Taj Campton Place Review

The room was fine not wow ! But the 2 Michelin star restaurant was the worst omg, doesn't worth a penny, was so basic no creativity and I couldn't even complete the 2nd main course ( not delicious at all) my husband told me that I cook better than this chef :) or maybe the chef wasn't there because the food was so basic.

There's a very specific demographic at this hotel - I'd say generally it's 38+. We got this place under the Fine Hotels and Resort Program. I had better experience with other hotels under this program.

The accommodation and staff was super helpful and very knowledge on everything that we requested.

The complementary coffee/tea had too much fine print to understand what was complementary and ultimately showed up on my invoice.

The gym is outdoor/patio style. It was clean but dated. No pool. The gym had lots of clean towels, fruit and water for those who needed it.

The room we got under the AMEX program was average. When I say average - I think I was expecting to be "wowed" with the furnishing. Sheets were clean, piles of pillows and the mattress was comfortable. Windows opened and were brilliantly sound proof.

The bathroom was nice. Above average size and plenty of amenities to go around. There were steps leading up to the tub/shower - not sure what that was all about - it was different and I approached the stairs cautiously as I exited the tub.

No draft beer at the bar. I was told it was cocktails only with bottle beers. Again - the demographic at the bar was specific, 38+.

Breakfast at this place was above average. AMEX included a $30 pp credit during this period. The service was great, the menu was short and sweet. Coffee could use some work. The coffee could be a matter of taste. But from a bitterness scale for coffee (not sure if that's a thing) from McD (smooth drinking) to Starbucks (rough), the coffee ranked below SBUX. Lucky for the folks staying at this place - Starbucks was right next door.

Would I stay at this place again - probably not. Would I stay at this place using the AMEX program - probably not. Would I recommend staying at this place... sure, it was clean, comfortable and secure.

If you have been to India and visited Taj hotels there, Campton Place is definitely not as grand or elegant. The main restaurant was closed so we had drinks at the Bar and Bistro. The food was good and reasonably priced but the space was tiny and the decor was not that great. The main restaurant looked a lot nicer.

The restaurant is great. For Taiwanese the taste is very delicious and special.

Most accommodating staff !! Very centrally located !!

I stayed here for two nights over a weekend, as I had business in the city on the Monday. My flight arrived earlier than the check in time, but the room was ready on arrival. It's a particularly nice touch to be greeted by name by both the doorman and reception. The room was not particularly big, but perfect for one. Bathroom was huge! The location is perfect, close to Union Square. I didn't eat in the restaurant, but I did have room service one night and the Kerala Fish curry was delicious, and there was plenty of it. The room didn't have a view, but it was quiet and very comfortable.

Love stopping by the bar for a quick bite and a cocktail or two.

A little expensive but really disappointed. The class! Exceptional flavors

Easy to find. Food was good. Service was mediocre. Expected more explanation for my meal. Other than that I had a phenomenal time. Felt thoroughly taken care of

The restaurant is wonderful 2 michelin star food, top level service Prices are great given the quality

Never stayed there. I work for uber and picked up passenger there

Great location, well appointed rooms and hotel in general. Very comfortable beds, and many hotel provided comforts (robe, slippers, minibar, etc)

Nice bistro, nice selection of food. Great cocktails

Amazing service and food. Would recommend to anyone

This place is amazing... The service is beyond perfection just as the previous review stated you feel like royalty... They have an artichoke soup that is the best soup I've ever had... I made my husband bring me twice just to have the soup again!

Pricey ... but worth it... If you want to go super upscale (you know, two Michelin stars upscale) on your Indian, don't miss this amazing restaurant. Prix fix only, they have a 4-course menu and a 6 course. Both wines by the glass, 1/2bottle and bottle are wide-ranged and paired well with the meal. Vegetarian dishes as well as lamb, beef and seafood are available. Black Cod (which was sustainably sourced!!) and lamb (cooked perfectly medium rare) were highlights of the menu. The various off menu small bites had a wide-range of flavor profiles to expand your pallet a bit. I'd save my money and some day come back for the 6 course extravaganza!

Great Union Sq. destination. Very friendly and helpful staff. The room was well appointed but didn't have a good view. Only complaint is that gym is outside on a patio and doesn't have many machines.

Elegant take on Indian Cuisine. Service is phenomenal.

Great restaurant for Excellent Indian food.
The decor is very pleasant
the service is outstanding.

Nice room. Huge bathroom. Just there to sleep, so no review on facilities.

If you enjoy 5 star treatment with 5 star rooms, then this is your home away from home. Everything from staff to on site restaurant was fantastic. Even during the hectic times of Super Bowl 50, the staff were able to look after each and every need. I would absolutely book here again. Great job Taj Campton staff.

