Rough Guide "The fairly sizeable rooms are a relative bargain for Nob Hill."
Frommer's "The Stanford Court has maintained a long and discreet reputation as one of San Francisco's most exclusive hotels." Full review
Oyster Upscale
"A historic property renovated in 2008, the Renaissance Stanford Court has several of the less endearing quirks of an older building but few of its vestigial charms." Full review
Star Service "This hotel is positioned firmly in the convention category, relegated to middle management and midrange tourists clawing to experience what is now Nob Hill's skeletal luxury. " Full review
Zagat4.3
"It's an "absolute pleasure" to stay nestled "on top of Nob Hill" at this "classy" Renaissance boutique exuding "charm and elegance" for an "expensive" price that's "well worth" it."
Fodor's "The rooms, decorated in warm tones and furnished with handsome leather chairs and tasteful modern accessories, offer additional elegant touches like 300-thread-count Frette sheets." Full review
Gayot "Located on the Powell Street cable car line, this hotel projects an image of refined luxury."
The Telegraph7.0
"Sitting atop historically wealthy Nob Hill, this revamped boutique brings a modern millennial touch to the area, though its best asset remains the setting – sweeping city views and rumbling cable cars." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler Readers' Choice Award
"The hotel still has the classic fountain in its port-cochere, but the lobby has a far more modern feel...all guest rooms; all 400 are now done in stark whites, subtle grays, and bold blues" Full review

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
Zagat4.3
""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
