Great location!
Extremely clean!
Little bit out-of-date ....

We stayed for 3 nights for the PGA Presidents Cup at the Grand Hyatt. We were very happy with the hotel and especially liked the location. We did not have a car and were able to ride the BART from the airport and walk the short way to the hotel. We were also able to easily catch a cab from the hotel if we wanted to, but we also walked to the wharf. We had a good dinner at the Grand Views restaurant with a beatiful sunset to go with it. We had a great time watching Fleet week airshows, touring on the segways and biking the Golden Gate bridge. (we opted for the electric bikes-only way to go). The weather was great part of the time and freezing the rest of the time-darn it. It was a great weekend and alot of fun at the golf tourney on Sunday. We will definately go back to SF and we will probably stay at the Grand Hyatt again next time.

Just my thoughts: The hotel was ok, not too great for being a Hyatt.

-Valet parking is $50 overnight, and you have to wait for max 1/2 hour for your car to arrive.
-The bar on the 36th floor closes at 1 pm, but stops serving food at 12.
-There isnt a fan in the bathroom so the mirrors steam up
on the other hand...
-there was hot water
-the beds were really comfy
-prime spot..peferct for walking everywhere

Other than that it was ok, your not really in the hotel too much so I can't complain. I just thought it would be better since its a Hyatt...

We've stayed at the Grand Hyatt 5 or 6 times, the most recent over Labor Day weekend. We are local, but when we go to the City and stay at the Hyatt it's like we are a thousand miles away. As many posters have said, the location is perfect right in Union Square, close to all shops and many great restaurants. The hotel itself is very nice and we generally stay on the club level which gives us access to their private lounge. Very nice for breakfast and snacks. The view from the lounge is also awesome!

Rooms are small and yes, a little dated, but I’ve always found them clean and comfortable. I've never had an issue with noise either from the hallway or other rooms. Rates for hotel can be all over the place. Sometimes I look and they are well over $300, other times in the mid to high $100's. I feel extremely comfortable recommending at a rate of $199 or even as high as $249. Over that, I'd say you may want to look elsewhere. Finally, parking is expensive (I think $49) but you can park in the lot directly across the street (Sutter & Stockton garage) for much less.