Great taste, delicious food, service was perfect. They also gave us a complementary dessert as it was our anniversary. Each food item was unique and ingredients were so fresh.

We have been staying at this hotel for many years around Christmas time. The rooms are fine - clean and great sheets, however, the bar and bistro have terrible service. We have had the wait extremely long for our food at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It took way too long for them to bring water, bread, etc. and the waiters are rude and inattentive. This is completely unacceptable service at this price point. The only reason I am giving this place 2 stars is because of the amazing doorman who goes above and beyond with the patrons.

Superb experience. Delicious food, abit heavy on the pocket but it's worth it

Attentive service, more intimate structure and great location

Stopped in at the bar for a snack and pre dinner drinks. Service was great

It was clean and newly renovated hotel across the grand hyatt. Spacious room with a large bathroom but view is not as good. Still a good recommendation for a business trip

Great location , internet is unreliable, rooms are well appointed ! Gym is basic! A boutique hotel!

Service was mediocre at best and our "upgrade" was seriously underwhelming.

Intimate dining room, beautiful and great service. Amazing food.

Terrible Booked through priceline what i thought was the price I was paying for the two night. After leaving three days later I'm charged an extra 79 for the two night if you are going to add resort fee to every booking wouldn't it be beneficial that you are upfront about it rather than charging people later and not even tell them. It's a shame that you treat your guests that way i would've been fine if i was told about it I'm not ok if you charge me just cause you have my credit card on file. Shame on you never staying here again. Wall Street Journal reported hotels fees have gone up 400% and hotels wonder why Airbnb it's taking you to cleaner. Hope you all go out of Business.

I was not happy with this stay, but I want to make clear that the staff are very nice.

Taj Campton Place markets itself as top-class, but our room was small, get very old and dingy, was poorly lighted, and had absolutely no view. I was anything but impressed. The minifridge didn't even have a freezer section.

The gym was terrible considering they actually charge a 'resort fee'

But by far the worst aspect of the stay is all the extra hidden fees they charge you with. $30/day resort fee, $75/day parking (seriously..) can't eat breakfast for less than $30. $30 for internet.. you might as well just double the price of the room.

Also they brag about their restaurant all day long.. "Michelin " I had an omelette for breakfast, it was super dry and looked like it came out of a machine. I asked for some sauce/salsa to give it a little flavor and they brought out ketchup..

Anyway, staff were nice so I have them 1 more star than they deserve

why was the dining room almost empty on a friday evening??? this is a very, very fine restaurant!!

2 Michelin star restaurant modern cuisine with hints of Indian spices. Went with the spice route and the food was indeed amazing. Dishes were well presented, service was good, not great. I would say the timing of the experience could have been better, but overall, worth a try.

Finishes are a bit rough. Still don't get why hotels this expensive still don't offer included breakfast when much less expensive ones do.

A true five-star hotel with an amazing view and location.

Charming place. Sinks were clogged and the hot water ran out mid-shower, both mornings at 8:15am. Guessing the plumbing is ancient. Otherwise, comfy with great staff.

Nice central spot for a meeting in SF. Old school hotel with good passed apps during the reception.

Had drinks and snacks at the bar. Didi was a great bartender, made excellent cocktails and was very funny. The staff was very professional. Five stars.

Best thing was the reception staff. Nice rooms. Wish the restaurant was open.

Service was awesome from doormen to concierge to front desk to room. Really enjoyed staying here.

The ambience is ok. Food was good, but not up to a Michelin star restaurant.

This is a stunning boutique hotel in San Francisco.
Excellent service and comfortable and clean hotel.

Great place however the dishes could have been more interesting as it is indeed a 2 michelin star restaurant

Deluxe
Location, attention and quality of the facilities

This review is for the Service at the restaurant, food was good(that's why 2 stars). I made a brunch reservation to celebrate my husband's 30th birthday. They forgot to bring us half the appetizers that we ordered and brought us the main course directly. We had to remind them after which those dishes were served. I had also requested a dessert with a candle and happy birthday twice (first while entering and second while ordering the dessert) which they IGNORED and brought out the cake just as is. I had to remind them in front of my husband which was embarrassing to say the least. They forgot to add an appetizer to the bill which i brought to their attention. No Apologies from the staff, felt very uninterested. VERY Disappointed, left a bad taste in our mouths and we will not be returning.

