The hotel lobby & property were stunning; elegant & quiet with a unique Gatsby charm. Housekeeping was splendid & did an exceptional job at refreshing our room while we were out for the day much to our delight. Unfortunately, the room itself was a bit disappointing. The bathroom was terribly inconvenient & quite tiny. We did not opt for a luxury suite however I would have hoped for more spacious quarters; at minimum enough space to be able to comfortably navigate the room in its entirety. Overall an averagely pleasant experience for those planning to use the hotel primarily as sleeping quarters otherwise I suggest upgrading.

An absolutely gorgeous historic hotel! The central location was perfect for our visit. Cable car pickup just steps from the lobby. The staff was so kind, professional and helpful at every interaction. Elevators were very accessible. The rooms were spacious, elegant and spotless. Lots of excellent food selections within just a few blocks. We plan to return annually. Simply superb accommodations!
