Oyster Upscale
"This 136-room historic hotel in swanky Nob Hill has an attentive staff, a quiet, intimate atmosphere, and old-world grandeur to spare." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Each of the spacious rooms is individually decorated – many have a wet bar, and some have kitchens. Indulge yourself at the world-famous Nob Hill Spa, located on the upper floors of the hotel."
Star Service "The historic establishment offers the most intimate and distinguished feel of any of the four hotels topping the hill." Full review

For the nominal increase in the rates, avoid the middling deluxe rooms and head up the next rung to the spacious luxury rooms.

"Superb, sprawling B&B set in two adjoining historic Victorians."
Fodor's "Decked out in ornate poster beds, opulent Oriental rugs, and precious Victorian artifacts, guest quarters are everything from cozy... to spacious enough to fit a family." Full review
Lonely Planet "The stately Inn San Francisco occupies an elegant 1872 Italianate-Victorian mansion, impeccably maintained and packed with period antiques." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Set in an 1872 mansion, the 21-room property brims with authentic Victorian details... minus the chintz (not a weathered doily in sight)." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The owner of this 1872 Victorian Mansion will charm you with hospitality. The spacious rooms are individually decorated in Victorian themes."
Time Out "This friendly Italianate Victorian, built in 1872, invites you to sprawl about in its beautifully restored sitting rooms, rather than just admire them." Full review
BlackBook "Victorian to the hilt. Beautifully preserved 1872 Italianate mansion, once a farm breeding champion racehorses and now the oldest existing hotel in town."
Zagat4.3
"There's a "romantic and relaxing" vibe to this "gorgeous" Victorian Mission mansion, as "honeymooners" cozy up in the "warm", "comfortable" quarters."
Oyster Budget
"This inn is a solid choice for travelers looking for a more authentic, out-of-the-way San Francisco experience." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Leaning into Victorian-era decor, this hotel on Mansion Row has just 27 rooms. For accommodations, guests have their choice of small rooms, medium rooms, spacious rooms, or the inn's garden cottages."