The rooms are adequate but the room service is totally unsuitable.
It was indeed impossible to serve me a breakfast early under the pretext that the kitchens were closed.
The manager refused to receive me to find a solution and let the hostess take off alone.
So I went to catch my flight without having breakfast.
I am very disappointed and does not recommend this establishment which on the one hand is not able to propose a service adapted to a business clientele and on the other hand is directed by a manager who is inaccessible to solve the problems.

We stayed at this boutique hotel for 5 nights and could not have been happier! Great location, very comfortable bed, large bathroom, and delicious food in the main restaurant! Everyone that works here is very friendly and helpful!!

Quiet little bar in Hotel. Great bartenders and nice atmosphere

a nice spot for quiet meal. unpretencious and not trying to out do everybody else.

Great room and friendly staff. I should have put the do not disturb sign to use however as they were constantly coming in to check the mini bar and towels.

Bar none this place is the best!!! Ask for Dante in the bar!!

I HAVE STAYED, IN TAJ GROUP OF HOTELS -- EXCELLENT SERVICE & HOSPITALITY.

Nice restaurant, with upscale Indian food.
Pretty pricey wine list.
The Hotel itself is very nice.

Great location, clean rooms and most importantly the house keeping do an excellent job. Stayed here for two nights and already booked my next stay here. The staff at the front desk, lobby, bar is extremely friendly and helpful. I had the breakfast inclusive with my stay, the only problem was that the staff at the restaurant during breakfast wasn t friendly at all. They were ready to even accommodate any minor changes in my meal.
Would definitely recommend this hotel for stay.

Classy bar... Professional Bartenders who know their trade.

Wonderful white glove hotel in Union Square. Great service. Also a wonderful Michelin-starred restaurant. Can t speak enough good things about this hotel and how pleasant it is.

Lunch menu was awesome. Worth the price. Service was rush with no patience. Waiter seemed to focus on getting the job done than giving you good service. I had been going to their dinner service. It has been become less impressive. So decides to come for lunch. Good value.

Amazing Guest services, room and restaurant. In-room dining is awesome!

We went to SF for a weekend get away. The Taj is in a great location, in the heart of the city. Accommodations are top tier. Sunday breakfast in the restaurant was first class. And, service was excellent. We loved everything about our stay at the Taj.

Very nice rooms. Room service great. But $75 for parking? Also in the dining room they added 20% gratituty but did not tell us ( so we tipped 20% on top of the total. Also my wife had the continental breakfast which includes "toast and 2 pastries" which she got the first day but not th second day. (we were told no you get 2 items) Anyways felt nickel'ed and dimed.

Excellent service quality with renovated rooms. I had AC problems.

I cannot say enough good things about the Taj!! The service and staff in every area of the hotel was suburb! It starts with a warm welcome from the doorman and ends with a friendly goodbye from the doorman. The front desk was patient and very understanding and accommodating when our debit card was declined and we had to call the bank. We asked if there were any complimentary upgrades available and they took their time to locate something for us. Our room was absolutely lovely! The bed was warm and comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and had a big tub that allowed my wife and me to soak together after a long day of walking and sightseeing. When we finished, bathing robes and slippers were waiting for us. We had this cool window seat overlooking the street below. We enjoyed sitting there with our complimentary coffee and muffins and watching the busy people below. To our surprise, the window opened allowing the cool refreshing Pacific air and the sounds of the city in. It s the little things that make a difference! When we returned to our room after being out for the day the maid service had neatly wrapped up all of our power cables with a tie. We did not eat at the restaurant, but dining room looked amazing we just ran out of time. We did have cocktails in the bistro, and they were delicious!! Location, location, everything is within walking distance. Great shopping or in our case window shopping right outside the door in Union Square, An easy walk to Chinatown and North Beaches Little Italy and Nob Hill. Or catch the Cable Car down to Fisherman s Wharf. My wife and I started a hospitality business 35 years ago that became iconic. We understand hospitality and are very critical, but this is one of those rare gems that sparkle that leaves you satisfied in every way!! Kudos to the entire staff, job well done!!! We will be back!!!

Offers South Indian fusion fine dining experience with unique flavour.

Fabulous food perfectly finished and great service. Greatly enjoyed my meal. Servers were always attentive and friendly. Food was so well presented and finished.

Excellent place. Two parking options valet at the hotel for $75/day or walk 1 block and drop it off at a valet garage through the hotel for $35/day. Both through the hotel!

Excellent hotel and amazing services. They treat you like royalty.

The bar and bistro was a nice fun place that serves the yummiest Lime lychee cocktails, their butter chicken is awesome too

Phenomenal service and exquisite suites. They will always greet you with your last name and respect, enjoy the ease of access to Union Square and all the luxury abound.
