Fodor's "A green-certified hotel, the boutique Galleria Park has a dedicated clientele and is particularly packed on weekdays." Full review
Oyster Upper-middle-range
"A budget-friendly boutique hotel on a convenient but unstylish block off Union Square, the 177-room Galleria Park Hotel has nice touches like free Wi-Fi and an "urban garden" terrace." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Opened in 1911, this eight-floor Art Nouveau hotel is located between the financial district and Moscone Convention Center, just a six-minute walk from Union Square." Full review
Time Out "Next to the Crocker Galleria mall, this boutique hotel built in 1911 was looking a bit frayed until the Joie de Vivre chain recently snapped it up and poured in $7 million of updates." Full review
Star Service "Located two blocks north of Market Street and three long blocks from Union Square, this hotel continues to provide comfortable courtside accommodations for tourists, shoppers and middle management." Full review

Avoid second-floor rooms because function space on the same level infringes on their privacy.
Gayot "The predecessor to this 177-room, Financial District boutique property was the landmark Sutter Hotel, which opened its doors in 1911."

Be sure to spend a little quiet time in the Sitting Room, where coffee and tea are always brewing and scrumptious handmade biscotti make an appearance every afternoon.
Frommer's "On one of the most sought-after blocks of residential property in all of San Francisco, the Drisco, built in 1903, is one of the city's best small hotels." Full review
Fodor's "Pretend you're a resident of one of the wealthiest residential neighborhoods in San Francisco at this understated, elegant 1903 Edwardian hotel." Full review

Star Service "Guests returning to this hotel, located at Broderick, one block east of Divisadero and two blocks west of the Presidio, jealously guard what is perhaps the best-kept secret in the city." Full review

Request a south-facing unit for the best natural light.
Gayot "Pacific Heights is the "gold coast" of San Francisco, a desirable address where colorful mansions both modern and old-school stand side by side."
BlackBook "Mad dogs, Englishmen, Ashley Judd and notable variety of upper-crusts make 1903 Drisco their home-away-from-mansion."
