Reviews for Kimpton Sir Francis Drake Hotel
A must stay!
The Beacon Grand is a step back in time. The hotel has been beautifully redone. Everything is spotless and brand new. The staff were all super friendly and provided excellent service. We had a few minor issues that were promptly dealt with. Drinks at the Post Room and an evening at the Starlight are a must. Well situated at union square it was walking distance to everything we needed. Will stay here again on my next visit to San Francisco.

Beautiful hotel, everything new in a central location to reach all touristic spots.
Beacon Grand is in a great location, just next to Union Square. The hotel has a nice atmosphere, it looks all new refurnished with rooms nicely decorated and very comfortable beds, as well as a beautiful bathroom. We definitely would come back to this hotel on our next trip to San Francisco.

Boring business trip saved by elite hospitality in gorgeous hotel
Had a wonderful stay while traveling for work. Beautiful location and wonderful staff. Do yourself a favor and make a late night reservation for Starlight and enjoy some snacks and cocktails.
