Beacon Grand, San Francisco

It is a beautiful, clean hotel in a great location.

Parking is pricey and the room was warm.

Very good bed, bed linen, pillows and airconditioning

Good location if you like the city centre, next to Union square. The rooms are well equipped, clean. Bed very comfortable. Liked the Skyelite bar which is a real plus and the wine list throughout the hotel which was local.

Lack of provision of breakfast in the price (€300 dollars plus a night!). Corridors dark, dingy. Food in the restaurant was inconsistent and definitely overpriced.

A grand old hotel very nicely decorated. I think they may be in the process of renovation. The bathroom in the first room we stayed in a week ago was a bit old and tatty. The room we had on our second stay was nicer with a renovated bathroom.

The hallways to the rooms are a bit dreary.

Clean, grand, historic property

Minimal staff, rooms are pretty small

Lovely room, great restaurant, friendly staff, lovely health club.

This is a lovely hotel - a fabulous place to stay

Decor, Room , very clean helpfull staff

The staff is literally across the street from Union Square. Plenty of restaurants, lounges, and shopping. Stunning property, amazing staff, and a great location.

It’s SF, so not really alot of parking. But they did offer valet.

Location is good for the central SF area.

Staff are fabulous so helpful and friendly. Location is superb! Right in the middle of the shopping district and directly across from a shop/pharmacy which is very convenient! Short walk (very short) to nearest hop on hop off bus tour stop & the tram! Really enjoyed our stay.

The hotel was in a fantastic location. We loved the grand feel of the entrance and the Post Room bar. We enjoyed cocktails in the Starlite bar, overlooking Union Square.

Location downtown

Dark hallway, bathroom sliding door (prefer doors that shut tight)

Superb location for a few nights stay in San Francisco

Parking costs

Nice Room, comfy bed.

Parking cost.

The room was beautifully furnished. The staff were kind and helpful. The location is great with a trolley running in front of the hotel and union square a minute away.

The exterior of the hotel was under reconstruction.

It was beautiful and the staff was so friendly. The room was clean and comfortable

It was under construction in the front

Opulent hotel, built in 1928, and well looked after and recently refurbished. Very well located and easy to find - I drove myself to the front door. Staff were excellent and ALEX, on several occasions, went “above and beyond”. (If I ever buy a business in San Francisco ALEX, I’m going to come and hire you - whatever kind of business it is because you are a real “gem”!)

The charge for “valet” parking was, I thought, excessive at $72 per day when I could “self-park” in one of several nearby car parks for $48 per day. I should have researched this better, in advance. That said I left my cell ‘phone in the car and ALEX delivered it back to me in just a few minutes.

Nice location

Very expensive parking and small room

The staff and accommodations were exceptional. They ensured everyone in our group was taken care of.

Very comfortable beds. Great location for exploring the city. Great view from the Starlight bar.

Shame the Starlight bar was closed one of the nights.

This was a good walkable location and great staff, the hotel was beautiful. The area was safe and the valet did a great job. Honestly, I only have two complaints and one of them is just a human error. The first is that we stayed on the 10th floor and I’m not sure if it was our rooms proximity to the elevator, but you can hear the elevator going up and down, and it got pretty loud where it would wake us up, but it would pass, and it would be fine and the second thing was probably just an oversight on the cleaners part and I wouldn’t of noticed if I hadn’t dropped my earring there was a yellow baggie in between the nightstand and the bed on the floor which was from the previous guest. Honestly, for the prize, this was a really great stay.

As stated in my above comment what I didn’t like was the oversight on the cleanliness but it’s an honest mistake. It was just one small tiny bag of what could’ve been drugs. And the elevator rattling noise.

Decor, location, rooftop bar

Price of breakfast

We returned to the Beacon Hotel after a wonderful stay last summer, and it was just as delightful as we remembered. Our room was spacious and comfortable, with a city view that never gets old. The staff were outstanding; friendly, welcoming, and always helpful. Special thanks to Tony and Alma for handling our reservation with warmth and professionalism, making us feel perfectly at home on the final stop of our vacation.

Grand entrance, inviting decor, helpful staff. Spacious rooms, good food and dtink at The Post dining room.

