Beacon Grand

We had a lovely stay. The room that we had was a little tight to maneuver around the end of bed, however it had everything we needed. The bathroom was a compact, but it have a great magnifying mirror! The room looked newly renovated. The lobby and the restaurant/bar was gorgeous. Location was great with the cable car stop right out side. The bar staff were great and made delicious cocktails. We were given a complimentary drink token upon check in.

We stayed in room 1527 next to the elevator so we heard the ding and people throughout the night however, the bed & pillows were comfortable, the staff was kind and accommodating. The starlight roof top was a cool atmosphere but over priced, same as the other restaurant in the hotel, the post. Overall, good hotel but lots of room for improvement.

It is a great old hotel, modernised enough to be successful now. It has a lively bar at the top floor and it is fairly big. Higher up rooms are spared the noise from the street. Two king sized beds do not leave a lot of room, but it is enough. The bathroom would benefit from closed shower, but there is little else to fault it. The WiFi is good and reliable.

The Beacon Grand is a super place to stay, the location is in the heart of the city, a moment from shopping areas and the cable cars, and trams, which deliver you in style to most parts of San Francisco. The hotel itself is an iconic building, with vaulted ceilings and pillars of the lobby. Like most city centre hotels around the world, I would suggest you ask for a bigger room and if your budget can stretch to it, go for a suite. You will be impressed and it's tremendous value for money. You get amazing views and a beautiful room, with space to stretch out. Other stand out features are the Post Room lobby bar and restaurant. The classic dry martini with a twist, was amongst the best I've had, which paired perfectly with my light and delicious food. Then there is the 21st floor Starlite lounge and bar. Wow, the views, vinyl DJ playing retro tracks and the friendly fun vibes, we had a wonderful time. Perhaps most of all though have been the staff, and especially Mr Wali. When he heard we had travelled from London and were back in San Francisco to celebrate our anniversary and honeymoon from almost thirty years ago. He was gracious and attentive and made our stay very special indeed.

My boyfriend and I stayed here this past weekend, and everything about this hotel was phenomenal. Upon check in, we were greeted by the nicest guy (I don’t recall his name, but he gave us a free drink ticket signed GS), who immediately made us feel right at home. Dan, the bellhop, was also wonderful. When we asked for recommendations in the area, he gave us some great ones. All of the workers at this hotel were absolutely wonderful but these two stood out. The room itself was lovely. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and it was quiet and peaceful at night, which made for a really relaxing stay. Room service was also excellent and exceeded our expectations. If I had to mention one small downside, it would be that the bathroom was a bit tiny, but honestly, it wasn’t a big deal at all. Overall, we had a great experience and would absolutely stay here again!
