"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.

Michelin Guide
"Restored with European charm, your home-away-from-home here comes with a featherbed and down comforter, a cozy robe and soft slippers, and a marble bath with a rain showerhead."

"Inside an iconic, 100-year-old columned Nob Hill landmark, the Ritz-Carlton is San Francisco's most formal luxury hotel."

Because of the building's historic status, hotel designers weren't allowed to make major structural alterations when the hotel opened in 1991, so each room is different in size and shape: Plan to spend time with the reservationist to choose the right one for you.
Fodor's
"A stunning tribute to beauty and attentive, professional service." Full review
Lonely Planet
"Expensive hotels usually look it, but the Ritz-Carlton is off the charts. With its palatial, white-columned demeanor, it more closely resembles a city hall or a Greco-Roman monument." Full review

DK Eyewitness
"It is housed in an historic Beaux Arts building in an entire block along California Street, near the top of Nob Hill."
Time Out
"The Ritz-Carlton has been the de facto choice for dignitaries and heads of state for years." Full review
Star Service
"This hotel may be located one steep block down from the crest of Nob Hill, but thanks to the confusion and cost-cutting going on up there it is currently the best on the hill." Full review
Gayot
"This stately and majestic property was built in 1909 and occupies a full square block."
