Hotel for Shopping
a one nighter courtesy of Offsprings Starwood points,
but it was in the landmark building without view, corridors somewhat plebian, what else can one expect from SPG points, it was a free stay for me.
The Lobby walks onto Union Sqaure, shoppers when looking across the signs can only UUHH and AAhhssssssss
Unique Quality: Historical, burnt but rebuilt, from the era of Biltmore of LA or US Grant in San Diego
I first noted with more interest this Hotel when Food Network documented the Clock Bar being created by Michelin chef Michael Mina
Directions: From Market St, walk a few blocks North, once you past Geary street and Union Square, it's on your left click for MAP
The Grand Dame of Union Square part 2
more pictures of the inside of this old but elegant hotel.
The Grand Dame of Union Square was built by the San Francisco Pioneers well before the 1906 earthquake and it survived it! this grand hotel had seen it all since then including the famous fatty arbuckle parties and incident in the 1920's. Upon entering this Majestic Hotel, marble columns, ornate balconies, and intricate woodwork transport guests back to the elegance of yesteryears and just outside the front door, you can see that cable cars pull to a convenient stop before gooing to the powell turnstile. This Magnificent hotel is just steps from the Theater District and is situated right smack in Union Square! Prices here start at $ 225 a night if you are a Californian and for regular room specials at $ 250 and $ 325 on regular days
Unique Quality: The St. Francis features the St. Francis Health Club & Spa, a shopping promenade, superb conference and catering facilities, a full-service business center, two lounges, and three restaurants, including Historic Oak Room Restaurant & Lounge, Caruso's Coffee & Lobby Bar, and the award-winning signature restaurant Bourbon Steakhouse by Michael Mina.

Beauty in Union Square
I've stayed twice at the Westin St. Francis and both were great experiences.
My first stay was business travel and we were lucky enough to stay on the "original wing" of the hotel. This wing had an old elevator and beautiful gilded ceilings, chandeliers, and old stairwells that looked beautiful, but scary nonetheless. The Victorian charm collided the plasma TV's and ipod hookups was actually quite enjoyable.
My second stay was in the much more modern "new wing". Just as nice of a hotel, but I preferred the charm of the hotels original fixtures and elegance.
Unique Quality: The BEST quality of the Westin St. Francis is by far the location. In the heart of Union Square you are walking distance to every great shopping spot in downtown SF. From Neiman's to Saks and Forever21 to Nordstom's- there is something for everyone.
The Powell street cable car runs right by and just about every fun destination is less than a $10.00 cab ride away.
Also- the service at WSF is awesome. The concierge will give great reservations and the bellman will get you a cab ASAP.
Stay here for the ultimate SF experience, trust me it's worth it!
Too much money for what you're getting
This is a very famous hotel, its location is superb and the building is historic.
No wonder they are able to charge such a high price for what in my opinion are mediocre rooms.
Small, and a bit outdated. It's a good thing they have a nice new flat screen HDTV. That sorts of made up the size and the distinctly average bathroom.
I was already upgraded to their tower room. I can imagine that the standard room in their historic building to be even smaller.
This should be assessed relative to the room. I paid $200/night. I have no problem paying that kind of money if the room is at least 400sqft and nicely appointed. It wasn't. Thus, I think this hotel is overpriced.
Probably the one of the bright spots of this hotel. The posh Michael Mina restaurant is located here; and the Clock Bar is a very nice looking bar/lounge. The staff is also very knowledgeable and friendly.
Being right at Union Square is one of this hotel's best selling points. I however, don't care too much for it. Union squire is always very crowded and there are always beggars loitering around the area. I like staying near Union Square, just not at Union Square.
6 out of 10. Decent, but not more than that.

If you dont like someone, recom Westin St. Francis
We took a 12 hour flight plus an hour's drive to check in at $249/night plus tax and stayed here from April 17-21. My husband needed to attend a grand company awarding banquet equivalent to their own Nobel Prize.
