The Hotel Stratford
The staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The room was small but very comfortable and clean. Hotel Stratford is central within easy reach of shops, eating places cable cars, buses and the subway station.

Great deal! The room was impeccable, recently renovated. The rest of the property is in the process of renovations, but no noise and location is perfect.

I loved the fact that it is super close to union square, everything is in walking distance. All the bus routes and 3-4 mins walk. Would definitely stay here. The only thing is that the hotel is not air conditioned. But you open the windows and room gets cold very quickly

Great location. Small, but modern and clean room. The only thing i didn't like was that i asked for housekeeping, but it didn't happen. I asked for an iron, it wasn't brought up to the room.

Honestly I had a great time outside of the hotel however during my stay it was extremely inconvenient to have to control my room lighting and fan by remote which was so small. Great restaurant, unique sink however the room lacked central air conditioning and could have atleast used a mini fridge. Only thing that really kept me going was the tap water downstairs and the occasional green tea. Room was also a Tad small so do not plan on sharing above 2 people.
