"The most famous of Nob Hill’s landmark hotels... fantastic views from the rooms."
"This queen of the city retains a traditional charm."
"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."
"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
"You are greeted by a warm welcome, and an elegant atmosphere extends throughout, except perhaps at the tropical-themed Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar."

"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."

"Small, but sumptuous... service is attentive and polite."
"The boutique Prescott Hotel has some big things going for it. The staff treats you like royalty, rooms are attractively unfrilly and masculine, the location... is perfect." Full review
"Housed in a 1917 building within a mile of Union Square, Moscone Center, and the Powell Street cable cars, this Kimpton hotel combines a convenient location with a multitude of little extras." Full review
"Business travelers predominate at this sumptuous hotel that resembles a gentleman’s club, with dark wooden walls and a large fireplace in the entrance lobby."
"Across the street from the towering, commercially oriented JW Marriott, this crisply maintained contemporary design hotel fits nicely in the upper-middle ranks." Full review
"The hotel displays a masculine blend of neoclassical and Empire architecture, and there is a members-only feeling to the 164 suites and smallish rooms."
"Built in the early 1800s, this post-Gold Rush building first became a hotel in 1918." Full review