Day1:Small room in Old wing facing 2 walls & Union Square. After showering, I surfed for Sanfo spots & prepared to zzz when we heard 3 loud knocks from the room beside us. We info the Operator to tell Front Desk/Security and give us a reason. 15ms. passed w/o any answer and we called Front Desk. We were surprised that their reaction was to move us to another room w/c we find unacceptable since we were already too weary. Duty Manager (DM) did not give a reason and insisted on moving us "pronto". We thought of calling Police for addtl assist & asked him if he lives in Sanfo so we can get the right local number. He hung up. Husband went to lobby to inquire why we are getting harassed by room neighbour & was barred by two massive hotel securities from approaching DM who hung up. Hotel security said it is by LAW that they can/should prevent us from asking why and that room neighbour (from So. Africa) called 911 to complain about us being noisy. Who can afford to be noisy after a 12hour flight when all we felt was sleeping? It is appalling that they concluded neighbor was correct and did not bother to hear our side. We went back to our room feeling so harassed and discriminated. Only then did we realize that they knew why neighbor knocked and did not bother to answer our original question why he/she knocked. We hung the Do not Disturb sign on our door & proceeded to write a complain letter when we heard a knock from Security telling us neighbour complained again bec our TV (set at 10/50) was too noisy. This happened despite the DND sign and again, Security concluding neighbor was correct. We asked him to enter room to ascertain if TV was indeed too loud but he refused. It was then that we concluded that our own security was in peril. We complained the following day to Hotel GM about bad experience and Security Director offered to move us to a different suite plus a free bfast at Oakroom. Not wanting to have a picky hotel neighbour, aggravated by Duty Manager who does not want to listen and harassing Security people, we agreed to move. We thought that was the end of our misery. Day 2 bfast at Oakroom: For price, was too inferior from bfast I've had in other hotels (eg. Shangrila, Shanghai). New room in Tower wing was bigger. After they cleaned room, we saw 2 used champagne glasses on bedside table. Ordered in-room dinner that arrived promptly and afterwards, rolled table outside room to avoid food smell. Food table with leftovers was still there when we woke up ff day. We toured city and went back that night to see the same food table in the hallway. Twin shower were overpriced when they did not even give bedroom slippers, bubble bath, toothbrush/paste, or a comb. At $249++, you need to call and ask for it. Not that I do not carry my own toiletries, but I've seen more luxurious treatment from lesser hotels like Sheraton Suzhou.
Parking was $49. Lobby lounge chairs infront of Michael Mina restaurant were falling apart aside from looking like a soggy soufflé.
Saving grace: Gracious lobby host welcomed us very well and she gave tips on what to see in SanFo. Slider sandwiches in Caruso were tasty. Everything went downhill after that since Hotel GM did not even bother to explain aside from his cursory "sorry" note.
Overall, will not recommend nor think of going back. Not worth the hassle and worry we felt for the money paid. By the way, we learned that husband's company blacklisted hotel due to many negative feedback from banquet attendees.
Unique Quality: Great location since historic cable route passes right infront of main entrance. If you feel proud reminiscing that other dignitaries have stayed in this Westin then go ahead, plunge.
Directions: Right in famous Union Square with retail theraphy surrounding it. Disney, Borders, Saks at Fifth Ave, Macy's, Nordstrom a few steps away.
Shopping San Francisco's best location
We travelled from Melbourne to San Francisco and had upgraded from our package hotel located elswehere. I am so glad we did, the Westin St Francis was located right in Union Square and within walking of all good shopping and restaurants etc. The staff were friendly and helped with day trip bookings. The room was a little small but had a separate area for luggage and a large wardrobe. The bed was amazingly comfortable. The bathroom was small but great fittings, toiletries etc and it did us for a couple of days. The area was safe and that is the reason we chose it being new to overseas travel. The old tower section is pretty old and does have a musty smell in the hallway but the sense of history and the location of this hotel is worth it although we had no view at all. All staff were accommodating supplying free coffee etc while we waited for a bus. I would recommend this for the prime location and great photos you can take of the front of the building.
