Rough Guide "The most famous of Nob Hill’s landmark hotels... fantastic views from the rooms."
Michelin Guide "This queen of the city retains a traditional charm."
Concierge "Rooms... in the original building have high ceilings and a rich sense of place, but not all have views; rooms in the vintage-1961 tower have jaw-dropping vistas yet feel more generic."
Fodor's "Amenities and special services (including... a newly crafted Intersect Media Lounge complete with multiplayer Guitar Hero and Wii Golf) keep loyal guests coming back." Full review
Insight Guides "You are greeted by a warm welcome, and an elegant atmosphere extends throughout, except perhaps at the tropical-themed Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar."
Oyster Luxury
"The Fairmont combines the history, cachet, and decor of a turn-of-the-20th-century grand old dame with the amenities, technology, and corporate-dominated clientele of a large chain property." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Famous for its gorgeous lobby and opulent public rooms, the Fairmont is the grandest of all the grand hotels at the top of Nob Hill."
Star Service "This remains the most commercial of the once elite Nob Hill hotels, but it is also the most impressive." Full review

""If you like being spoiled", this "legendary" "San Francisco classic" atop Nob Hill thrills, from the lobby's "amazing old-time elegance", to the "superior" staff that makes you "feel like royalty"."
Time Out "High atop Nob Hill, the Fairmont is the grand dame of San Francisco hotels, listed on the National Register of Historic Places." Full review

Rough Guide "The interior is surprisingly modern; suite-sized rooms have a calming feng shui vibe and are well appointed with huge televisions, internet and honesty bar."
Frommer's "Our local hip-hotel company, Joie de Vivre, revamped every one of this 1929 Spanish Revival hotel's 171 large, bright guest rooms in gorgeous modern style." Full review
Fodor's "Recently aquired by Marriott Autograph collection, Hotel Adagio has the steady backing of a trusted brand paired with boutique-hotel charm." Full review
Time Out "Now owned by Joie de Vivre, the Adagio has been in town in one incarnation or another since 1929." Full review
Star Service "The Hotel Adagio is the first San Francisco hotel to join Marriott International's Autograph Collection, and its post-makeover character is notably glitzier than it was while an independent." Full review
Gayot "Spanish Colonial Revival architecture provides a striking backdrop for this hotelâs modern style."
BlackBook "Old-school ornate 1929 Spanish Colonial Revival built at dawn of the Depression. This one feels right from the second you walk in."
Lonely Planet "Huge rooms and a snappy aesthetic set the Adagio apart." Full review
Afar Magazine "Two blocks from Union Square, Hotel Adagio is a stylish retreat from the frenetic energy of downtown San Francisco." Full review
U.S. News & World Report63.0
