We stayed here New Years Eve 2013. The hotel is standard for the Hyatt chain (maybe a bit smaller) and conveniently located within walking distance from the Embarcadero, Golden Gate park, Ghiradelli square. We saw "Beach Blanket Babylon", ate sushi and walked around the Embarcadero to watch fireworks. The rooms are cute, clean and chic. Breakfast buffet is more then ample and the service was very friendly. Parking is expensive, but no more expensive than the rest of the area, so expect to pay $50 or more a night at a SF hotel. The Embarcadero is filled with tourist and seafood shops (boiled crabs are delicious), but fun to check out and then head down to the Golden Gate park, which is beautiful and undeveloped.

My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights and enjoyed our stay. The room was very comfortable, clean and well equipped. The pool was nice but the pool area was a little blah. My only complaint was the cost of the on site valet only parking compared to other lots in the area. Overall, I'd stay here again without hesitation.

Excellent location, easy on and off the trolley and getting around. We loved our room! I asked for a quiet room and received a room facing in to a courtyard which eliminated most of the city noise but once you walked out the front door, you were within a block of fisherman's wharf.
The weather was exceptionally cool and the staff put out hot drinks every day. The staff was extremely helpful in finding things and giving hints on what to see and do.

Excellent hotel for location and business meeting space. Beautifully remodeled recently, first class location and quality. Only negative is parking is expensive. Excellent fitness center, outdoor pool and spa.
