Hotel Drisco

We have stayed in hotels throughout the United States and other parts of the world. Hotel Drisco was easily a top 5 experience. All room amenities outstanding and evening wine and cheese along with the continental breakfast far exceeded expectations. From hot almost dinner offerings to wonderful made to order omelettes to supplement the breakfast. A FIVE STAR EXPERIENCE. Tom and Joan Brown Palo Alto, CA

Possibly the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in! There are so many perfect little touches from the service at the desk, the best breakfast, the beds, the ambiance. I also took advantage of the driver who dropped me off at work every morning in a Chevy Tahoe. The wine and cheese reception was also a nice surprise. After an 11 hour workday, I also took advantage of the 24 hour room service, which was no joke either. The neighborhood is so nice and well kept. This was my second stay and when in San Francisco again, I will give up earning Hilton points to stay here again

This hotel is one of the best values and the best experiences out there. Exceptional comfort, service, beauty and friendliness.

One of our favorite places to stay in The City. Excellent customer service and overall excellent experience. Breakfast is wonderful. Great location and easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Rooms are very comfortable and very clean. Just a great place to stay.

Our son recommended the Hotel Drisco as many of his business associates had stayed there. This is a lovely, quiet hotel in the beautiful neighborhood of Pacific Heights. The location is an easy walk to the Lyon Steps, Presidio Park and the Palace of Fine Arts. The staff were very kind and helpful and the breakfast was delicious. The room was luxurious and had all the amenities you could think of, including a heated floor!! Enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay there on our next trip.

This was a most delightful surprise and truly a gem in San Francisco and very appropriate for this beautiful neighborhood of Pacific Heights. The hotel is absolutely "top drawer." My room was elegantly furnished. The bathroom is stunning. The bed, the pillows and linens gave me the best night's sleep. Make sure you attend the Wine Tasting and hors d'ouvres. Outstanding. The breakfast is a spread you do not want to miss. Reminds me of being in Europe. Then on top of all of that, the employees are real and genuine. Service and kindness abounds. No more hotels in the Embarcadero or shopping districts. This is the one. Oh, and take yourself for a walk in the neighborhood. Views are breath-taking.

The hotel Drisco is truly one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. The staff is very helpful and friendly, breakfast is superb as well as healthy and evening drinks and nibbles delicious. Plenty of tea and coffee with delicious homemade baked goods available all day long. The rooms are very comfortable with a choice of pillows and the location in Pacific Heights very quiet and very convenient.

We absolutely loved the Hotel Drisco, it’s charming, luxe, and lovely. It’s an old San Francisco building, but it’s been updated, and modernized in entirely good ways, while retaining its charm. Hard to be beat the Pacific Heights location, easy access to Cow Hollow, the Marina, Fillmore, and B Patisserie. The one thing to know is this hotel is perched at the top of the hill, walking to Fillmore or the Marina is a lovely 1 mile walk, downhill. It’s so steep to the Marina or Cow Hollow that some may struggle a bit going down, for many, walking back up is not likely, so you’ll be driving or getting a ride (or using their electric bikes potentially). Speaking of those electric bikes, this is just one of many amenities that I would have expected to pay more for. Not at Hotel Drisco. I can honestly say, it’s the only hotel I can recall where they’re not looking to make incremental revenue from each guest, they’re too generous really! From an excellent setup for keeping water in your room (and they’re encouraging you to take their reusable water bottles home no less), to a departing gift, to incredibly reasonable room service pricing ($3 for a beer, never seen that). Also their early evening wine/apps thing was lovely, breakfast is a made to order omelette and more. All of this is a long way of saying, it’s not inexpensive, but I’d say it offers great value. It’s the kind of place you can’t wait to return to, and you don’t want to leave.

Superb and helpful service, particularly from the front desk— it is clear that the staff genuinely wants the guests to enjoy San Francisco, and to be comfortable at the Drisco. The afternoon wine tasting adds a pleasant opportunity to relax, and the glasses offered are interesting and of high quality.
