The hotel

After a multi million dollar renovation, the Zephyr has been transformed into a modern, quirky hotel with a nautical theme and laidback vibe. In the heart of Fisherman’s Wharf, you can walk to PIER 39 and Ghirardelli Square (did someone say chocolate?) or jump on a cable car to explore further. Hidden at the back of the hotel is Socialite, a casual restaurant with a sociable atmosphere. There are lots of dining options close by too — grab a clam chowder bread bowl or head to Chinatown for delicious dim sum. When you're done sightseeing for the day, your hotel room offers a welcome oasis from a city that seemingly never sleeps!

Beware of hidden fees. I stayed at the Zephyr a few years back so I know the Hotel. I booked another stay in August 2025 through Expedia. I got an email from Hotel night before informing me of an extra $75 per day and $ 30 per day. I tried calling Hotel, no answer.

Beware of hidden fees. I stayed at the Zephyr a few years back so I know the Hotel. I booked another stay in August 2025 through Expedia. I got an email from Hotel night before informing me of an extra $75 per day and $ 30 per day. I tried calling Hotel, no answer. I called Expedia and the customer service representative of Expedia said, Zephyr Hotel did not answer call. Expedia representative explained to me that the $75 is for a fire pit!! The $30 is for internet. I have internet on my phone and most hotels have free internet. I tried to cancel but no one answered phone at Zephyr Hotel. I never went to Hotel because I was not going to pay another $105.00 per night. There is many more Hotels in San Francisco who do not have hidden fees and answer phone calls. Read less

Nice and clean hotel located in the perfect spot for tourists. Walking distance for a lot of the touristy sites. Friendly and welcoming staff. The family facilities including, microwave in the room, the shared games room in the lobby and the relaxing areas in the back were just a godsend. Perfect way to end the evenings after spending the day… Read more

A very nice and fancy hotel located right at Fisherman’s Wharf. Nice and clean rooms. The sitting areas outside and inside are really nice as well. Everything was to our full satisfaction. Only the parking fee of $ 64 per days is really too high.

Great room, beds, cleanliness, bathrooms, location, check-in. Really happy with our room and the hotel. Skip the restaurants linked to the hotel - they’re not actually part of the hotel and food is average. Walk to Hollywood Cafe for breakfast if you can stretch to that.
