We stayed at the Rex on two different occasions. The first room was a standard room on the 7th floor with no view. It was very cute and comfortable but on the small side. Second time we upgraded to an Executive King and it was great. On the 5th floor and with views of an interior treed space that was very lovely. Both rooms have very thoughtfully chosen amenities in the bath and in the room. Nice flat screened TVs, QTips and cotton balls, an adjustable shower head, lots of pillows and a woolen throw for comfort. Lots of artwork and the fabulous painted lamp shades make the rooms very non-corporate and very stylish. The nightly wine hour is really nice and the wine poured is very good. Atmosphere in the bar is again really cute and welcoming. Great place and we got a good deal on the room thru Travelocity the first time and by bargaining with the desk the second time. We'd definitely stay again any time we don't have a car in tow.

Stayed 3 nights in a single queen room. Smaller than a normal hotel room and no view to speak of (window facing west). Didn't feel cramped, but definitely not a place just to ""hang out."" Ideal place to stay if you're going to be out and about a lot because it's very close to many cool things (Union Square, Cable car, BART station). Room was clean. Didn't eat at the restaurant. Overall, a nice, quaint place to crash after seeing San Fran.

What a huge disappointment! When I first checked in I was very optimistic. I was willing to overlook the fact that my shower didn't drain properly or the fact that the bedding was a major step below the major hotels because I like to stay at boutique hotels when possible. I stayed at Hotel Rex for 3 nights on business. When I returned to the hotel on my third night, at approximately 11:00PM, my key didn't work. I went down to the front desk only to find out that they had MOVED MY BAGS AND ALL OF MY PERSONAL BELONGINGS TO A DIFFERENT ROOM WITHOUT MY PERMISSION! Needless to say I was extremely upset. The manager proceeded to tell me that the room I was in was booked for a wedding party and they had no choice but to move me to another room. They claim they made several attempts to contact me however I never received a phone call, one e-mail was sent however I didn't receive it! Regardless, I am still furious over this! Never before in my 20+ years of travel have I been treated this way. They offered to comp my 3rd night, nice gesture hey! I urged the manager to comp my entire stay or I was going to fight this with AMEX to no avail, they were so pompus that they in fact billed me for my first two nights...
Business travelers beware! If it happened to me, it can happen to you...
Stay at the Grand Hyatt right across the street. It's cheaper and the rooms are much nicer! -

A visit to the past with elegant club mood, artsy decor, a great library/bar, and close to everything in Union Square. The staff were classy and attentive, the rooms small but well appointed, with Jazz CDs on the bedside table, comfy bed, nice bedding, large bathroom. The TV looked old, but I never turned it on. The restaurant was pretty good. I loved it and will stay again. Felt like I walked off the street back to 1940. A nice break from all the ""resorts"" that look the same.
