"This small, European-style pensione is one of the best budget hotels in San Francisco." Full review
Fodor's Fodor's

Lonely Planet Lonely Planet
"One of the city's best values, the San Remo dates to 1906 and is long on old-fashioned charm." Full review

"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."

"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
Time Out Time Out
"Although the rooms are on the small side and the spotless shower rooms are shared (there's also one bath), you would be hard-pressed to find a finer hotel in San Francisco at this price." Full review

"South of Market highrise outpost of the pricey hotel chain that thinks it’s a nightclub."

"The 'W' doesn't really stand for wonderful, witty, or wow, but all perfectly sum up the style of this corporateloving hotel."

"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 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."

Fragrances waft throughout the hotel and guest rooms, so sensitive noses should call ahead to request special preparations.
Time Out 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

"Monday through Friday this hotel is all about business, but come Friday the energy is fun and frivolous. " Full review

"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."

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