Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here for 3 nights. Enjoyed the excellent breakfast (at times the line can seem long) the outdoor fire stations (HH drinks), the close walk to the water and Fisherman's Wharf, quiet room. Would stay here again, wished we could have gotten adjoining rooms."

Holiday Inn Golden Gateway by IHG

"This is the second stay at the Hotel! We booked both stays thru Expedia and were very pleased with ease and value! As for the hotel both stays were perfect, easy fast check-in and were able to request rooms that were on higher floor for views! Staff were attentive and very helpful! Can’t say a negative thing about the hotel! It was also centrally located for our stays! Spoke with the manager to give him our thanks! Will definitely stay again! Thank you!"
