Top Princeton Hotel Reviews

Grand Hyatt at SFO

10/10 Excellent

"Easy access from terminal via a train."

Hyatt Regency San Francisco Airport

8/10 Good

"The property is fantastic. There are just 2 minor complaints- The room AC does not get cold- it stays quite warm. I stayed multiple nights in different rooms throughout the week and none of them ever felt cool enough. Also there were inconsistencies with the water temperature in the shower from room to room"

DoubleTree by Hilton San Francisco South Airport Blvd

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel but room for imporvement. The hotel is about a 20-30 mins drive from San Francisco & less than 15 mins from the airport. They also have a shuttle & nearby access to the train to San Fran. Parking overnight is an additional fee $19. I liked how clean the hotel was & even though staff were helpful, I had a couple instances when I did not recieve assistance within an hour of asking. I was told I would recieve turndown service for all nights of my stay, but didn't recieve it until I asked mutiple times. The door to our room also wouldn't close properly & it looked like it was pried open at some point. All & all. Not bad experience, just needs some more communication"
