Hotel Zeppelin

Hotel Zeppelin stands at 545 Post Street, just west of Union Square and a few minutes on foot from the Theater District's stages on Geary Street. It is a rock-and-roll themed boutique hotel in the Z Hotels group, with Sage Hospitality named on its official page, and that page shows the same address and front-desk number as this listing. Antonio Flores is the manager on record.

Rooms, food and extras

Beyond the guest rooms, the hotel's site lists a game lounge, a fitness center, valet parking and a pet-friendly policy that greets four-legged guests with a welcome toy and waste bags; for each pet stay the hotel makes a donation to a local humane society. Its restaurant and bar, PLS on Post, serves soul food and shakes alongside craft beer and spirits, so a late dinner does not mean leaving the building.

Booking tips

Whether you book direct or through a travel site, read the rate terms: cancellation deadlines, the nightly valet charge and any pet fee are the usual surprises in downtown San Francisco. Rooms in older buildings near Union Square vary in size, so if space matters, ask about square footage or a higher floor away from street noise. Request an accessible room when you reserve rather than at check-in, and mention a pet at booking. If you land early or fly out late, ask about check-in and check-out times and whether the front desk will hold bags.

Getting around from Post Street

Union Square shopping, the Powell Street cable cars, the Chinatown gate on Grant Avenue and Moscone Center are all within walking distance. Powell Street BART connects to Daly City, South San Francisco and the airport to the south and to Oakland and Alameda across the bay, and the Ferry Building boats reach Sausalito, so the hotel works as a base for the wider region as well as San Francisco itself.

Call the front desk at 415-563-0303 for reservations or questions about the room you have booked.
