Why stay at a hotel when you can stay at a legend? Combining historic, Renaissance-influenced architectural splendor that includes an opulent lobby, sky-high ceilings and a sweeping staircase begging for grand entrances, Kimpton Sir Francis Drake is where vintage glamour and the ideal Union Square location intersect.

This hotel was formally the Sir Francis Drake Hotel now known as the remodeled Beacon Grand Hotel. The location, the accommodations, the staff are all excellent. We caught the Big Bus Hop-on-Hop Off bus within a 5 min. walk. High end shopping is within a 5 min walk and there are many restaurants everywhere. We felt very safe staying here. I highly recommend the Beacon Grand Hotel!
