From the moment we arrived we have been thrilled with this hotel! Our family of 5 arrived from a very early flight a little weary and hungry, Derek at the front desk promptly arranged for our room to be ready for us for early check in, and for us to attend breakfast before it closed. He then gave us coupons for a couple of local restaurants. The room was spacious and comfortable and we all got the best night’s sleep we have had for the whole trip on our family holiday. The pillows are amazing!! Location of hotel is very convenient and close to everything we need. Would def recommend to others. Thanks HIE!!

“Comfortable, Friendly, Good Location”

Incredibly friendly staff, very good location (10 min walk to many touristy places including Pier 39, Hyde St cable car stop etc), and comfortable rooms (we stayed in a suite). The breakfast was good, too. We were disappointed that there was no kettle in the room; they have a water/tea/coffee stati… more

The breakfast was good, too. We were disappointed that there was no kettle in the room; they have a water/tea/coffee station in the main lobby area. Would definitely stay again for a short stay if we returned to SF.

“Great Staff, Bad Location, Get Ready to Pay a Premium For Parking and a View”

This hotel is doing what they can with what they have but Fisherman's Wharf isn't what it used to be. The hotel itself is nice, the staff is outstanding, but the lack of a pool, either indoor or outdoor, is a lost opportunity. Worse, I bought the daily parking package and I honestly still don't kno… more

This hotel is doing what they can with what they have but Fisherman's Wharf isn't what it used to be. The hotel itself is nice, the staff is outstanding, but the lack of a pool, either indoor or outdoor, is a lost opportunity. Worse, I bought the daily parking package and I honestly still don't know what I got for it other than something the manager told me about having guaranteed, priority parking. There's a big sign out front touting valet parking for $65.00 plus tax per day so I doubt they'd turn you away if you checked in without the parking package but hey, I could be wrong and I didn't want to gamble. Likewise, I paid extra for a bay view and I'm glad I did because if we had one of the internally facing rooms we'd have opened our curtains to see the room across from us and this red, cement floor below. That wouldn't have made us happy. That said, what they call a bay view is really a "pier view" because the piers across the way obstruct the view of the bay. It does produce a cool optical illusion where Alcatraz appears to be perched on top of them (see the attached picture of the view from our room). Was the daily parking package and bay view worth the expensive premium we paid? Yes, because I wouldn't want to risk parking and have that internal view. But again, the area has gone so downhill that without Ghirardelli Square it wouldn't be worth visiting these days. I'd consider staying in the Holiday Inn Express located north just over the Golden Gate Bridge near Sausalito. It's more spread out, in a better neighborhood but you can still access San Francisco if you have to.

“Not the best ”

The hotel is clean and tidy and had a lot of young tourists who were banging their doors late in the evening. This was reported to the reception, who did go to ask the relevant people in room 266 to quiten down. Breafast finished at 9.30am and no bar at the property. Try the Riyu 200 yrds away ins… more
