"Housed in a historic former Civil War barracks perched above the bay, and set between the Golden Gate Bridge and Fisherman’s Wharf, this is a choice option for outdoorsy travellers."
Fodor's
"After years of dust, the hotel has finally completed a slew of enhancements, making this property a good choice for families and business travelers wanting to be on the fringes of Fisherman's Wharf."

Splurge on a wharf-facing room on floors three and above for a quieter night's sleep.

Star Service
"This hotel may lack the colorful local flavor and epicenter location of the superior Argonaut, but it is a dependable bet that easily bests the Holiday Inn." Full review

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."
i
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

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."
