Westin St. Francis

When I first visited SF in the 80's, my two friends and I stayed at the Westin St. Francis Hotel. It is a wonderful experience in luxurious, traditional San Francisco style. Whether you stay here or not, during your visit, walk in and look around the beautiful lobby and if you have the time and inclination, have some food or a drink in the very relaxing Compass Rose bar and restaurant. It's really a treat - expensive - but worth it if you love quality.

St. Francis Hotel

There is not much you can say about this hotel that is not positive. I stayed on the 30th floor and had a beautiful view of the Golden Gate Bridge, which is absolutely gorgeous in the evening. Top that off with a stunning view of downtown while taking the open view elevator on the way down, and you have the makings of a great hotel. Top that off with a Heavenly Bed! Voila, instant comfort.

I watched the history of the St. Francis on the television, which was exciting as well. During WWII, Admiral Nimitz worked here to develop the plan for the Pacific Battle. Douglas McArthur stayed here after the war was over... It was the initial meeting place for the UN, Ronald Reagan and Queen Elizabeth met here, and Gerald Ford was shot at just outside of this hotel.

	Westin St. Francis: The Legendary Service Was Nowhere to be Seen Tip Rating: Satisfaction:

Westin St Francis Hotel

We had heard lots of great things about the legendary service at the Westin St Francis, so we were very disappointed by our stay there.

We found the staff to be rude and difficult. At one point we had to practically beg for a safety deposit box, even though they were free to guests, because the receeptionist did not think our reasons for wanting one was good enough.

Even though the hotel itself was not as good as expected (for a 4 star hotel) the location could not have been better. It is situated right on Union Square with Macy's one side and Tiffany & Co. on the other side and the cable cars stop right outside.

Tour Desk and Hire Car Desk situated in the lobby.

Views over Union Square.

Great views from the super speedy lifts.

Close to Macy's and the Cheesecake Factory. (Yum).

	Westin St. Francis: Quality hotel on Union Square Tip Rating: Satisfaction:

Top notch hotel & service. Great views from upper floors.
You can walk to most of the main sights downtown or take one of the many trams.

Recommend the half day minivan tour of the city with Pacific Line. The guide was knowledgable and friendly.

The Westin St. Francis has been a San Francisco landmark since 1904 and the saty was fantastic as it is located right on Union Square where all the main shops are!

St. Francis Hotel

Bear in mind that I stayed there back in 1954. The location, however, hasn't changed and it is right on Union Square.

The photo is from a post card sent to me by a friend.

St Francis

Luxurious, expensive and fancy. Kings and Queens have stayed here for gods sake. In Union Square.

Historic building, good location, famous.
