Top College Terrace Hotel Reviews

Crowne Plaza San Francisco Airport by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay. Room was clean and comfortable! The pool, although quite accessible and safe, I didn’t think the pool and the area was as clean as it could have been. I will definitely stay here again on my next business trip."

The Dylan at SFO

10/10 Excellent

"I arrived pretty late after dealing with flight delays, but the staff was so friendly and welcoming that it really turned my night around. After a long day of traveling, it was such a nice way to end the day. The bed was super comfortable, and I got a great night’s sleep. Really appreciated the warm hospitality and would definitely stay here again!"

Grand Hyatt at SFO

8/10 Good

"The location was great, so convenient. Very clean, very comfortable bed and amazing pillows. Friendly staff. My only let down was that they had no shower facility after check out. My flight wasn't until 9pm, so i got an Uber to the San Francisco Zoo for the day and left my bags at the hotel. A shower before my flight would have been lovely. Overall a good experience. It made my layover very relaxing. I would stay again."

DoubleTree by Hilton San Francisco Airport

8/10 Good

"This was an average stay. The property was clean & they offered amenities (I didn’t use many as I only stayed a weekend but I noticed what was available!) Warning that you have to pay $35 a night for parking and for some reason they don’t provide shower caps in the room????? I had to work really hard to get basic things and some of the staff seemed annoyed that I had simple questions like where is the ice machine smh but otherwise it was an average, okay stay."
