Fodor's Expert Review Queen Anne Hotel

1590 Sutter St., San Francisco, California, 94109, USA

Built in the 1890s as a girls' finishing school, this Victorian mansion turned into a hotel is a taste of old San Francisco, with a large parlor and guest rooms that have classic touches, such as painted cherub murals and, in some, wood-burning fireplaces. Burgundy brocade, lace, heirloom antiques, stained glass, and inlaid wood floors add character throughout. Complimentary amenities include an expansive continental breakfast, daily newspaper, Wi-Fi, smartphone charging stations, and afternoon tea and sherry. The versatile parlor, salon/library, boardroom, and covered outdoor courtyard make this a popular spot for weddings.

PROS

  • lots of design character
  • library/salon will invite you to linger
  • old-time vibe that is hard to find in SF

CONS

  • substantial walk to downtown or main tourist areas
