Reviews for Hotel Drisco
Family stay in SF after NBA All Star 2025.
Definitively the best hotel experience I've ever had. Located in the wonderful neighborhood of Pacific Heights, we did enjoy all the beauties offered: wine dining, breakfast, free transportation, etc. and, of course, beautiful views of the Bay Area. Will come back at the next opportunity.

Even better than expected
The Hotel Drisco was everything we hoped it would be and more. The neighborhood is just beautiful and so safe. Staff is friendly, especially the manager, John, who greeted us every morning at breakfast and every evening at the wine reception. Speaking of which, both were incredible and plentiful. After long days of touring the city it was so wonderful to come back to this home away from home. The rooms are so comfortable. And they really thought of everything. The ambiance is serene and we immediately felt that we were on holiday. This will be our hotel of choice anytime we return to this area. I can't recommend Hotel Drisco more strongly.

My new favorite!
I loved the coffee and tea sitting area. The room we had was spectacular. The staff was very nice very serving. I would recommend taking advantage of appetizer and cocktail hour. Our mistake was we had 6pm dinner reservations and couldn’t sit and enjoy this fabulous treat! My new favorite hotel!

The perfect hotel
A friend who lives in SF recommended this hotel and we were not disappointed. It is in a beautiful location surrounded by some of the most impressive houses in the city. The rooms are perfect with comfortable beds and all the facilities you might need (Bulgari products, Nespresso machine, fluffy towels etc.) They have a complimentary buffet with delicious wine every evening which is a perfect way to start the evening. Breakfast is also vast. Thoroughly recommend.

Not only was the Hotel Drisco luxurious, the service was impeccable, the suite was absolute luxury (we didn't want to leave the room!), the breakfasts were fantastic, and the afternoon wine gatherings were superb. Luxury does not begin to describe the experience. The only drawback is that I now will never want to stay anywhere else in San Francisco.

We recently stayed at the Hotel Drisco and it was one of the most enjoyable stays I've ever had at a hotel. This extremely quaint hotel is located on a beautiful street and the hotel staff was particularly nice. The next time I'm in San Francisco, I'll be staying at the Drisco a hotel that captures the grace and charm of Europe.
