Located high atop Pacific Heights, Hotel Drisco is an excellent choice for SF lodging. The views, neighborhood and local architecture are spectacular. Our room was very well appointed. We enjoyed an upscale "happy hour" in the late afternoon complete with fine red wine and soft brie cheese and then a delicious breakfast the next morning. The hotel staff was exceedingly... more

My husband and I travelled with friends for the weekend to SF. We had tickets for the Playing for Change concert at the Palace of Fine Arts; it's one reason we chose the Driso; it's within walking distance from the Palace. It was a lovely downhill walk through a very elegant neighborhood. Obviously, the walk back was uphill! The views... more

This quiet, neighborhood hotel offers new ways to experience one of the great cities in the world. For our two-day stay, everything was just right. Most of all, we appreciated the thoughtfulness and the kindness of the folks who work there. From first to last, they made us feel so welcome. One note: The views in all directions are gorgeous,... more

I have stayed at the Hotel Drisco many times. It is like being in the guest room of a very well run home. The breakfast is complete with many offerings and the dining space bright and cheerful. The hotel is situated at the peak of Pacific Heights and the views are beautiful. There are many wonderful neighberhood restaurants nearby. And... more

The Pacific Suite perfectly fit our needs. The in-room amenities were great. We received fresh fruit daily and cookies in the evening. Breakfast buffet was great; good variety and plenty of food. The food choices were alwasy appealing and fresh. The service was excellent, as well. The staff attended to all of our needs. The staff was very personable! more

We stayed at the end of October and although as many reviewers say this location is not central we found this quite refreshing especially once we mastered the bus routes! The weather was warmer than we expected and the room was quite hot but opening the windows did help and no ac meant the room was very quiet. The breakfast... more

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 Rough Guide to San Francisco says "unless you are wedded to the area there are better hotels for the price Downtown" - I totally disagree - the hotel in situated in the very post Pacific Heights it is extremely quiet and there are lots of places to park your hire car adjacent to the hotel and not have to... more
