Time Out "Part of the Personality Hotels mini chain, this striking property was undergoing a transformation at the time of writing." Full review
Star Service "The location is out of the tourist traffic but close enough for a comfortable walk to the cable car, and public transportation is available in this neighborhood." Full review
Gayot "Formerly the York Hotel, this property is ideally situated in Nob Hill near shops and restaurants."
Lonely Planet "It's a 10-minute walk to get anywhere, but you get more bang for your buck than right at Union Square – and bragging rights to a bit of movie history." Full review
Jetsetter "Whimsical Hitchcock-inspired boutique property in San Francisco’s Nob Hill neighborhood." Full review
Frommer's "Hitchcock buffs might recognize this small, mid-range hotel from his movie Vertigo...the hotel embraces its cinematic history, with both rooms and lobby featuring mid-century furnishings" Full review
