The initial decision on staying in this hotel was because it was located in a walking distance to Union Station and the cable cars. And its rate was one of the lowest, yet had the best overall rating in tripadvisor and other sources. Its valet parking service is really good. It was $27 for 24 hrs. The big plus is... More

I was able to book a "queen suite" (two queen beds and a wet bar), for two nights at a very good rate. Terrific location on Post Street, near Union Square Comfortable, spacious room, very clean, and wine was offered in the lobby each afternoon. Limited breakfast, from what i could tell, but we didn't try it. I would definitely... More

...there was too much. We were on the top floor and the heat was up too high, a problem they admitted to and was being worked on but not solved in our visit. We needed to sleep with the windows open, and SF isn't a quiet town on the weekends. I'm presuming it's since been attended to. The rooms were... More

A group of friends and I went to San Francisco for a benefit. We found this to be a convenient place to have two or three grown folks to a room. The hotel looks like it used to be apartments, so the rooms are very spacious suites. It was great to have a kitchen so we could actually take home... More

There were great restaurants with in a short walking distance. Afternoon Tea in the hotel lobby was charming.Rooms were clean and spacious. All of the... More

I stayed at the Bereford Arms after staying in the smaller and cheaper sister Beresford Hotel in Sept 2009. My friend and I had planned on hiring a car and going on a road trip but the rental people refused. We had no booking at all in San Fran since our time at the Bereford Hotel was over and we... More

We booked into the Beresford Arms primarily based on reviews on TripAdvisor. Although our room was called a Junior Suite, but since it was only $159/night, I was concerned that it might be small and out of date. The exact opposite was true. The hotel is a historic structure that has maintained its grandeur and charm. Our suite had 2... More

We really enjoyed our stay at the Beresford Arms this past week. The location is convenient and the area feels safe. It's worth noting that the seedy Tenderloin area is a couple blocks away. We stayed in Room 400, which faces Post Street. Saturday night was very loud with the bar crowd out in full force late into the evening.... More
