This hotel is just perfect. Nice, remodeled rooms. Awesome, friendly staff. Operation seems seemless . The lemon drop at the bar was yummy and the hot breakfast buffet is worth the price. The only negative is the parking price of almost $60 per night, but that is the going rate in SF.

This hotel is expensive. Average price per night is over $250. Their parking is extremely expensive - $54 for self park and $59 for valet parking. Huge hotel with over 2000 rooms. Front desk receptionist is efficient and nice. Lots of security guard around the hotel, and make you feel a bit nervous (may be due to the downtown area).... More

We spent three nights at this hotel. It was very large, very clean.impressive cream marble lobby. Our room was a good size, the bed was comfortable. There was a Starbucks in the lobby (that closed after early dinner.) Our single complaint is the location...as this was in the heart of the city it was noisy. All night long, very night... More

Hotel located a few blocks away from the main shopping centre, (Macy's etc.). Valet parking staff very prompt and courteus. Bit of a trek between car parking area and reception. Massive reception area which is well staffed. Check in prompt. Smoking floor could do with a refurbishment but rooms are a good size. Ice machines not on every floor. Check... More

I had a room on floor 43 facing North West with fabulous floor to ceiling views of the city, and I could just about see the bridge in the distance. The room was spacious and clean with all the amenities that I would expect. There was an educational conference on in the hotel during my stay, which meant that the... More

We stayed here a few weeks ago on our honeymoon from Australia. It was a beautiful hotel, gorgeous lobby, renovated rooms with an amazing view.

Impressed with the lobby design, the stairs leading down makes the atmosphere very welcoming! My room was on the 31st floor- amazing city view! 2 blocks away from union square, financial district and Bart, cable car!! The room and bathroom are spacious and clean and bright. Staff are professional and helpful!

I've stayed at this hotel many times over the last couple of years. Recently they started renovating rooms which is nice. I got "upgraded" to a renovated rooms and it definitely helped the experience as in the past I found the rooms depressing. The hotel is huge. The location is okay, near the center, easy access to everything but also... More

We stayed one night on a quick weekend trip. We needed an early check-in and got one, no problem at all, even though it was clear the hotel was heavily booked.
