The hotel

In the middle of Fisherman's Wharf, you'll find yourself in a great spot, close to PIER 39 and Ghirardelli Square. The famous cable car turnaround is just outside too, so you can easily get to other neighbourhoods. There's a smart, maritime theme throughout the hotel making it a warm, relaxing respite from the city. And an American breakfast will fire you up for the day. Why not head over to the notorious ex-prison Alcatraz, wander around vibrant Chinatown or take a walk down to the Golden Gate Bridge.

The location of the hotel is handy but very noisy with loud constant traffic noise. Breakfast is exactly the same every day. Dry scrambled eggs, sausage and chopped plain potatoes. Nothing else hot and it never changes. The worst part is there is not even close to being enough tables. People sit on benches in the lobby and computer desks and in… Read more
The location of the hotel is handy but very noisy with loud constant traffic noise. Breakfast is exactly the same every day. Dry scrambled eggs, sausage and chopped plain potatoes. Nothing else hot and it never changes. The worst part is there is not even close to being enough tables. People sit on benches in the lobby and computer desks and in an untidy conference room next to the elevator. The rooms are ok, bed ok but the shower is awful. Spent 4 nights here in July 25, never again. Read less

Front desk staff is extremely friendly and helpful. All people we spoke to were very polite and knowledgeable even very late at night. The room was clean and location convenient to walk to the sites. Coffee was better than we expected and our kids loved the pancake maker. It was busy, but we always found a table and enjoyed a basic breakfast each morning. We wish there was a bar or place to have a drink close by at the end of the day, but overall we are very happy with the price and value of this hotel. Read less

Great location, within easy walking distance of Pier 39, Alcatraz ferry and a lot of San Fran sights. Nice, clean and fresh rooms and having breakfast included for our family of five saved some money! Helpful and friendly staff on reception.