Unique Quality: The bed would have to be the best feature of this hotel, the linen and comfy factor were outstanding. The foyer is also amazing and sitting there with a coffee makes you feel pretty good.
Directions: Union Square
Quality hotel on Union Square
Top notch hotel & service. Great views from upper floors.
You can walk to most of the main sights downtown or take one of the many trams.
Unique Quality: Recommend the half day minivan tour of the city with Pacific Line. The guide was knowledgable and friendly.
Directions: On Union Square
High style at reasonable cost
Great old hotel with great views of Union Square. Pricey but nice for a romantic weekend getaway
Unique Quality: Historic and unique location overlooking the Square
Directions: Union Square
Great view of Union Square
We stayed in a room facing Union Square great view of all the activity down below. Alot of street noise from the room, sirens and cable cars, but we were in the city!
Unique Quality: For over a century...
Located in the heart of the city, facing Union Square, it has maintained its preeminence as San Francisco?s center of social, theatrical, and business life since first opening in 1904. As one of the last survivors of colorful, turn-of-the-century San Francisco, The Westin St. Francis is as modern as tomorrow ? with a proud past ? a collecting place of history and legend.
Only remaining hotel from the
I marveled at its structure - it being the only hotel standing after a devasting earthquake. It's over 100 years old.
Union Square has its proximity to shopping, museums, and of course access to all of San Francisco. Opera curbside was exsuisite on a beautifully clear, and windy day in October . Service was impeccable, amenties sufficient, comfortable and spacious. The drinks flow and the food is excellent.
Unique Quality: Views could not be had from my room. Mine was a functional accommodation; the business guest - at a reasonable cost with a reasonable amount of shopping. Taxis readily available and staff anxious to assist.
Fabulous Hotel In the center of town
This was one of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed in, right on the square with a cable car stop right in front. I highly recommend this one, the excellent accomadations are well worth the steep price.
Unique Quality: Historic building, great location, rumored to have ghosts.......
Westin St Francis
What a great hotel. I loved this hotel so much. Great location and lovely hotel.
Unique Quality: Views over Union Square.
Great views from the super speedy lifts.
Close to Macy's and the Cheesecake Factory. (Yum).
The Legendary Service Was Nowhere to be Seen
We had heard lots of great things about the legendary service at the Westin St Francis, so we were very disappointed by our stay there.
We found the staff to be rude and difficult. At one point we had to practically beg for a safety deposit box, even though they were free to guests, because the receeptionist did not think our reasons for wanting one was good enough.
Even though the hotel itself was not as good as expected (for a 4 star hotel) the location could not have been better. It is situated right on Union Square with Macy's one side and Tiffany & Co. on the other side and the cable cars stop right outside.
Unique Quality: Tour Desk and Hire Car Desk situated in the lobby.
Directions: Union Square Location.
When I first visited SF in the 80's, my two friends and I stayed at the Westin St. Francis Hotel. It is a wonderful experience in luxurious, traditional San Francisco style. Whether you stay here or not, during your visit, walk in and look around the beautiful lobby and if you have the time and inclination, have some food or a drink in the very relaxing Compass Rose bar and restaurant. It's really a treat - expensive - but worth it if you love quality.

Sara Jean Underwood's Incredible Booty
January 28th, 2011
I've had Sara Jean Underwood on the site many many times before because she's one hell of a hottie and she always seems to be wearing some sort of skimpy outfit that shows off that killer body of hers, these are no exception. Here she is posing for something or rather, who cares, she's wearing a tiny pair of electric blue booty shorts that illustrate just how spectacular her ass is. I could stare at that thing until I go cross eyed. Awesome.

Actress/Doritos girl Ali Landry gave birth to a baby boy on Saturday (Oct. 8) in Los Angeles, People reports. Landry and husband Alejandro Monteverde welcomed their new 8-lb son Marcelo Alejandro at 5:40 p.m.
Marcelo joins older sister Estela Ines, 4.
The 38-year-old former Miss USA says she survived morning sickness by eating grilled cheese sandwiches.
