Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Hotel Bijou offers a pleasing art deco style, conveniently situated near Union Square and a short walk from Pier. The BART station is also just a couple of minutes away. Rooms are a comfortable size and feature extras like an iron and ironing board, and some guests have noted that street noise can be an issue, though earplugs are provided. While the breakfast is simple, it's an effective option to start the day.

poor breakfastdangerous area
The advertised breakfast was a joke. It included only a banana, a small yoghurt, and some tiny muffins (I was expecting more!). The man at check-in told us to avoid going right outside the front door because the area is dangerous. The hotel promised a glass of wine at check-in. I did not get it until the second day, when my friend went to grab coffee and the staff offered it to him.
