Perfectly located for union square and shopping. Staff are really friendly and helpful. The only thing preventing it getting a 5 is the restaurant....

Neat grand old property. Tough to valet park and pricey for overnight parking but pretty good otherwise. Nothing real special but interesting.

A beautiful historic hotel. We loved the decor. It's like stepping back in time. If you get a chance visit the starlight room on the top floor.

Only there for drinks in the lobby bar. The bartender wasn't very friendly. I expected a better experience at Sir Francis Drake. Much better.