"I was definitely more nauseous –basically morning, noon, and night and eating horribly, like tons of carbs,' Landry told People in June. "Grilled cheese sandwiches, that was my thing."
Landry and Monteverde married in 2006, one year after Landry's marriage to "Extra" host Mario Lopez was annulled just two weeks after their wedding.

n EXAMINE carefully the stamp on the letter I reproduce below. Yes, you're right, all franked and everything, but it isn't the Queen, is it? Don't worry, you'll place her in a minute. I received this letter last week. Another one arrived on Friday morning. They were sent by one of my extensive network of correspondents, Mr Long of Loughton, Essex. (Mr Stallybrass of Bognor: all very interesting, but you have yet to match the coincidence of Bognor fire station being struck by lightning on Jung's birthday.) Why is Mr Long doing this? I'm not sure, but he's a bit of a joker, and it is timely. What does the Royal Mail say? They can't understand how Mr Long's stamps have satisfied their sophisticated electronic machinery. Has he committed an offence? They won't prosecute unless he starts sending them in large numbers. The Captain writes: don't try this at home because it will get me up on a conspiracy charge.
ACTUALLY, while we're on correspondence, let's go straight on into Interactive Corner and continue our discussions about eating squirrels. Ms Mitchell of Ashford tells me that hedgehog tastes very like squirrel and wonders if I know that you can eat a panda's paw, while Ms O'Shaunessy, from nearby Tenterden, asks if it might not be possible for fancy chefs to start cooking squirrel as a help in the battle against "the grey vermin". Concluding that they would probably insist on red ones, she then goes into reminiscence mode about the way her old grandmother used regularly to give them rook pie. It was, she says, perfectly disgusting.
n SOMETIMES, I wonder why I bother. Quiet at the back, please! Anyway, at the end of '95, those who can remember that far back will recall that I published a list of things we could do without in the new year. One of them was prattling on about the Millennium. But already, I see, there has been at least one outbreak of columnar musing about what to call the first decade of the next thousand years. Can we settle this one now: it's quite simple, they should be called the Noughties. Also, despite another stricture, people are still ringing up Terry Major-Ball. It is with a heavy sense of foreboding that I note that 1996 is the Diamond Jubilee of Butlin's, Terry's favourite holiday venue. Stand by. By the way, does anybody know anything entertaining about Bill Blair, Tony's brother? Will he match up to Terry? Does he also enjoy DIY? Let me know, usual terms.
YES, it's Memory Lane with Captain Moonlight! And today's ramble is prompted by the call from Lord Stoddart of Swindon in the Lords last week for the return of the trolley bus, which he described as "the cleanest and best, most efficient form of public transport that we have invented". Up to a point, Lord Stoddart. I remember the old trolley buses when we were young, living on Prescot Road, St Helens, just up from that tricky corner at Toll Bar, where there's the junction with the road to Thatto Heath, the one that goes up to Elephant Lane past the chemist near Owen Street. Frank Flynn was another chemist in St Helens, used to make his own cough medicine, Flynn's Black Magic. But back to the trolley buses. They were always coming off the wires on that corner at Toll Bar. Just thought I'd mention it.
n BUT it does give me the opportunity to tell you my bus joke. A boy is standing with a man in the aisle of a bus. "Move farther up the bus, please," shouts the conductor. The boy, puzzled, replies: "It isn't my father, it's my grandfather." Oi!
HEY, let's do some more on buses. Scandinavian buses! Yes, thank you, I know all about the cheap sneers. Mention Norway, and you can expect a lot of feeble jokes about the Eurovision Song Contest delivered in a sing-song accent; but how many of these people know that it was a Norwegian who invented the paper clip? Similar cheap cliches abound about the Swedes: gloomy, dull, humourless. To which I respond: Stefan Edberg. Nevertheless, I expect more mockery will greet an entirely sensible initiative on the Swedish buses, a four-minute safety video just like the ones they have on airplanes, complete with helpful information about where the doors are and such. As I said, entirely sensible, so please don't expect any jokes from me about coming round with the duty free. And while we're on ridiculous stereotypes, I suppose much fun will be had about this trip Jack Cunningham and his shadow heritage sidekick, Mark Fisher, are planning to Australia to study the way they handle culture there.
