Hotel Drisco Review

Reviewed by mouseRD from South Carolina on 1/9/09
Hotel Drisco was great for the second half of our SF adventure after returning from Carmel & the staff are helpful & accomodating in every way. We went on a self-guided tour of the area (gorgeous homes), did some shopping on Fillmore, enjoyed the restaurants in Pacific Heights & the Marina which is close by. Our room was a suite & had lovely city views; my only dissatisfaction was noise can be heard in rooms above & beds were rather hard, in my opinion.

The Hotel Drisco is a warm, comfortable neighborhood hotel with small, but well-planned rooms. Its neither plush nor high-end luxury, but it is cozy, quiet and charming. The rooms are well-thought out and everything you might need is considered (the bedside radio has pre-set stations, the bathroom has Aveda products and a thoughtful basket of bath supplies for purchase, etc.).
The free breakfast is enjoyable, and the dining room is light-filled and relaxing. Overall, the effect is like being in a B&B in a quiet neighborhood. And what a neighborhood it is: Pacific Heights is one of the priciest, and loveliest neighborhoods in San Francisco and it was a real delight to live among the splendor of the million-dollar homes in this area, if only for one night.
This is by no means a high-design business hotel for a fast-paced visit to the City by the Bay. This is a relaxed, welcoming residential retreat for people who want to be away from the usual hustle and bustle of San Francisco. If youre looking for peace, quiet and comfort, this hotel is a good choice.
