The hotel

It’s said that life in San Francisco is best lived on the waterfront. Where better to sample it than at Hotel Zoe, a stroll from Pier 39 and the bay. Wander out and you’ll stumble upon many fabulous shops and eateries, or pop into the hotel’s Italian trattoria for homemade crab ravioli or roasted sea bass. They serve a delicious breakfast too - why not grab a table on the sidewalk and watch as Mason Street comes to life?

Stayed for 3 nights at the beginning of our fly drive holiday from the UK. I changed from the original hotel selected in Union Square as I was concerned about safety at night. Very glad I did. This hotel is very well located for the wharf, bus tours, bicycle hire, Pier 39 and of course the famous Boudin bakery. It's a safe area. We had a very friendly greeting upon arrival. The staff are very nice. The room was spacious and clean. There is coffee provided every morning in reception which is a nice touch (and its nice!). There are plenty of chairs here for a relaxing sit. We didn't eat here but its close to a number of breakfast cafes, most notably the Holywood Cafe. The bar/restaurant has a nice relaxing vibe and the small terrace with 2 or 3 fire pits is a nice touch. We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated the daily maid service. Read less

I booked hotel zoe for my partners 50th. I contacted them a few times before arrival to arrange birthday celebrations as a surprise. Sadly I didnt hear back anything regarding my requests. On arrival they were helpful with an upgrade of my room and i requested the whole cost to go onto my credit card not my partners as we used this to simple hold the room through booking.com. Sadly they only rebooted for 3 days and not 4 so on the 4th day we couldn't get into our room. This issue was resolved with what id say a quite rude receptionist and they had to take another deposit to book the room. On return from our holiday and checking our holiday spending on both credit cards we noticed that the hotel had taken payments from both credit cards. I tried contacting the hotel via their complaints contact page and email and again had no reply. I next went through booking.com who told me I'd get the refund within 7 to 10 working days with an email to confirm after sending copies of both CC. 6 weeks later I am still waiting a refund and booking.com keeping cutting me off mid conversation. I've tried contacting Hotel Zoe again, but not response. Terrible customer service by both parties. Will now have to take the complaint further to a third party. Read less
