beautiful, sophisticated but noisy
SF traveler Jun 1, 2009
daytime is nice but lobby/bar was SO noisy at night we were forced to leave area. We intended to have a drink in the bar and ... chat with our group of 6 but didn't order a drink as we had to shout to each other. It didn't help that the DJ was playing really awful tunes SUPER loud. They need to get a more sophisticated vibe going late night. Also approached by a person asking for money while sitting in lobby.

A 'must-stay' place
Yvette Dec 29, 2008
I loved being at this hotel. Every effort has been made to ensure comfort, from the bedding, to the desk, the armchair which ... comes with a throw, a side table, the 'huge' flat screen TV (for checking the weather, of course). The bathroom was spotless, had modern fittings, and good products (great if you've forgotten shampoos, etc.). The closet had more than enough hangars, and there was an umbrella for rainy days. During my 2.5 day stay the staff were professional with exactly the right touch of personalized attention--this included staff at the check-in desk, room service staff, the doormen and porters. The business center was accessible, and everthing worked--no slow internet connection, immediate printing facilities. The cost is pretty high, though. The hotel's wifi service was great--no slow connection here. For quick business meetings,I found ample spaces to sit--if not in the bar, then in a low-lit lounge near the elevators, or even in a seating area in the business center. The decore is contemporary and definitely not that soon-to-be-worn-at-the-edges 'euro-chic' of some upscale contemporary hotels. It would not appeal to anyone who likes floral prints, frills, matching carpet and bedspread. And it would not appeal to anyone who does not like their bar stool to light up when they sit down. It might be too 'hip' for some. On Friday and Saturday nights, the bar is pretty filled with primarily younger people, but the sound does not spill out, and the hotel is careful not to let this impact upon paying guests who have 'guest privilege' cards that move you ahead of any line up (people do line up for the bar). The restaurant is superb, but watch out for the helpings. They are HUGE. I'd stay there again.

Fun, boutique hotel
Sarah Jul 27, 2008
If you are looking for the beautiful scene, then the ClIFT Hotel is sure to please. The CLIFT hotel has a very swanky ... interior. The bar in the hotel attracts crowds of people lining the block each night to get in. As a guest of the hotel, we were able to skip the line and head right into the bar. On the down side, The rooms were very small and the bathroom was disgusting. Our view consisted of an air conditioner unit which was a HUGE disappointment. What we got was a horrible view of noisy air conditioner unit. Next time I stay there, I will make sure to spend the extra money for a view and some extra sq feet!

Good but....
DAVID Mar 9, 2008
Somewhat trendy and you probably pay a bit extra for this. Room was also trendily decorated and this led to some ... 'dysfunction'. For example, the beside tables were orange perspex cubes, with no storage space. The Clift bar is renowned and had a great atmosphere with an 'in' crowd - was nice to be 'in' for a change!!

My review of Clift
Lele Sep 23, 2007
The room was quite small for what we paid; especially the bathroom. The bathroom was not very clean-soap scrum looked like it ... was not accumulated over night. The lobby was best part of the entire hotel in term of presentation and cleanliness. Yes, it was very hip with great location, but that was all it got to offer.

great location for shopping and city night life
Amy Jul 9, 2007
The Clift was a great place to stay. We ended up going out a couple of nights, but the other nights we found plenty of fun ... in the lobby at the Redwood Room. Locals recommended it to us as a happening spot without knowing that we were staying at the Clift! Same thing for the restaurant. We were able to start our evening with dinner in the lobby at Asia de Cuba and end it with cocktails in the Redwood Room. So convenient. The room was a little small, but had everything we needed. Might not be great for more than two guests-we would have needed a second room had we brought our children. There were several great places to eat within walking distance and it seemed like you could catch a cab easily and get almost anywhere in about 10 minutes. We loved the location of the hotel as much as our weekend in San Francisco.

Every retailer you can think of is within walking distance at all the shops along Grant. Then if you prefer an indoor shopping experience....they are all inside San Francisco Center AGAIN which is also within walking distance.

Dissappointed
Kerri Apr 21, 2007
The Clift was not what I expected. I know Phillippe Stark's work and I enjoyed the ambience of the hotel, but I was ... disatisfied with the smallness of the room. There was also hair in the tub when we first arrived. I called room keeping and they recleaned the bathroom. The fact that to light a votive candle cost $16 was ridiculous. That should have been an amenity. Also, offering items for sale was tacky. They should have a small gift shop if they want to sell things. I enjoyed the lounge area and the restaurant was superb! I really wish they had a laptop to use in the laptop. I would have liked to check my email from the hotel. I find these in small hotels in New Hampshire. All in all, it was not as nice as I expected.
