Michelin Guide
"Mirror, mirror on the wall. Who's the grandest of them all? Why, the Palace, of course. This grande dame proudly shows off her old-world refinement."
Frommer's

"The most famous of Nob Hill’s landmark hotels... fantastic views from the rooms."
Michelin Guide
"This queen of the city retains a traditional charm."
Concierge
"Rooms... in the original building have high ceilings and a rich sense of place, but not all have views; rooms in the vintage-1961 tower have jaw-dropping vistas yet feel more generic."
Fodor's
"Amenities and special services (including... a newly crafted Intersect Media Lounge complete with multiplayer Guitar Hero and Wii Golf) keep loyal guests coming back."
