W San Francisco

South of Market (SOMA) San Francisco|2.11km from Muir Woods Shuttles and Tours
I used to be a frequent guest at the W SF back when it was Starwood but had not visited since Marriott took over the W Brand. I did try and stay last year but before arriving I read that the restaurant was closed and I asked the hotel what they were doing as an alternative, but they had absolutely nothing for Platinum Breakfast (other than 1k points per stay which is a HUGE downgrade), so I opted for another hotel. I had high expectations for this stay as I had previously loved this hotel, but as a frequent traveler in Marriott brands and having one of their Highest Elite traveler statuses (and staying at W Brands lately), I knew service levels were still suffering post pandemic. Unfortunately, it started low right from the beginning. I had confirmed a Studio Suite in advance. When I arrived, I was given a corner room that almost seemed smaller than standard rooms (Room 2109). I inquired about upgrades to larger rooms, and I was told no, because it was a busy weekend, and nothing would be available. I checked on the app and saw that every room type was available for the length of my stay and beyond. I was basically DOWNGRADED. Once settling into the room, then I realized the major issues. Smaller rooms should be easier to clean, right? Well, this one not only had carpet stains, but I quickly found out that the ”Marriott Commitment to Clean” was actually a Commitment to Ignore. Not only were their stains on the carpet and dust and dirt in the windowsills, I found a previous guest's room keys sitting on the counter. Obviously, the room was just ”re-set” and not inspected or cleaned at all. I guess the promised sanitizing was out of the question. We then went to get some ice and noticed that the ice bucket was half filled with standing water. It was disgusting! Thats not the worst part, I then found a pair of women's ”play-style” lingerie slightly soiled sitting on the floor by the sofa. I mentioned the cleanliness issues to the Front Desk, but the representative simply stared at me and then asked if there was anything else I needed? I should have been a bit more insistent that they take it down, but I was so shocked I did not. The room setup, although smaller than what I wanted and pre-confirmed, was also not great. There is no storage at all other than the closet. There are no drawers at all or other places to keep clothes or anything else. If you have two suitcases, you are going to have to keep them out as there is no place to put them in the closet. Other than the Front Desk and Room Condition, we had a nice stay, although the Room is really what we paid for. The rest of the staff we interacted with were friendly and helpful. The breakfast staff were great, and the food was amazing! Kudos for them for sure! Actually, the only place I was every recognized or thanked for being a Marriott Elite was from the hostess at Breakfast. The bellhop was also quite nice and helpful when we checked-out and needed to store lugga

Kimpton Alton Hotel, an IHG Hotel
4.5/545 Reviews
Fisherman's Wharf
We only stayed one night but it was ideal for catching the hop on hop off bus and walking along the piers at Fisherman's Wharf. There was no breakfast served, as there were renovations going on but we found a great cafe nearby which served a great breakfast. We also found a lovely seafood restaurant for our dinner. I thought that it was very expensive for the facilities on offer but we booked it on the advice of our travel agent who had also stayed there and advised that the price was average for an American hotel near to Fisherman's Wharf.
Stanford Court Hotel
4.6/5134 Reviews
San Francisco Downtown
Lovely hotel, in a great location, good access for the city, comfortable with great communal spaces. The staff are all really friendly and helpful, 2 people of note to mention The guy behind the bar is brilliant, knowledgable, friendly and funny, a real pleasure. There is a (really) young lady on reception/check-in, she is lovely and I don't want to knock her, but she needs more training, her default is to say no to everything, not because she is being difficult, I just don't think she has the knowledge or authority to find solutions. It makes it frustrating for me as the customer and I'm sure, for her, trying to deal with people and not resolving issues. It makes you avoid her and wait for someone else to deal with. The Concierge and Valet Parking staff were brilliant, took away all the thinking on parking and restaurants etc. We would definitely stay here again if in San Fransisco

Stayed for two nights, it's okay. I can't ask too much. I'm bringing my own toiletries. Most hotels don't provide mineral water. No, it's better in the location and free parking.
Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Fisherman's Wharf, an IHG Hotel

Excellent value for a great location. Room was clean and very spacious. Front desk were accommodating and helpful with a quick check-in and check-out. Breakfast had a good selection of different options and had no complaints. Overall would happily rebook and stay here again!
The Wharf Inn
3.7/5105 Reviews
Fisherman's Wharf
Reserved here for 10 days July 26 2022. We thought the place might be OK at ~$200/night. There were remarkable problems. 1) ”Free” parking meant, ”don't use your car or you may come back to a full lot”. 2) There were NO drawers. I am serious. nothing under the TV, no side tables, and nothing in the closet. I have never stayed in a place with no drawers! 3) Did I say no side tables? There were little wooden ”flappers” nailed into the bedstead on each side maybe to place a drink. And one of them was cracked so we had to use a suitcase as a night stand. 4) Three hangers in the closet, and the closet door alternated as a bathroom door depending on your needs. So this place is right on the wharf, location-location, but it sucks. We managed to get out of our reserves for only one extra night penalty and move several blocks away to a Travelodge (Lombard St) which was the same price with none of these problems. Please stay away from the Wharf Inn and enjoy your stay.
Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

Fisherman's Wharf
This store is very cost-effective. It's in a good location opposite Pier 39. The service staff are also quite friendly. The only regret is that the indoor air conditioner is loud. It's best to choose a season when you don't need to turn on the air conditioner.

More about San Francisco

San Francisco: A Fusion of Culture and Innovation

Perched on the tip of a peninsula in the U.S. state of California, San Francisco is a vibrant city celebrated for its iconic landmarks, diverse neighborhoods, and innovative spirit. Did you know that San Francisco is the birthplace of the United Nations and the Fortune Cookie? The city's multi-faceted history and vibrant ambiance make it a must-visit destination.

Journey to San Francisco

San Francisco International Airport serves as the main gateway for international visitors. Various transportation modes, including taxis, shuttles, and the BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit), connect the airport to the city. Visa requirements depend on your nationality, so it's crucial to check ahead.

The official currency is the U.S. Dollar, and credit cards are widely accepted. English is the main language, but San Francisco's diversity means you'll hear a myriad of languages. An interesting tradition in the city is the "Sunday's Streets" events where neighborhoods transform into car-free spaces for community activities.

Iconic Attractions in San Francisco

The Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, and Fisherman's Wharf are quintessential San Francisco sights. Explore the culturally-rich Chinatown, or wander around the colorful Victorian homes in Haight-Ashbury. Art enthusiasts should visit the Museum of Modern Art, while nature lovers can relax in Golden Gate Park.

San Francisco's Climate and the Ideal Time to Visit

San Francisco experiences a Mediterranean climate with cool, damp winters and dry summers. The city is known for its microclimates, so temperatures can vary across neighborhoods. Typical summer temperatures range between 57°F (14°C) and 70°F (21°C). The best time to visit is from September to November. Carry layers, as San Francisco's famous fog can cause sudden temperature drops.
