Upscale
"A historic property renovated in 2008, the Renaissance Stanford Court has several of the less endearing quirks of an older building but few of its vestigial charms." Full review
Star Service
"This hotel is positioned firmly in the convention category, relegated to middle management and midrange tourists clawing to experience what is now Nob Hill's skeletal luxury. " Full review

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."
