Breakfast was good. Afternoon tea being provided was an unexpected bonus. Room was serviced well. Location was only a couple of blocks from Union Square - very central.

The top of the fridge had not been dusted but was remedied quickly when brought to staff's attention. Tea towels had not been provided, but again this was remedied quickly. The sink plug did not hold water and needed replacement due to age, wear and tear.

Beautiful high ceilings and a lovely foyer. Great options for dining nearby. The hotel offers breakfast and wine and cheese at night. The breakfast was yogurt, apples, croissants, and oatmeal packets, with the option of juice, coffee, teas or hot chocolate. It was plenty to get you started for the day, and excellent to return at night for a tiny nosh before going to a meal nearby.

The elevator is very slow! Because of the high ceilings, it's a lot of stairs if you are on an upper floor. But, the elevator is also smooth!

It's a beautiful OLD hotel. Staff were great.

The noise from the street was very LOUD. The toilet ran after flushing. We told staff twice, but nothing got done. The curtain in one of the windows was literally falling apart.

Interesting architecture and nice to have continental breakfast.

Advertised as having laundry, but it was actually a laundromat that was two blocks up a notoriously steep SF street which was not ideal for lugging laundry. The room was very crowded, with not much space to manoeuvre; the TV did not work as the aerial would not pick up signal and the bathroom fittings were in need of repair. The room smelt musty and the neighbourhood area was extremely noisy with constant emergency vehicles at all hours.

I requested rooms close to each other. They did a good job; our rooms were next door to each other. The location is excellent, close to shopping, good restaurants, the theater, etc. The beds are excellent!

I've stayed here MANY times. This time, sadly, the staff appeared to be indifferent to our presence. Two women behind the front desk were chatting, not really paying attention to us. In the rooms, there is no information sheet about where to get ice, location of vending machines, emergency routes, how to turn on the old radiators (or how to regulate the heat). No information about restaurants and activities in the area. The valet brought our car, but I had to ask for the keys. No one asked if we needed help putting our luggage in the car. There is no way to call the front desk from your room unless you know the number. This is an outdated hotel; I used to enjoy the charm of it.

Loved the old world charm of this hotel, perfect location for getting to what we wanted to see, and the wine and cheese every afternoon. It was decorated nicely for the holidays and made our family vacation feel very festive.

It would be nice to have some control of the heat. We were pretty hot and needed to open the windows to cool the rooms down. The kitchen is outdated, but at least we had a sink to wash our glasses and a refrigerator to keep what we needed cold. We would happily stay again!

There was nothing I didnโ€™t like. It is an old building and does look a bit tired but if it were refurbished it would spoil the character of the place. Personally I prefer this to a modern chain hotel.

Incredible Experience โ€“ The Staff Truly Make It Special! From the moment you walk in, you can feel the positive energy in this place. The staff here are absolutely amazing โ€“ friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what they do. Itโ€™s rare to find a team that not only provides exceptional service but also seems to truly love their work, and it shows in every interaction. Whether itโ€™s their warm welcome, their attention to detail, or the way they go above and beyond to make sure youโ€™re taken care of, itโ€™s clear that this isnโ€™t just a job for them. If youโ€™re looking for a place where youโ€™ll feel valued, appreciated, and treated with genuine care, look no further.

The staff is welcoming, gracious, and responsive. It is not a chain hotel either . Wine and cheese in the afternoon Self serve breakfast in the lobby. A bargain fof SF SF

Whatever minor problems there are, it does not lessen the appeal of the place.

Really charming interior, decently priced in a pretty expensive city. Bed was great, bathroom was large and quite nice. Interior was more interesting than most. Location is alright, but can turn intense if you're not careful.

Thin windows in an area fairly close to Tenderloin means lots of sirens throughout the day and a bit at night. Street noise is also quite loud, but mostly calmed down at night. Strong smell of weed in the hall wasn't the best.

Lobby & lift had insufficient lights. Lift almost looks dark. Parking we have to wait 20-30mins, to get car from valet. Two rooms were given at two different corners and made it extremely difficult for us, especially when you are family of 6 members. Lobby roof paint is off, bath tubs have salt calcium deposits.

