Rough Guide
"The place to stay if you win the lottery (or someone else is paying), this ultra-luxe hotel on Market St affords spectacular views across the city. Its plush rooms are the ultimate indulgence."
Michelin Guide
"Nobody does modern luxury quite like this straight-away winner."
Concierge
"The superluxurious Four Seasons San Francisco is a sanctuary so serene it's hard to believe it's in the heart of downtown."

Though the understated greige decor successfully straddles the line between contemporary and traditional, with clean lines and zero clutter, it lacks color and splash: If you like fringe and chintz, choose the Ritz-Carlton instead.

Time Out
"Essentially, California's version of an English B&B, and how you just reacted to that sentence will be pretty much how you react to the inn itself." Full review
Star Service
"Thanks to its unbending B&B aesthetic, it continues to lure a repeat clientele despite its limited facilities. " Full review
Gayot
