Top Polk Gulch Hotel Reviews

Hilton San Francisco Airport Bayfront

8/10 Good

"Wonderful breakfast- a little pricey but more unique than the standard waffle and toast faire as it had Asian elements. Can’t beat the proximity to the airport and the convenient complementary airport shuttle"

Grand Hyatt San Francisco

8/10 Good

"Room was clean, staff friendly. Good location from a walking and driving perspective (parking close by) - lots of retail around Union Square, restaurants and bars within 10-12 min walk. Solid option for a reasonable price given the locale and average nightly rates in the area at other chain hotels."
