Excellent location, few steps to Chinatown, a few blocks to Union Square, BART and cable cars. Clean room and bathroom, bearable noise (came to room so tired, didn't even pay attention to that))), friendly staff, cheap rate. Would stay there again without doubt, were very pleased. more

This is the conclusion of our tour across america. The hotel was comfortable and just right for our needs. The location was nice just right really for a short walk down to union square or simply jump on the various transport available. What a shame there are so many beggars and drunks around. more

My wife and I stayed at the Baldwin five nights at the end of September, 2008. The location is ideal, although in a vibrant neighborhood in a bustling city there was the obvious nighttime noise.

Also, it is just a block away from Chinatown (you can literally see the Chinatown gate from the hotel doorway), North Beach, and... more

My hubby & I took a 5 day trip to SF & stayed at the Baldwin. We couldn't have been more pleased! Sure the room was a little dated, but it only adds to its charm. We booked a "double" room, thinking that meant a queen size bed, but I think it was a full size. But we made do... more

After what felt like months of trawling the pages of trip advisor, we finally decided on the Baldwin Hotel as it fitted in with our requirements of budget and location and had good reviews by fellow trip advisor members.
