Recent Hotel Vertigo Review: "I chose this hotel mostly based on the price, the location and the fact that my husband wrote a report on the movie back in college. The desk staff are very friendly (Gregory is the best concierge we've ever had!). The renovated rooms are great (I've heard through other reviews that the traditional rooms are not as nice, so book a "Vertigo" room instead of a traditional room to get the renovated ones). The tub/shower is a little bit narrow, but it's doable. The rest of the bathroom is very nice and they even have cotton balls, bathrobes and a hairdryer for your use. The bed is a platform bed and it is pretty comfortable, but was a little too firm for our tastes. But, after wandering around SF all day, we still slept great. The mini-fridge came in very handy during our stay because we were able to get some juice and some breakfast items to have (they don't serve breakfast at the hotel, just coffee and tea in the lobby). The hotel is very quiet, which is a plus.
The decor (at least in the renovated sections) is really cool. It was kind of fun to find the references to the film, and we even went to a few of the places in SF where they shot the movie (Legion of Honor, etc.).
The hotel is very convenient to the Muni buses and only a few blocks walk away from the historic cable cars. The Powell Bart station is a little farther, but still doable if you are walking.
The one complaint we had was that this is a little close to the Tenderloin area (an area that we were told to avoid) than we would have liked. We thought it was closer to Japantown than it was, and that was our fault for not reading the map properly. But, I think as long as you don't walk around the Tenderloin alone at night, you should be fine.
If you are vegetarian, we highly recommend the Millennium Restaurant and Golden Era Vegetarian Restaurant which are only a few blocks away from the hotel.
Room Tip: Make sure to book a Vertigo room, not traditional."

Nearby, City Hall’s golden dome sparkles amid the Civic Center’s concrete gray. The live arts thrive at the San Francisco War Memorial & Performing Arts Center, one of the nation’s largest. A five-tiered Peace Pagoda marks Japantown. Castro District, the city’s main gay neighborhood, is a short ride away, as is Haight-Ashbury, the counterculture bastion that is a gateway to Golden Gate Park.
