DK Eyewitness "The public areas are glamorous, and the bedrooms refined and elegant. Business travelers will find the staff extremely helpful."
Time Out "Rebranded in 2006, the former Pan Pacific hotel is far enough from Union Square that guests can avoid the crush, but close enough that the shops are mere steps away." Full review
Star Service "At the corner of Mason Street, one block west of Union Square, and six blocks shy of the Bank America Center and the Financial District, this...is in an excellent location for business and pleasure." Full review
Gayot "Despite its size (21 stories and 329 rooms in all), the JW Marriott San Francisco has a decidedly intimate atmosphere amid the bustle of Union Square."

Rough Guide "The place to stay if you win the lottery (or someone else is paying), this ultra-luxe hotel on Market St affords spectacular views across the city. Its plush rooms are the ultimate indulgence."
Michelin Guide "Nobody does modern luxury quite like this straight-away winner."
Concierge "The superluxurious Four Seasons San Francisco is a sanctuary so serene it's hard to believe it's in the heart of downtown."

Though the understated greige decor successfully straddles the line between contemporary and traditional, with clean lines and zero clutter, it lacks color and splash: If you like fringe and chintz, choose the Ritz-Carlton instead.
Fodor's "This exclusive, award-winning hotel is sandwiched between multimillion-dollar condos, elite shops, and a premier sports-and-fitness complex." Full review
Lonely Planet "The Four Seasons is huge, confident and very corporate, and one of San Francisco's best posh hotels." Full review

"The Four Seasons' huge, well-outfitted rooms and attentive service are among the city's best, but the 277-room property falls a bit short of expectations." Full review
Travel + Leisure "A head-to-toe renovation in 2009 perked up this plush high-rise; rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows, black granite credenzas, and Eames chairs. ." Full review
Star Service "Situated between Third and Fourth streets, adjacent to the Jewish Museum, in a dynamic neighborhood racing with activity, adjacent to the Financial District, Union Square shopping." Full review
Gayot "This luxury hotel facing Market Street in the Financial District towers over the city. Superior facilities immerse guests in contemporary elegance and refined details."
BlackBook "Tastefully modern halls of muted beige and blue tones, exotic African woods. Hushed, intimate feel of fifth-floor lobby offers womblike retreat from the clatter of Market Street."
