 The Handlery Union Square San Francisco 

Family-owned for four generations

Mix up your sightseeing with some downtown downtime at The Handlery. This smart city choice sits in prime position for Union Square and has a hacienda style courtyard with an outdoor heated pool.

In an almost unbeatable central location, 4th generation owned The Handlery has been in business since the '40s. The Group’s ethos has always been to create inviting hotels that feel like home. Keeping to that philosophy, their Union Square hotel offers 377 well-appointed bedrooms spread between the historic building and the modern section and it has that rare city treasure of an outdoor heated pool. Macy’s is on your doorstep as are the posh shops and art galleries on fashionable Maiden Lane. You’re also only five minutes from the Powell-Hyde cable car line which takes you to the top of Lombard Street, the most crooked in the city thanks to its spine tingling hair pin turns.

Why we love The Handlery Union Square San Francisco

  • Built in 1928, you'll be staying in a slice of San Francisco's history

  • One of the few city centre hotels that has an outdoor heated pool

  • Shop-til-u-drop in the department stores and boutiques at Union Square

  • With easy access to a cable car stop, you can be in Fisherman's Wharf in 20 minutes
