Excellent stay

Gracieruns (San Francisco, California) on Apr 12, 2024

Magnificent property. In addition to a beautiful, century old hotel, the staff seem formally trained in the hospitality industry. There is an old school feel to the staff, without exception helpful and professional. Joseph, our restaurant server, brought class and service to another level So lacking in the other chains. The rooms are spotless and comfortable. We cannot wait to return for a longer stay.

Luxurious

Cindy G on Apr 11, 2024

The grounds and the hotel were so beautiful. We love the location of the hotel as well because we could walk to everything we wanted to see. The doorman and the bell hops were super friendly. We enjoyed the spa but would probably never do it again because it was so expensive. Afternoon tea was a lovely experience as well but also something we'll only do once because of the cost. The hotel itself was surprisingly affordable given how fancy it was and what a good location. This may have been because we stayed on a Monday night.
