The Cornell Hotel de France is a must stay for frequent visitors to SF. It is like being in an old hotel in France. The wall prints of famous French painters along with hand painted details on the walls was amazing. The complementary breakfast was in a beautiful room in the basement where the high end French restaurant used to be. I loved the old elevator with the metal grate.

This was our second stay at Cornell Hotel de France. We love the location, friendly staff and decor. Our room was big enough and quiet enough on the 5th floor. We enjoyed the breakfast downstairs in the dining room. We mostly walked and took public transit all over San Francisco. But one night, we did take advantage of Waymo self driving cars and we highly recommend it. Waymo is a very good driver and gets you safely to your destination.