n SPONSORSHIP latest: not good, I'm afraid. I had to send out my own champagne last week, and there's not much of that left, I can tell you. You remember I had high hopes of The Glenlivet stumping up a couple of cases? Well, the lady from The Glenlivet is not returning my calls, which I do not interpret optimistically. My friend Dick from the sports department did say that he would have a word with his Dad, who works for a brewery up north, but I've not heard since. If things don't improve, I might have to approach the family firm for more of the lager beyond the sell-by date they sometimes foist on me.
YOU will be wanting to know what happened to my readers' poll on whether the regular item "Observer Shame" should continue. Well, the result was exactly neck-and-neck, so I suppose I shall have to make a decision myself. Meanwhile, let me tell you about this Christmas drinks party given by the editor of the Observer, Andrew Jaspan, or Jockey Jaspan, as I understand he is known, on account of his stature. Anyway, Jockey made a speech which began ordinarily enough but then descended into a series of Queegish imprecations about disloyal staff complaining and talking the newspaper down (Captain's note: it's not doing very well at the moment). He's right, too, you know: the principal reason I'm telling you all this is to stop his staff ringing up and telling me about it. See you next week, if we're spared!
"FIGHT? I have not yet begun to fight." Thus, last week, John Major, rallying his support in the face of Tony Blair's stakeholders, and quoting John Paul Jones, the Scottish sailor who fought for the Americans in their War of Independence. It was, sadly, a misquote. Jones was not being invited to fight: he had been called upon to surrender; his response was simply "I have not yet begun to fight". Even so, I'm not sure Jones is a good Major role model. True, he also changed his name (lengthened from John Paul, while the Prime Minister has shortened his from Major- Ball) and he did win that fight, against the Royal Navy's Serapis off the Scottish coast in 1779; but he was also a slaver and smuggler and he died in complete obscurity in 1790. His faults, notes the Dictionary of National Biography, were due to defective training and a desire for "glory". Most of his crew, by the way, were French.
The Captain's catch-up Service
BORED with the really important news? Try my exclusive review of some of the other things that happened last week ... Toto the dog, who starred in the Wizard of Oz in 1939 and was later preserved by a taxidermist, went on sale in Hollywood for pounds 2,300 ... A museum dedicated to the pork pie is to be built in Melton Mowbray ... Yasmine Bleeth, star of Baywatch, the television series about lifeguards, revealed that her male co-stars have their armpits trimmed ... Deep-sea fishermen in the Barents Sea were disappointed when a heavy catch turned out to be a Ford Fiesta ... Sporting Lisbon and Chaves played for two minutes to complete a soccer match abandoned 12 days before because of a power cut. Sporting made a 625-mile round trip. The score remained at 1-1 ... A Dutch motorist was run over and killed after he stopped on a motorway near Amsterdam to give first aid to a rabbit ... and, finally, Llanwrtyd Wells has revived the Roman festival of Saturnalia. "It's really a case of when in Mid-Wales, do as the Romans did," said Gordon Green, owner of the Neuadd Arms Hotel.

I mean really... Listen to the advice he gives... the "hot tips" which are great in here. This is a guy who really practices what he preaches and is honest about it.4 of 4 magicians found this helpful.
He talks about milking the effect which is so important. So many people want to rush to the end but there's a road that tales us there that can be fun. If you rush to the end you are missing out and what makes the trick entertaining!
His talk at the end was probably the most valuable part. He mentions the importance of being able to perform 10 tricks well and how amazing it is if you can perform just 1 trick for a whole evening. If you look beyond the tricks and there is a gold mine of great advice and tips.
As for the tricks (which are certainly worth it as well): I learned some nice things to add into my rope routine, how much I've been missing out on the acrobatic knot, a few nice techniques I can add into my ambitious card and a great coin trick transpo.
