We loved our stay. The hotel is clean and bright and comfortable. Breakfast buffet was amazing! It is situated an easy walk away from Fishermans Warf and the Pier. Travelling with kids, this made it easy. Parking is a bit expensive, but there are off site lots close by to choose from if preferred. Highly recommend!

This is my husband's and my go to hotel in San Francisco. The room are very large and the recent renovation is calm, modernist, and sophisticated, referencing, e.g., the work of artist Ruth Asawa and Eileen Gray. Lots of hot water, helpful lights and plugs in the room. Plus we can walk to plenty of restaurants, shopping and the Embarcadero. Enjoy!
