Everyone should stay there just once and you’ll probably want to return every time you’re in SF
Pros:

Amazing delicious breakfast, wonderful staff, fabulous location. The body wash and lotion so special that I bought some. Very clean and luxurious.
Looking forward to staying there again.

Cons:

The bed was a little softer than I like. But everything else was so wonderful that it just didn’t matter.

Disappointing
Pros:

Just the view from the top.
The food at Top of the mark was good.

Cons:

Everything, hotel is old and needs renovation. The first room we checked in was horrible, windy, noisy, very tiny bathroom. No amenities, no refrigerator or coffee machine. We had to ask for extra towels.

Old-School Classic, Clean but needs to remodled and/or upgraded
Pros:

Location is amazing, Staff were great. It is clean and relatively comfortable.

Cons:

It is dated and needs to be upgraded. The fixtures in the room are old and wonky, the hot water takes a long time, the toilet makes a crazy noise when you flush. The elevators squeal horrendously. There was a fridge in the room and it was locked. When we asked for a key, they said that it was locked because it was non-functional, but then didn't offer to give one that worked. Also - there was no mini-bar, no bottled water, no vending machine for drinks/food, and the TV did not have a way to stream or cast.

Needs modernisation
Pros:

The hotel is a very grand , old hotel with an impressive lobby. However, the rooms are tired and rather shabby . The mini bar is locked and unavailable & there are no tea/coffee facilities in the rooms. There is a water machine in reception, available 24 hours and complimentary coffee in the morning. Staff are friendly and the breakfast good.

Magical
Pros:

The location was the wonderful Nob Hill area. 15 minute walk to Chinatown and North Beach. The room was immaculate and the view was great. Also the top of the Mark has the best view from the 15th floor.

Cons:

A little pricey, but that's life.
