Rough Guide "South of Market highrise outpost of the pricey hotel chain that thinks it’s a nightclub."
Michelin Guide "The 'W' doesn't really stand for wonderful, witty, or wow, but all perfectly sum up the style of this corporateloving hotel."
Frommer's "As modern and hip as its fashionable clientele, this 31-story property suits its neighbors, which include the Museum of Modern Art, the Moscone Center, and the Metreon entertainment center." Full review
Concierge "The San Francisco outpost of the W hotel chain is popular with conventioneers for its proximity to the nearby Moscone Center... But the hotel is comfortable as well as trendy."
Fodor's "The epitome of cool urban chic... this swanky 31-story Starwood hotel owes some of its cachet to a prime location next door to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art." Full review

Fragrances waft throughout the hotel and guest rooms, so sensitive noses should call ahead to request special preparations.
Time Out "This trailblazing, chic and ever-so-slightly snooty urban hotel chain continues to expand around the country, but it hasn't yet reached the point at which hip and fashionable turns to yesterday's thing." Full review
Star Service "Monday through Friday this hotel is all about business, but come Friday the energy is fun and frivolous.

Gayot "Given the sophisticated and modernist decor of this SoMa property, it's fitting that the hotel is located adjacent to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art."
BlackBook "Sleekly appointed hotel has co-opted the concept of yuppie Wonderland. Three-story octagonal glass entrance leads straight to the lobby bar (brilliant)."

""If you're looking for a place to party", this "popular", "stylish" SoMa chain boutique is a "fun" "favorite", with "chic", "gorgeous" quarters."

"This 21- room converted mansion is set in beautiful gardens and features ample common areas, a sunny breakfast room and a sauna; rooms are decorated in flower prints with down comforters."
Frommer's "This is the best B&B option in the Castro, and one of the best in the entire city." Full review
Lonely PlanetTop choice
"The Castro's most stately gay digs occupy two side-by-side 100-year-old Edwardian mansions." Full review
Gayot "This 1909 Edwardian is a popular, gay-friendly, 21-room hotel in the heart of San Francisco's Castro District."
BlackBook "Gay-friendly guesthouse at edge of Castro, one block from Dolores Park."
Fodor's "Two yellow 1909 Edwardian houses enchant travelers wanting an authentic San Francisco experience." Full review

The Telegraph8.0
"A gay-friendly San Francisco hotel offering a genteel atmosphere, exceptionally friendly service, contemporary design and surrounding gardens, in the Mission district." Full review
Time Out "A couple of blocks from the heart of the Castro, this smartly renovated Victorian (with an Edwardian annex) caters to gay and lesbian travellers, but everyone is welcome." Full review
Travel + Leisure "This 21-room guest house on Church Street offers a young, boutique atmosphere nestled between two of SF's most vibrant neighborhoods: the Castro and the Mission"
