I had a great stay at the Beresford. The hotel had gone down hill until the new ownership -it's back to the good Beresford. The missing gem is the White Horse that made the hotel even that much more special. Staff was great and the room was clean. I will stay again for my next SF visit - mine was business related and they did a great job at valet with my rental.

Lots of local options to eat at. And they are open late too! It may get a little noisy outside the hotel but you can ask for earplugs if you want them. It's a historical building so beds might be a little creaky but otherwise, staff were friendly and the place was clean. We also did valet parking for 2 nights and no problems.
