Top Pacifica Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"I wish there was body wash in the shower but overall great experience!!’ Would highly recommend 😀"

Hilton San Francisco Airport Bayfront

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice for the price."

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about the Handlery was Top Notch: From the staff to the pool, to the room , to the late check-out because it was a birthday celebration, this was the absolute best. Wound highly recommend to any traveler or local who just wanted a staycation. They were friendly and beyond kind. Thank you for a great visit."

Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

8/10 Good

"This is a lovely and extremely well-located hotel with clean and modern rooms. There’s a safe, a great bathroom and a huge closet in the rooms. The staff could have been more friendly to me and I had to pay the 20 dollar charge twice, but overall, I would recommend this hotel - it’s safe, clean, and comfortable"

Stanford Court San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"very nice hotel at a reasonable rate in a great location - big rooms, great beds, free coffee - loved it...."

Parc 55 San Francisco - A Hilton Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was nice. We found makeup on our pillow cases and the staff made it right, right away. The biggest bummer was the fact that the pool was across the street. I think Parc55 could do a better job of educating the guests where it is and how to find it. We loved closing out our days at the bar, but wished that breakfast had more options than the buffet."

Club Quarters Hotel Embarcadero, San Francisco

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel. The room was kind of tight but it worked for my daughter and I. There’s a great coffee place across the street. The hotel has a nice lounge area with chairs and a wonderful coffee machine. The room was very clean. We would come back when we return to SF"

The Pickwick Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience! Will be booking here again"

Hilton San Francisco Union Square

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and nice staff"