I booked this hotel as a surprise for our anniversary before our trip to Napa Valley— we only stayed one night but fell in love with the property. Beautiful hotel. Absolutely loved everything about it. The lady at the lobby (I believe her name was Alma) was beyond kind to guard our luggage, and even gave us two vouchers for complimentary drinks at the bar. During our small talk, I mentioned it was our anniversary, and when we returned later to check in, we were surprised with an upgrade to a beautiful room — It was on the top floor and had amazing views. We were beyond happy. Thank you so much to The Beacon Hotel and its amazing staff for making our trip so special! We will be coming back.

I loved everything.

Such a beautiful hotel. Perfect location for shopping at Union square and restaurant near by.

Nothing at all. Loved everything!

Great location, easy to get on the Trolly and near a ton of great places to eat. The Starlight on the top floor was very fun. The rooms, although small, were very clean and well appointed and the espresso maker was wonderful.

The air circulation in the room could have been a bit better, but not really an issue at all.

The employees were very nice and the room was very clean thank you to Antonio at the front desk and Tony at the bar for making my ladies and my engagement photo shoot amazing as well as our stay. Thank you again!

I have no complaints.

Bed, room, and facilities were all perfect - super comfy, clean, and enjoyable. The front desk staff and valet were all very nice and helpful. The location was convenient for us as we were only in town for 24hrs, and it was central enough for us to walk around or grab a quick uber to further afield.

Great location, lots of character, grand public spaces, large bedroom, filtered water fountains in every corridor

Breakfast was terrible (meagre portions, bland food) and extremely overpriced - possibly the worst cooked breakfast I’ve ever had - and definitely the most expensive. 14% service tax in restaurant / bar, which we did not encounter anywhere else in the city

Beautifully designed historic space well-maintained very well located.

Attempted to have lunch in the restaurant was ignored for several minutes before being coldly greeted and essentially dismissed. We left. Do better

Style, cleanliness & location.

No complaints.

Beautiful. Comfortable. Great location. Nice bar. Nice breakfast. Loved the blackout shades. Very nice valet staff.

Room really needed a luggage stand. We didn’t understand that gratuity was included at the bar.

Great location. Big, comfortable and clean room.

Shower needed a bit of maintenance. The shower head wouldn't stay put.

A really nice looking hotel with a grand lobby and bar. Good size bedroom.

I felt the service lacked warmth and the bar and restaurant were too open with the lobby: The bathroom was small and there was not enough towels although we were able to get more on request. No ironing facility in the room.

We asked for a quiet room (as quiet as possible in the middle of a city), away from both the street and the rooftop bar and were given a corner room on the 12th floor, which suited us perfectly. The staff were all very helpful and polite.

The restaurant was a bit slow when serving food, and the cocktail bar was very busy so make sure to book ahead

Great Union square location. Comfortable rooms, a little small for 3 of us but we only slept there so no problems. A couple of great diners nearby.

Not applicable

Fantastic hotel. Great location, staff was great.

The only thing, was our tv, room 510, wouldn’t pivot from the wall, making it really hard to watch from the bed. Called front desk, who called maintenance, they said some tvs are stationary , and some move. Minor inconvenience.

Beautiful hotel, great location, super friendly staff, spacious rooms with extra attention to the small details. The bar is lovely, has wonderful selection of drinks and amazing service

Everything, stunning rooms, great location. Alma was amazing at reception and really kind and helpful. Great location. Kind staff. Great bar with amazing menu

Nothing. It is a great hotel

We were given a room on a high floor which had a great view. The room was comfortable and nicely decorated. The hotel looks very nice and is ideally situated. We walked almost everywhere from there.

Nothing. (Or maybe just one small thing ;”: thé music in the 21st floor bar was really too loud so we left the bar)

The best hotel I’ve ever stayed at with the cleanest rooms! Fantastic location, close to everything, and the friendliest of staff. Tony and John were very help and kind - just a grand hotel with beautiful decor!

Breakfast was poor, yet very expensive. Accommodation was excellent.

Loved the vintage vibe Of the hotel ! Hotel decor and Manly loved the location

Did not like the bath rub and the small size of the bathroom

This building is absolutely beautiful. I love that they still have the old elements. It has all you need with all modern amenities but without modernise it to much.

The architecture and out room was really comfortable. The bed was like a sleeping on a cloud.

Room was beautiful, loved the toiletries, and the bar staff and starlight room staff made me feel at home.

The front staff at reception!

The bar/food during lunch took about half an hour to get our drinks. My guess is that they wanted it to come out the same time as the food but it’s kind of a long wait when there’s no one else there and you only have to make 5 drinks.

Great location close to transit, shopping and restaurants. Staff were very nice and helpful.
