Great service from Jeff at the concierge desk! He was informative and helpful. Nice location of the hotel, but rooms were dated in the “newer” building and the shower was not pleasant.

Great stay as usual! Had a lovely room overlooking Union Square in the Landmark tower. Rooms in the landmark building are updated and well appointed while also having a classic historic charm. Fitness facilities are excellent, a large gym that’s much better equipped than typical hotels. Destination fee is a pain but typical of hotels in the area, daily dining credit and free water bottles are nice touches to offset it a bit (missed the cable car tickets that used to be provided but seem to have been cut in favor of an Uber credit). Club Lounge for Bonvoy elite members is beautiful and has a good breakfast and solid evening appetizer spread as well. Westin Heavenly Bed was great, as always. New restaurant was in preview/ testing phase so I was unable to try it but it looks very nice and I hope to check in out during my next stay. Overall a great hotel in a central spot for SF.

My husband and I look a quick weekend trip up from LA to celebrate my sister’s birthday, and as always, we stayed at the Westin St. Francis. It’s a historic hotel (which I love being I’m a history nerd!) and it’s our go-to spot whenever we’re in San Francisco. We’re Titanium Bonvoy members, and the rooms manager took awesome care of us — upgraded to a Grand View Room overlooking Union Square, which was fantastic. The Club Lounge is great too, especially for breakfast. I also really like that the destination fee includes things you’ll actually use — Uber credits, cable car tickets, bottled water, bike rentals, etc. It’s a nice touch. An excellent stay all around. We’ll be back in October for another great visit.

Stay here regularly for business. A very good business hotel in SFO, with a private driveway for check in, quick check in service, lots of bottled water for elites, which I am grateful for, and a beautiful and well stock new club lounge. As an elite, I am consistently given an appropriate room upgrade which I am very satisfied with. Overall I would say best in SFO.

What is there to say about my favorite San Francisco hotel and truly one of the best Westins in North America? From the genuine welcome of the front desk team to the well-maintained rooms with amazing views, you can’t go wrong! This hotel just gets what it means to provide a great guest experience! I am looking forward to my stay next month. Hopefully I can get my favorite room again.
