The hotel

Conveniently located at Fisherman's Wharf, this hotel is close to many attractions including PIER 39, Ghirardelli Square and right next to the famous cable car turnaround opening up access to the rest of the city. It is also adjacent to the Holiday Inn Fisherman's Wharf, where you can make use of the pool. A smart, maritime theme throughout creates a warm and relaxing respite from the many things to do in San Francisco. A complimentary full American breakfast will fire you up for sightseeing, as there's plenty to see, including notorious ex-prison Alcatraz, vibrant Chinatown and the Golden Gate Bridge.

We used IHG points. Since it is an Express, the upgraded rooms were only fair. Beware of streetside rooms as very noisy. Easy access to all Wharf attractions. Staff was friendly and helpful. Free breakfast was better than most.

I brought 29 people to San Fran and we stayed at the HIE Fisherman’s wharf and were please. The hotel breakfast, the rooms etc. we’re all great. I had a good experience working with the group reservations in pre-planning. My only negative experience was upon arrival. I was in a rental mini-van with 4 others vans full of people behind me. When we pulled up to the valet - they didn’t have any record of us (and i had called twice earlier that day tho be sure). I was in a bit of a panic as my boss was asking me what the deal was. When i went to the front desk i asked if they were expecting our group and the first response was ‘no’. Within a few minutes the front desk handed me the keys but it was not as smooth (in that regard) as i was hoping. They did have all of the keys labeled with the names of the people in each room and it was all smooth from that point on. Read less

I was very impressed with the free breakfast buffet. Sausage, bacon, pre-made omelettes, oatmeal, cereals, cinnamon rolls, fresh fruit, yogurt and fresh brewed coffee. They even had soy milk!! Very busy, but they opened an extra room for people to sit. Great concierge with good recommendations and maps. Would highly recommend and we would book again if returning! Read less

Pro This hotel had excellent customer service, clean, and great security. There is mandatory valet parking and I personally think it’s the right decision for this location to make sure the parking is safe. This location is walking distance to all the attractions near pier 39. The breakfast is buffet style and offers hot cinnamon rolls and few hot items. We always managed to find a seat. Con: No self laundry facilities. You can walk to a coin operated place. I went really early and it was open around 7am. It’s nice to mix with the locals. Read less
