"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."

"If you're looking for a romantic hideaway, the Phoenix is not for you. If you want to party like a rock star, you've found the place."
Fodor's
"A magnet for the hip at heart and ultracool... the Phoenix isn't the best choice for those seeking peace and quiet."
