We stayed here for 4 nights last week in a standard room and were provided a high floor (7th) corner room with a view and had no street-noise issues at all. Check-in was smooth and quick, even at 1 PM, 2 hours before normal check-in. A small box of chocolates and card was in the room for a belated birthday.... more

I very recently stayed 3 nights at the Ritz while attending a conference at the hotel; and the overall experience was very good. I felt it was a good value at the rates we were given for attending the conference. My only real complaint is with the street noise that I could hear at all hours of the day. I... more

Fantastic Hotel, in a good location for San Fran sightseeing more

You can't ever go wrong with the Ritz-Carlton. Dinner at the The Dining Room was great and had a nice quiet atmosphere, lunch at The Lobby Lounge was nice too, the food. It was hard to eat outside of the hotel because the food was so good. As usual staff was always helpful. more

Stayed for the Columbus Day long weekend and was disappointed with the service. Mind you, it's still good compared to the other large chain hotels, but it's definitely not what I've come to expect of a typical Ritz Carlton.

After we left... more

The Ritz! San Francisco's finest. Life can't get any better. A stately exterior--a beautiful and elegant interior--an ambiance that shouts "exclusive luxury." That's The Ritz. Guests are warmly greeted upon arrival by a well-trained, attentive staff and offered a glass of champagne, my favorite beverage--how thoughtful. Everything was perfect from beginning to end. Ambiance and service met every expectation. We... more

I will avoid repeating much of the information already offered in the many reviews already published. This is my additional 2¢-worth. Stayed for one week in a 1-bed suite in the R-C SF in September 2009. Located at the top of one of SF's more challenging hills, the RC SF is away from much of the city centre's noise. If,... more
