This hotel is great! We wanted something close to the Fishermans Warf - and close to the Giants Ball Park (we were going to a game). We come to San Fran all the time - so we know the area well. This was a great experience. You can walk to Fisherman's Warf....takes about five minutes....and there is so much to do all around you. Great location....rooms were very nice....staff great and just a $10 cab ride to Union Square.....or you can take the trolly.

Reccomend....no worries.

Stayed in the Marriott last year and loved it.
After a 13 hour flight from Heathrow in to San Francisco, check in was a breeze and our room was ready straight away.
Hotel was very clean, and we encountered no problems during our stay (14 nights).
We found this to be a great base to explore Fishermans Wharf and San Francisco in general.
Staff were extremely helpful. We found the concierge to be particularly nice, he suggested great restaurants, and pretty much arranged our car-rental for us, when we mentioned that we were interested in hiring a car for a few days.
The only fault was the price of eating in the hotel. We had breakfast in the hotel the first morning and were charged in excess of $30 for 2 omletettes for some juice etc. That was the last time we ate there, favouring the Denny's or I-Hop in Fishermans Wharf for breakfast from there on.
All in all, a great stay in the San Francisco. Truly fell in love with the city!
Would recomend the Marriott in a heartbeat!

We arrived around 12 noon. Though check in wasn't until 3 pm or so, there was no issue with early check in. The staff was courteous and friendly. The room was nice though a bit small. The beds were comfortable. The location couldn't be better- close enough to walk to fishermans wharf, far enough to be away from the noise. One incident: The electricty went off one evening while three of us were trying to get ready to go out. I contacted the desk person. It took a long time for them to answer and when she did, she was completely frazzled with no explanation. It was off for about an hour or longer then came back on. I am still unsure of what occurred.

One more important detail: Parking is STEEP at the hotel @ $40 per night. However, it is difficult to park on the streets and alternate side street parking daily is enforced. If you have time to mess with it, it will save you some $.

There is a great little bar down on Fishermans Wharf called Lou's Restaurant & Blues Bar-- ask for Vince, great bartender. They also have a CD they are selling that is Awesome!

Terrific hotel, spacious and very clean rooms, Very polite staff,and only a short walk to Fishermans Wharf.
Front rooms tend to be a little noisy, but would highly recommend, and would stay here again.
