Taj Campton Place, San Francisco

Until this year we found the restaurant to be one of the very best in SF and dined there many times. In May '06 we had one of the finest dinners ever--on a par with Michael Mina and Gary Danko. In May '07 we returned and were terribly disappointed. The new chef has ruined it. The choices on the prix fixe menu were limited and oddly priced. A $10 surcharge for lamb and no beef unless for a table of 3 or more. Bizarre! I prefer small portions but not the skimpy ones we were served. Our captain/waiter was knowledgeable and gracious but over-extended with too many tables. She wasn't able to give us the service we expected and which, I am sure, she would have liked to give. We shall certainly not return until and unless they find a new and competent chef.

I was set up to stay at the Taj Residency Bangalore and stayed there for about 3 1/2 weeks, with weekend stays at the Taj Exotica in Goa and the Oberoi in Agra. The Taj hotels practice what they preach; excellent customer service, delicious food, gorgeous amentities and reasonable prices. You'll have higher rates in peak season, but these hotels are well worth it. Some hidden surprises where how helpful the staff were, running to get souvenirs for me that I couldn't find, setting up DHL to come to the hotel to coordinate shipping items and providing reccomendations on things to do and places to see. I plan to go back to India and stay at the Mumbai/Dehli locations.

The location was perfect and the staff went out of their way to assist us with information on ski packages, tours and shopping. The service was great! The complimentary breakfast was a real treat and a money saver. We met other guests from all over the United States and enjoyed visiting with them.

I've stayed at this hotel only once. It was pretty good. It's hard to find though and there's no parking. Also, the concierge service was really poort.

The service is outstanding. The rooms are elegantly furnished, with very, very comfortable pillows and comforters. The slippers are a nice detail too. The staff are very good with the details. The location of the Campton place couldn't be better. Their gym is well equipped and easy to access. Always my first choice when I stay in San Francisco.

Enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The service was amazing and we felt like royalty. Great restaurant and bar were added plus to the hotel.

It's a great hotel but if any of you are looking to save some $$ then book it at Sweethoteldeals. Net They usually have some pretty good deals on there!

Location, Appointments.. every single thing is so high-end it's some what under-stated!

I'm from San Francisco, but have been living away for quite some time now. I've always wanted to try the Campton Hotel, and so this last trip home a few weeks ago I did. What a great hotel. Obviously, the location is perfect. But from the bellmen greeting you at the door, to the VERY helpful and gracious front desk staff, to the beautiful open-floor hallways, everything appears first class. While I received a room away from the elevators (as requested), some of the other rooms nearer the elevators appeared a bit small and may be noisy. But my room, while also a little small, was beautifully appointed. At finer hotels, I like to order room service and just relax, and so I did here. The room service food was surprisingly unbelievable. I ordered a light meal with a glass of wine, and the wine came in a very expensive, beautiful fine wine glass. With so many top hotels seemingly worried about in-room theft, it was refreshing to see a top hotel actually trust and treat its guests with respect and fine appointments. There are many top hotels in San Francisco and other major cities which could learn a lot from this hotel and the way it treats its guests and operates its business. Unfortunately, these other hotels will never do that, choosing instead to live off the laurels of their past or try to hood-wink us with run-down furnishings, phony accents and obnoxious attitudes. This hotel is the real deal, and I highly recommend it.

we loved that they had excellent service and we fell back in love again here, especially after having so much time apart because of work and the five children that we had and constantly having to move from house to house because we couldn't pay our bills, but when my sister watched the children we flew to California and came to this hotel and couldn't stop holding eachother's hand or kissing because it was just magical!
