Wonderful...the amenities, the spa, the massage therapists...love this place. The bartenders are asleep at the wheel and when you are spending 7.00 a beer and 10.00 a drink...you'd like some eye contact, but the rest of the experience was fantastic. Good hotel staff. Clean rooms, Spacious bathrooms/rooms. I will probably never partake in the restaurants again, but you need to "experience" the Tonga Room at LEAST once in your life!
Pros: views, hotel staff, cleanliness
Cons: bar staff

Well, what will $85M buy you?? An absolutely beautiful hotel restoration!! I checked in and asked for a room on a higher floor (2nd floor), and whalla - a tasteful mini-suite upgrade in the Tower. Gorgeous, unobstructed corner views of the skyline with a marble shower!! Dining in the Tonga, wait staff saw that I was having a hard time cutting my filet, and promptly gave me a sharper knife!! I tipped well - but extra tip was refunded before I got back upstairs since gratuities were included with meal!! They actually gave my money back. Easy location, close to cable car, muni, etc. A must stay in S.F!!!
Pros: great views, "old" luxury, AAA+++ Service
Cons: no shuttle fr airport
