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
