As a group of 5 this hotel provided us a suite room cheaper than most of the VRBO's in the city. The hotel staff were inviting, the included breakfast was great, and most importantly the wine afternoon was lovely!! It was clean and well taken care of. Downside -- not a lot of restaurants around this area (we prefer more pub style where we can sit as opposed to grab-and-go sandwich options). Also, the street was very loud with a lot of unhoused people around during the evening hours. A lot of yelling, sirens, etc. that could be heard throughout the night.

Excellent hotel in San Francisco.

We came to the city for our vacation. We are very happy to stay in this hotel. The staffs there are very responsive and helpful. The breakfast was high quality. They offered storage for the luggage’s, this was a plus for us since we had a late flight after check out. I definitely recommend this hotel to my friends if they are visiting the city.

Was traveling with my husband and 3 adult children so needed a place for 5 of us. This hotel was great in that we had two queen beds and a murphy bed as well as a living area and kitchen. We were just there for one night be it was great. Afternoon reception and continental breakfast were appreciated! Will recommend and/or return again.

Hotel was reasonably priced. We liked the small kitchenette in the room. Two comfortable queen size beds in a large room. The bathroom was big too. Breakfast was pastries, fruit, yogurt, cereal and coffee which was okay. Really liked the happy hour - wine and cheese and biscuits - we would meet up in the foyer for a drink after our day out. At night the sirens and people shouting in the street kept us awake but we aren’t used to city living. Found we could walk to the tram or get an uber and even a driverless car very easily and reasonably to travel around. Parking at the hotel is extra and we had a car overnight for one night - the hotel take the car and keys off site - this worked well as they said leave up to half an hour to get the car in the morning which we did.

Good stay

Hotel was a nice stay. It is an older building. Staff was friendly. TV quality was not the best but the room was clean. I stayed in the suite room, bed was comfy, bathroom was clean, kitchen was clean and had plates available for us to use. Overall it was a good stay. Only critique is the breakfast, it was just bread options, coffee, and some fruits. We were under the impression it would be a full breakfast option the look on my little sisters face was priceless when she saw the options so it gave me a good laugh.

My sister and I stayed at the Beresford arms while our father went through a very rough surgery at UCSF. They always asked how he was doing, kept our room incredibly clean, and the male staff always made sure my sister and I made it into the hotel and our room safely at night. I will forever recommend the Beresford arms to anyone, and stay there for any future trips to San Francisco.
