I was familiar with this hotel under its previous ownership, and always liked it, but the new owners have done a beautiful job refreshing the common areas and completely redecorating the rooms. They are now well-appointed, quite, and very attractive.

Loved our stay here. Alma at the front desk was so helpful with recommendations, including giving a mini history tour of the property. Gorgeous stay. Will come again!

Beautiful Hotel, Wonderful Staff, Excellent Location! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Beacon Grand, they had our room ready early and allowed us to check in which was amazing. The bed was very comfortable, and the blackout curtains made our morning so much more enjoyable. And there are several bars and restaurants within walking distance, perfect for our group!

The room was nice and spacious. The water bottles and fill stations were nice and came in handy and your pet accommodations. The bottle of champagne you gave for our engagement celebration was very nice.

The location, right next to Union Square and all the San Francisco main hubs to travel every where in the city.

The renovated hotel is gorgeous with a fantastic location. I would also like to send a big thank you to Stuart who assisted with our reservation. When I mentioned in our Booking.com booking that we were celebrating our anniversary Stuart responded that he was booking a special room for us, and boy did he ever. A free upgrade on a high floor with an incredible view! And a few other little perks. We were touched and bowled over. Will definitely stay at the Beacon Grand from now on whenever in San Francisco.

The location was perfect. We were within walking distant of both of our tours (about a 5-10 min walk). Starbucks is next door and a cool bar eighth across the street that has arcades and games. The room we got was the standard which was smaller compared to your chain hotels, but we didn’t need much space considering we were gone most of the day and only needed the room to sleep and get dressed. The tram stoped directly in front of the hotel which was super nice and convenient. You can ride it down to fisherman’s wharf. The bed was very comfortable. My husband snores, but the night we were there he slept so peacefully. Would definitely stay here again.

The staff was so sweet, friendly, and helpful. The bed was clean and incredibly comfortable. The bathroom was small but well lit and well stocked. The location was central and perfect for walking around or catching the public transit to anywhere in the city! They held out bags at no charge when we checked out as our flight home wasn’t until that evening

All the staff we as a party of 4 engaged with was so helpful and friendly. We asked a security guard to take our pictures on the steps looking up and he took the best group photo of the trip.

The room was clean and comfortable. I booked this hotel for my parents anniversary and they were more than delighted! great location and they even gifted them with some champagne! such a great gesture! thank you!