If you guys enjoyed this Live Lecture and Daryl's style, look into "Papa Rabbit Hits The Big Time" which is a fantastic routine for the sponge bunnies.
Enjoy! And Daryl, You're one of the greats. Thanks for sharing your wisdom with us! :-)

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 2nd, 2013
All the material in here to me is workable material for the real world. Daryl ensures that every trick he does even if it requires a gaff ends clean. This to me is the most important part of an effect and even though I might not use every routine on the lecture the thinking behind them was worth the $$$ to me.4 of 4 magicians found this helpful.
Finally I have a routine for my Bounce no Bounce balls that I will actually use!
No "WOW" Factor Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 1st, 2013
I have been a long-time subscriber for the Penguin LIVE Lectures and this is by far on the lower end of the list. Daryl, being as great of a magician that he is - focused on tricks that are all found in any beginner's magic set. There wasn't one effect that gave a "WOW" factor. It seemed like this lecture was created for people starting out in magic. Pretty disappointed in this one.6 of 9 magicians found this helpful.

Great Lecture!!! Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 2nd, 2013
I met Daryl when I was in my early 20's back in the 70's at the Magic Castle, he was excellent then, he still is. I don't think one should watch these lectures for the new best trick, new gaffs or material, but more for what works, what's entertaining, and the little nuances that help create more than a trick, that's the meat. Try to grasp what makes a pro a pro. Sure go buy your flipper coins etc. but you are doing yourself a disservice by not learning a classic or finger palm and putting it into a simple, non-confusing routine that works. Daryl understands and shows this. Do a double lift like his..., classic palm a coin like him..., then work out some material without all the gaffs, when you have all that, then add them in if need be. Daryl showed more than just tricks and if you miss that then you will miss the lecture. An example would be the sponge balls. Anybody who has done this enough, especially table hoppers will tell you that people once in a while will open their hand early. He taught how to combat that problem or at least know if there will be one. He also said once you have made a ball appear in their hand there is nothing more you can do to make it better. He gets it, and passes it on to us. I wonder how many magicians use this trick as I personally feel it's the best trick on earth (sorry for the personal side note). Professor's Nightmare is another overlooked effect, nevermind the awesome routine he did with it!! It's this insight that needs to be learned and he did a fantastic job explaining it - along with some great routines. Personally I loved the no bounce glass! Thanks Daryl.3 of 3 magicians found this helpful.
Quality material! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 9th, 2013
Well I haven't been the lucky ones to get his Fooler Doolers tapes/dvds but from what I see here it's quality. You get a lot from seeing him perform and his little bits of business. His rope act alone is worth the price of the lecture, it's a 7-10 minute act with just rope, and that's ready to go anywhere.2 of 2 magicians found this helpful.
Was great to watch him lecture... Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 2nd, 2013
...because he's Daryl.2 of 2 magicians found this helpful.
And if I was going to recommend a lecture to a newbie, this would be near the top of the list.
But mostly it was the same things I've already seen him do on his tapes (yeah, tapes... remember those??) and I PERSONALLY can't get into his Elvis/preacher thing, though I can appreciate some people enjoy that.
Anyway, if you're a pro and just want to watch one of the greats do-it-again, you'll enjoy this. If you're new at the art, you should almost definitely watch this. If you are experienced and want to learn new things or hear a lot of important tips and philosophies.... it ain't here.

Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 27th, 2014
The material taught is all standard Daryl material. So if you've seen him before, you likely won't get anything new here. But if you haven't seen Daryl before, his material is always unique, visual, and well-structured. He's got mad chops but doesn't really teach any difficult material. All is fairly easy to learn/perform and the plots are different than standard fare.1 of 1 magicians found this helpful.
Useful, classic material Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on November 4th, 2014
Almost every trick/act in this superb download is absolutely practical, useful, and downright awesome material that you will use in the real world. You will use at least one of these tricks in your act, and even if you don't then the advice on tricks like the ambitious card routine is worth getting. with so much stuff on this download it is hard to go through every thing but... it DARYL so you know its going to be great. Oh and also he tips the secret on the acrobatic knot
