Stayed at the Clift for 3 nights in November for business. Had booked through Splendia and was recieved kindly and efficiently with an upgrade. Only experienced impeccable and kind service and loved the hotel's overall decor and ambience. more

I would not recommend staying at the Clift. The common areas including the Redwood bar are beautiful so it’s a great spot as far as night life. I checked into one of their one bedroom suites on a Saturday evening. The room itself was generous in size but the bathroom was quite small and there was no half bath in... more

Awesome!!!

Worth every penny, right in the middle of the city and close to everything. The rooms are a work of art, beds are comfortable and awesome lounge. more

The Clift is well situated. Unfortunately, the rooms are incredibly tiny and worn down and the bathrooms are minuscule. A luxury hotel this is not. I have never stayed in a room with tinier bathrooms. It was quite depressing. The concierge in the late daytime wasn't particularly helpful. I would not recommend this hotel. more

Dear Millaw, Thank you very much for taking the time to let us know how you felt. Certainly we strive to provide stellar service with a personal touch, and it sounds like we missed the mark in your experience. We will certainly be sharing your feedback with our Concierge; I'm only sorry we didn't have the chance to change things...

I was able to land a fantastic rate at this hip, stylish hotel in downtown San Francisco. The desk staff was extremely friendly and helpful over the phone and greeted me by name. The concierge desk was prompt and assisted us correctly. Our room was extremely TINY but neat, clean and orderly. Everything in our room worked and was in... more

From the housekeeping and engineering teams, to those of us answering phones and greeting you at the doors, we do put quite a bit of care into...

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights while attending a conference. Upon arrival, we were impressed with the lobby. It was very modern and the decor was great. We went up to our room and were a little disappointed. Our bathroom was the size of a cruise ship bathroom...tiny. Our shower did not drain properly either. However, the service... more

Dear ajwtravelers, Many thanks for your candid review! We agree the bones of this historic hotel do not oversized bathrooms make, but we sincerely appreciate the fact that you appreciate the service and we would be thrilled to have you back. Hopefully you're enjoying your beautiful weather this time of year, and we'll look forward to the next opportunity. Best,...

The cost was too high for the services provided. I came to the hotel from the Four Seasons in Los Angeles where the rooms were twice as big for half the price with all the amenities. The edgy design does not merit top notch price and lack of amenities. On top of that, the tub wouldn't drain, the furniture in... more

Dear LuxThrillSeeker, Thank you very much for taking the time to post your comments. I'm so sorry to hear that none of the options for wine tours and excursions to Napa suited you. We can certianly sympathize; probably the only unfortunate thing about traveling to the wine country from the city is the means of transportation! There are many companies...

As a return guest to Clift, I was pleased with the continued gracious service and friendliness of all the staff. Traveling with a French friend, she was amazed by the recognition she received daily, and often in French. We dined in Asia de Cuba and enjoyed a lovely meal with exceptional service. The simple chic decor of our room was... more

I have stayed at Clift SO many times that I no longer bother to write an online review every time, but after seeing some negative titles popping up I felt I had to speak up and provide an alternate opinion. First of all, the reason I've stayed here so many times is that it is the ONLY place I will... more

Dear Kristin126, We LOVE your alternate opinion! (Of course we're hoping that most people feel as you do!) Honestly, this was totally unnecessary but ever so appreciated. Can't wait until the next time.... Your Clift family
