Nice hotel but not the Ritz!
Posted Jul 23, 2014Pros: Comfortable beds, clean and homey feeling after a long day exploring.
Cons: Not sure. Just not what I expected from the Ritz. Maybe my expectations for a five-star hotel is off.
Location: Midway between Wharf and Union Sq. and adjacent to Chinatown. Very steep hills. Cable car lines within a block very helpful but crowded.
Room was not ready when we arrived at 4pm. Kind of felt like a second class customer by some of the front desk staff. The concierge staff were pleasant and very helpful. Great trip and in the end liked the location of the hotel. Might try the Fairmont (one block away) next time.

Extremely nice and convenient hotel
Posted Jul 20, 2014Pros: Everything.
Cons: Nothing.
I always stay at the Ritz-Carlton when I need a hotel in San Francisco, and I have never been disappointed.

City Break in San Francisco
Posted Jul 15, 2014Pros: We did have a fantastic evening meal in the main restaurant - the service was great and the food absolutely superb
Cons: A bit more attention to service (apart from the restaurant)
We had a pleasant stay at the Ritz Carlton but it definitely didn't meet the standards you would normally hope for. Check-in was very slow though they weren't busy. The bathrooms for the main restaurant were pretty dirty and graffiti was scrawled on the door. Breakfast was pretty chaotic and we didn't get things we had ordered whilst other cooked stuff arrived cold.

Maybe i was expecting to much?
Posted Jul 9, 2014Pros: The front desk person Alex, she was great!
Cons: New bed
Location: Very good location.
The building wasn't in great shape. The steam room didn't work. There wasn't a pool anymore. My bed was saggy and my back.

Good place, helpfull staff
Posted Jul 7, 2014Pros: Good place, smiling and helpfull staff, cleaness
Cons: A shuttle between union square and/or Fisherman's Warf may be cool
Location: Good place but still you have to walk up a hill. Too near to anywhere for taxis. A Shuttle may be a good idea.
We stayed in the hotel for family vacation. We felt as in home.

50th anniversary
Posted Jun 24, 2014Pros: We met there 50 years ago at Metropolitan life ins. Co. So it was the perfect place to stay at for our 50th anniversary.
Excellent stay, the 37th paralal restraunt was excellent, we only had breakfast ther twice but our waitress )Teressa) was wonderful, very friendly. She seemed like she knew us and cared about our stay.
