I have been to SFO loads of times - but always on business - this trip was as a tourist; I decided to finally stop and see what SF had to offer. Found the Drisco on tripadvisor. If you want glass & steel, center of the action and an expansive lobby with hustle & bussle plus fountains & a noisy... more

Had a wonderful time in this quaint and civilised hotel. The service is outstanding, everywhere is immaculate and my room was really comfortable and a nice place to be in. Of course you should avoid this if you want an anonymous, large and bustling hotel. Here you have a boutique hotel with an old world charm where the staff recognise... more

Although we've travelled to SF several times this was our first stay at the Drisco. It's an older property, filled with character, and located in a residential neighborhood – Pacific Heights ($10 cab ride to Union Square). Their web site describes the property well, but it is the service that needs to be described. Right from the reservation phone call,... more

The staff could not have been friendlier or more knowledgable, the breakfasts were delicious and the small touches like turndown, towncar service and wine/cheese made our vacation so relaxing. The hotel is in an a beautiful area with lots... more

We felt instantly relaxed and comfortable in our room. The room was really great, especially the comfortable bed, large bathroom, and other nice touches as... more

We stayed here as we typically like to stay in places that are closer to the local flavour and the Drisco met that requirement for us. The service was very good and the... more

I have just stayed in this hotel for 4 nights with my two daughters. The service was first class - wonderful breakfast - wine, cheese and hot appetisers each evening, limo service every morning into Union Square - all these complementary! The hotel has class, elegance and extremely comfortable accommodation. The staff give 110% service and lots of tips on... more

We stayed at Hotel Drisco for one night on my husband's 55th birthday. I'd made the reservations far in advance and worked with Marti, the property's wonderful concierge, to make everything perfect - and it was! She arranged for a town car to pick us up at SFO, early check-in, a delicious birthday cake and champagne (complete with flutes, china,... more
