Rough Guide "Known for its chatty, helpful staff... Rooms are cosy and chintzy."
Frommer's "This small, European-style pensione is one of the best budget hotels in San Francisco." Full review
Fodor's "Rooms are small but charming, with lace curtains, forest-green-painted wood floors, and brass beds and other antique furnishings." Full review
Lonely Planet "One of the city's best values, the San Remo dates to 1906 and is long on old-fashioned charm." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The only budget hotel in the area, San Remo is a well-maintained Italianate building, and one of the first to be constructed following the earthquake and fire of 1906."
Gayot "This lovely, restored Victorian hotel was built by the founder of Bank of America to house maritime workers displaced by the earthquake of 1906."

"While charming, the San Remo's Victorian style -- with shared bathrooms, narrow hallways, and no elevator or air-conditioning -- is not for everyone." Full review

Rough Guide "This groundbreaking hotel is a leader in energy-efficient environmental design... the hotel has much going for it, including a full slate of electronics and organic bath products in each room."
Michelin Guide "This eco-chic boutique hotel brings a much-needed dose of oxygen to the hustle and bustle of downtown."
Frommer's "Going green doesn't mean you have to cut back on comfort... Egyptian cotton linen on the king-size bed, real feather down in the pillows, Aveda bath products, and plush spa-style robes in the closet." Full review
Concierge "Best of all, this Union Square hotel saves not only the planet but also your wallet."
Fodor's "Feel virtuous and eco-friendly by staying at the first San Francisco hotel built to environmentally stringent LEED specifications." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Set in San Francisco’s tiny, unofficial French Quarter, the Orchard Garden feels exactly like a spiffy little Left Bank hotel—one that’s LEED certified." Full review
Time Out "Opened in 2007, the Orchard Garden was only the fourth hotel in the world to win LEED... certification, meaning it was designed according to strict environmental standards." Full review
Star Service "This well-situated hotel is in the middle of the so-called French Quarter and just a few doors from the carved Foo dogs guarding Chinatown's ornate dragon gate; Union Square is a four-block walk." Full review

The granite-trimmed baths have organic EO toiletries, robes (slippers upon request) and hair dryers.
Gayot "Opened in 2006, this 86-room hotel was built from the ground up following environmentally sensitive building practices."
BlackBook "Elegant lobby, restaurant and spacious uber-insulated guest rooms decorated in soothing colors and fabrics."
