"Everything about the stay was first class. We checked in early and and our room was ready. McKenzie was friendly and very helpful at check-in. Our room was clean and beautifully maintained. We frequented the bar downstairs each night of our stay and were treated like royalty by our host Bryce and by our servers Kabin and Anton. To sum up, our stay was outstanding and I'd highly recommend this property to anyone visiting San Francisco,"

Top Old St. Mary's Cathedral Hotel Reviews

Grant Plaza Hotel

8/10 Good

"Location was perfect. My only gripe, thin walls. Something with these old buildings in historic neighborhood that they probably can't do anything about. I could hear every person walking out the elevator and their conversations."

Hyatt Regency San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"."

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

8/10 Good

"Enlever les tapis dans les chambres et meilleure qualité pour la thermopompe"

Club Quarters Hotel Embarcadero, San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff..loved breakfast"

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the staff were friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. The location was convenient, making it easy to get around and enjoy the area. The service was excellent, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing and pleasant. Everything was well organised, and I felt comfortable throughout my stay. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable stay with great service. I would happily stay here again!"

InterContinental Mark Hopkins by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Nice beds!"

Hilton San Francisco Financial District

10/10 Excellent

"Room was very spacious. Close to china town so lots of good places to eat. Definitely will come back here next time."

Fairmont San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely love this place! Gorgeous lobby, helpful staff, great views. The daily activities were fun and our bartender in the bar was a delight! The only disappointment was the coffeeshop. It needs to be updated and the quality of the coffee and pastries really needs to match the food city that it's located in. Other than that a great stay and will happily return!"

Grand Hyatt San Francisco

8/10 Good

"Destination fee.....40$ PER DAY.. This nasty surprise comes added to your hotel bill. So, if you stay 3 days it adds 120$ to your hotel bill.. I mistakenly thought it was 40 total not 40$ a day. The breakfast buffet is excellent (staff and food) but at 39$ a person it adds up quickly. The rooms are very clean but slowly starting to get worn....nicks on furniture and such. A/C was adequate, but you could tell if the city was having a hot streak it would not hold up.. ....Hotel has amazing staff in a good location but it's good to be aware of some of the quirks."
