Riu Plaza Fishermans Wharf | San Francisco, California | Virgin Atlantic Holidays

San Francisco, California

4 stars

Just a pleasant stroll from the shops and entertainment at Pier 39, and the ferry to Alcatraz, the Riu Plaza Fisherman’s Wharf makes a stellar base to explore from. The hotel’s relaxed and friendly vibe is ideal after a day’s dim sum dining, cable car riding and selfie snapping. Your room is suitably airy and comfortable, you can kick back on the sun terrace by the outdoor heated pool, and, perhaps our favourite part, you can hangout by a crackling fire pit in the outdoor living area.

“Exceeded Expectations”

Nov 12, 2025Flyer427837

From the location, drive-up drop-off area, nicely designed contemporary lobby to the exceptional continental breakfast being included we were pleasantly surprised by it all! Very impressive all the way around. The room itself was nice and the bed was amazingly comfortable! The one area inside the room that was the outdated bathtub, old tiled wall and popcorn ceiling. Don't get me wrong it was nice and clean, but it could use a little refresh. We would stay there again, no problem. The last thing I would recommend is to stretch and tighten the rug in front of the elevator doors. That immediately makes the feel of the place seem dated. Again, not an issue for us, but something to consider.

“Pleasant Stay, but Safety Concerns”

Nov 10, 2025Michael G

The stay was pleasant overall — clean rooms, friendly staff, and a great location near Fisherman’s Wharf. The included breakfast was a nice perk. However, the area felt unsafe at times. We were verbally harassed by a homeless individual outside the hotel, and later saw the same person confronting other guests near the fire pits. The TV setup felt outdated with limited channels, and the bathtub could use renovation, but otherwise the room was comfortable. Good hotel staff and amenities, just be mindful of the surrounding area.
