's not hard. Never heard from them again. The paint job is disgusting too, regardless of how old the hotel is.

Good location for sightseeing but I would not come again. From homeless across the street to constant street noise it was just okay. The parking situation could be improved for guests of hotel. No discount given at garage not belonging to the hotel and the attached garage is a hot mess! Good for a quick stay but not for a long one

I would give this hotel a zero rating if it were possible. I booked the Pickwick well in advance (early December) of my conference at the Moscone (late February, 2026). I was traveling with my student to attend the conference (we are both females) and I had reserved a room with 2 queen beds to cut costs. 10 days before my conference, the Pickwick informed me that they would have to switch us to a king room due to a "software" issue. !!!!!!! I was quite upset. After two days, they called me and said that they could give me a king room the first night and 2 queen beds the second night (we were sharing for two nights only). That was not good enough so I cancelled my reservation. I found another hotel that cost $140 more so I asked the Pickwick to send me a check for $140. They did not. I chose the Pickwick because it is close to the Moscone, but they treat people very badly. Don't reserve there - they are not trustworthy.

We stayed at the Pickwick hotel during the Super Bowl week, we attended the Pro Bowl at Moscone Center which was only a 5-6 minute walk away. Upon arrival the hotel was clean & front desk staff was welcoming & kind. They got us checked in a few hours early which was perfect after our long drive. Our room was small but obviously expected being in the vibrant city of San Francisco most importantly our room was clean, we had a nice view of the city streets and skyline. The beds were comfortable and we had a mini fridge in the room, no microwave but we didn’t need one for our one night stay. We definitely recommend staying at Pickwick if you are staying in the SOMA area of San Francisco, California
