“Good location but in need of a facelift”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 21, 2012

I stayed here for 3 nights while visiting San Francisco for vacation. It was a fantastic location close to the Wharf where there were tons of touristy things to do. It was a short ride to Union Square and there was close access to double decker tour buses and cable cars. The rooms themselves were in need of an upgrade and were quite old looking, not the typical Hilton standard, but clean. You were definitely paying for location. The staff was very friendly and helpful but there was nothing memorable about this hotel so I probably wouldn't stay again.

“Basic hotel, great location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 19, 2012

There is nothing particularly special about this Hilton. It was comfortable and clean, and in a great location for walking around the Fisherman's Wharf area. It might need decorative updating soon. There was a little interior noise late at night from an adjoining room, voices probably from a TV, so we left the ventilating fan running but that was also too noisy. The bathroom was a good size, but its door blocked the entrance to the closet. It always bugs me when I find a coffeemaker in the bathroom, but in this hotel it had its own little table outside the bathroom, so I appreciated that small touch. Breakfast was standard fare in the buffet.

“Nice Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2012

We stayed at the Hilton for two nights prior to a cruise, we didn't get a hello or what can we do fo you when we first arrived but the staff were very nice. Our room was hugh, not much of a view but you can't expect too much with a hotel that only has three or four floors. We had a dental emergency and the concierge could not have done enough to get us all sorted with a dentist appointment at a really nice dentist. The breakfast wasn't that nice but they did try and most of the staff in the restaurant were very friendly. Hotel is located within walking distance to Fishermans Wharf and only a block from a tram stop that takes you into town. A big thank you to the concierge who sorted me with a dentist appointment our cruise would have been a lot different with a sore mouth!

“comfortable and close to most attractions”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 14, 2012

We stayed in this hotel for 4 nights. It is very clean and comfortable. The beds were good and the hotel was clean, the manager and the staff were very helpful and friendly. They even had umbrellas to lend during raining days. The Wi-Fi in the rooms is weak, but you can use the downstairs lounge filled with small tables and chairs, great for homework doing. Since our kids have to make work for school. Free coffee, tea, and hot chocolate is offered in the lounge. The hotel is only 2 blocks from Pier 40, a short walk to Little Italy and Chinatown. We had to rent a car for the weekend and Budget was just a block away. There is Ross a block away for all the forgotten to pack items. In all was worth the price for so many conveniences.

Room Tip: The windows must have good seals. I don't remember being noisy at night, or maybe I was too tir...

We truly appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your recent four-night stay with us. Though it's unfortunate to learn that it rained while you were visiting, we're glad that our staff could provide you and your family with umbrellas before you explored the area! As you mentioned, we're just steps away from Little Italy, Chinatown and Fisherman’s Wharf, which are all intriguing attractions to visit while in San Francisco. It's always nice to read when our location works out so well for a guest's stay and we're sincerely grateful that you've shared so much detail in your one review. The next time you are in the area, we hope that we get the pleasure to welcome you back to the Hilton San Francisco Fisherman's Wharf. Thank you.
