"South of Market highrise outpost of the pricey hotel chain that thinks it’s a nightclub."

"The 'W' doesn't really stand for wonderful, witty, or wow, but all perfectly sum up the style of this corporateloving hotel."

"As modern and hip as its fashionable clientele, this 31-story property suits its neighbors, which include the Museum of Modern Art, the Moscone Center, and the Metreon entertainment center." Full review

"The San Francisco outpost of the W hotel chain is popular with conventioneers for its proximity to the nearby Moscone Center... But the hotel is comfortable as well as trendy."

"The epitome of cool urban chic... this swanky 31-story Starwood hotel owes some of its cachet to a prime location next door to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art." Full review

Fragrances waft throughout the hotel and guest rooms, so sensitive noses should call ahead to request special preparations.

"Like an old-fashioned pensione, the Golden Gate has kindly owners and simple rooms with mismatched furniture." Full review
Gayot Gayot
"This 1913 Edwardian hotel near Union Square is full of century-old nostalgia, such as claw-foot tubs, a bird cage elevator and antique furniture."
BlackBook BlackBook
"Hosts John and Renate run the friendliest hotel in town (more of a B&B really): a 4-story 1913 Edwardian charmer that’s bedecked with antiques, wicker and old photographs."
