"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."

"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
"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."
"This remains the most commercial of the once elite Nob Hill hotels, but it is also the most impressive." Full review

"Still retains its Victorian style in the lobby with marble floors, wrought-iron banisters, and rich wood paneling." Full review
"A gem of a newly renovated hotel. A distinguished-looking Victorian lobby leads up to spruced-up, modern rooms that are not large, but chic and comfortable, with clever use of space." Full review
"The Mosser's claim to fame is simple: It is the only hotel in San Francisco that has a state-of-the-art recording studio on the premises."
"Can’t afford the W or Clift, but would much rather go the IKEA route than suffer quilted floral spreads? The Mosser is the answer."

"This quaint hotel is a spectacular deal...the rooms are tiny and the en suite showers are about 3 square feet. Rates get lower if you opt to use a shared bathroom" Full review
