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."
Concierge "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

"Everything you'd expect from a Ritz... all in the ritziest of San Francisco neighborhoods." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Fresh from a makeover (good-bye chintz, hello earth-toned geometric patterns), today’s Ritz, near Nob Hill, still has doting service." 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."

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."
