Paid way more, but this is the best of the best
Yes, this is an expensive hotel, but I've actually paid more (ok, my *company* paid more).
I've stayed in great hotels all over the world, and this is best hotel I've ever stayed in. The rooms were amazing (we stayed in one of the better view rooms with the large tub overlooking SF Bay, Golden Gate Bridge, etc.) and it was simply amazing.
Beyond the excelent rooms though was the service. They have some kind of magic in thier ability to deliver extreme service without being imposing.
When it came to going above and beyond the call of duty, they were there. My wife needed a safety pin for her wedding dress (we stay there for our wedding nights) and they went to Walgreens to get one for her, no questions asked. Ditto pressing her wedding dress (it took three people to deliver it to our room). It was just amazing, and a real life saver.
Congratulations to MO staff in SF, you guys are amazing! I look forward to visiting other MO's in other parts of the world.