This is me being picky, but the elevator was a bit dark and I know that San Francisco is typically a cooler place, but my family are such hot sleepers so even though the fans helped in the room, weโ€™ve become accustomed to having AC, which this hotel didnโ€™t have. Like I said though, Iโ€™m just being spoiled and picky

It is located in a relatively okay neighbourhood where at least you donโ€™t get the impression of being at risk of being stabbed after every corner. It has nice amenities and an okay price, especially if compared to the many alternatives. It is one of the few hotels left in center San Francisco which is in the middle between up-class 1000 dollars/day stays and shabby squatting-with-cockroach, paper-walls rooms. I hope it survives until I get to go to my yearly security conferenceโ€ฆ

Honestly, I do not have any complaints. I come here every year and I know what to expect. They have never disappointed me so far - quite the opposite. If I would not need to stay every evening in the San Francisco city center for a prolonged time like I typically need to (e.g., more than 5 days) I would be probably better off staying outside in some motel and commute with BART or a rental car, because prices in the city center are crazy. If you absolutely need to stay in the center for a long time, this is one of the few decent alternatives left.

There is a grocery store right across the street. Continental breakfast served in the morning, wine and cheese in the afternoon.

Wi-fi was very spotty throughout our stay. Bathroom fixtures very old but working. Radiator leaked to the carpet. Only 1 burner worked when using the stove, another burner kind of worked. Old hotel, needs to be updated/renovated one of these days.

We love the Beresford! The charming historic vibe is what we love. The staff is great, the rooms are spacious, and it feels like a journey back in time.

The location is in the Tenderloin of the city. We know this and we stay here despite the loud noises at night, the unhoused population surrounding the property. That said, we have never felt unsafe in San Francisco. Everyone is always kind and helpful and doing the best they can. We love the city and the Beresford is the best place to stay hands down!

It was nice and I love the vintage style. The suite we got was perfect and very spacious and very clean. I love that they are pet friendly with a small fee. The neighborhood isnโ€™t that great but we still felt safe in the hotel as there was someone at the front desk and the front door locks at night. Will definitely stay here again!

A minute after I checked out we realized we forgot something in the room and the front desk gave us a hard time about getting back into the room since housekeeping was supposedly already on the room. Just wish they couldโ€™ve made it a better experience to be able to go back and grab what we left behind.

Great Value Hotel. We stayed for 1 night as we were going to a show that night and it was near my. Easy parking, as you leave your car for them to valet park. We were able to bring our small dogs. 2 adults and 2 kids in one large room, and it was a good value. If this is what your looking for it works.

Easy access to the hotel and room. Not long walks.

This is one of my favorite places to stay due to the history of the hotel. The staff and accommodations are good. Everyone is friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean, and the kitchen area is adequately supplied with amenities. The evening snacks and morning continental breakfast are wonderful ?. Again, it is my favorite place to stay.

The heater was not great in the room we had. It sounded like popcorn all night long. There was no way to adjust it as it is a radiator heater. The shower was very temperamental. It was HOT or COLD-- not really easy to adjust to an acceptable temperature. There were children running in the room above us until 10pm. It's very irritating, but we understand it happens.

It is in a good location and it is quite cozy

It is quite old especially the furniture in the room. The carpet felt rough. The elevator was old which stopped operating for some hours when we were there but the staff were so kind to help us with our luggage and stroller.

My group really enjoyed the historic building, original or period appropriate decor & great location central to go either direction to points of interest.

Didnโ€™t like the fact that we had a family suite that included & advertised three queen size beds (2in the room) other one being a Murphy bed in the living room. Though upon arriving in the room finding out the Murphy bed was screwed shut/non operable & only provided a single size roll out collapsible cot in its place. Also pre warning to any other travelers the beds are extremely soft, some would say too soft, making it uncomfortable for some to get decent sleep. Finally the place is old & doesnโ€™t have updated installation or double pane windows, thus allowing a ton of noise pollution in. Those not used to living in city areas will find it difficult to sleep as well.
