Editorial review:
This historic spot has a great location on top of Nob Hill and a staff that bends over backwards for guests. There are views of the bay, a European décor, and a beautiful lobby. Some critics felt the room quality varied greatly and recommended the newer wing. Cocktails in the famous Tonga Room are recommended.
