"Outstanding Hotel"
Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Nov 23, 2009
Beautiful hotel in a lovely neighborhood. My wife and I live in the Bay Area, but wanted to spend the night in San Francisco to celebrate her birthday in style, and avoid the drive home after a festive dinner. The Drisco was a great choice -- so much more appropriate for the occasion than a big, anonymous chain hotel in the Financial District.

"Fabulous boutique hotel"
Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Oct 15, 2009
I've stayed in hotels all over San Francisco and this is my favorite boutique hotel so far. It is ideal to explore the Presidio, the Pacific Heights neighborhood and Union Street. The staff is very nice and professional, they hold a wine social and breakfast has several fresh and delicious choices.

"Affordable hotel in upmarket district"
Reviewed by N of London on Jul 9, 2009
From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcome by an excellent doorman. Having stayed in a large city centre hotel previously the Drisco was a haven of peace and calm. Our room was very quiet and well furnished but its high quality staff is what made our stay so enjoyable.

"Great Experience... except very noisy children!!!"
Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Mar 29, 2009
We had a wonderful stay. The staff was great, very friendly. The only problem was children running up and down the hall early in the morning. There parents didn't care how loud they were!!. The father was even oblivious... He was loud and marching down our hallway.

"Incredibly comfortable, great service"
Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Dec 13, 2008
We enjoyed the hotel very much. Only drawback, it is a bit of a hike to public transportation, and we didn't want to go back and forth during the day from sights around town. But regardless, we would stay there again.

"Outstanding Hotel/Staff/Neighborhood/Room"
Reviewed by robert of sonoma on Jun 5, 2007
I stayed here for just one night, but the staff really was very accomodating; they treat you like family (family they like, that is...) The room was small (206B) but nicely appointed. The neighborhood is gorgeous. Parking is a bit of an issue. Street parking is the only option, and although the neighborhood (Pacific Heights) is among the nicest and safest in the city, there are just some cars you don't want to be parking on the streets. This was the only issue however, and was less of a problem than I suspected, as street parking was readily available.

"hotel confortable mais très excentré"
Reviewed by E of PARIS on Aug 11, 2008
Très bon service et prestations globales. Excellent petit déjeuner. Chambre inégales. 105 à éviter car minuscule et aucun rangement. 102 superbe avec grande salle de bain. Les clients au sommeil leger peuvent être génés par le bruit de la rue pour les chambres du 1er étage. Très bon choix de DVD gratuits. Un lecteur dans chaque chambre. Hotel situé dans un quartier superbe mais très excentré et tout en haut d'une longue côte. Impossible d'y trouver un taxi dans la rue. Il faut le commander.
