The hotel

Everything at the W is bright, smart and vibrant, from the artwork on the walls to your guest room, with its Munchie Box and a cosy window bench. Make sure you order a cocktail at The Living Room, a stylish hangout packed with geometric shapes and colour-changing lighting. Pick your night — there are DJs some nights, and board games on others. And for a tasty Californian dinner, head to TRACE with its organic food from local fishermen and farmers.

Just stayed here for one night and I definitely will be returning soon! The property is immaculate and the staff is amazing. From checking in to suggestions for what to do, I couldn’t have asked for more. Both Santiago and Kyle were phenomenal they definitely made my stay memorable. Thank you for the best night in San Francisco!

I stayed at the W for 14 nights as I moved into my new apartment. The staff are incredibly friendly, helpful, and respectful. I was impressed by the COVID measures, especially around contactless check-in and gym reservations. The room itself that I stayed in was also so lovely: the "Mega Corner, Larger Guest room" with 1 king size bed. I… Read more
I stayed at the W for 14 nights as I moved into my new apartment. The staff are incredibly friendly, helpful, and respectful. I was impressed by the COVID measures, especially around contactless check-in and gym reservations. The room itself that I stayed in was also so lovely: the "Mega Corner, Larger Guest room" with 1 king size bed. I especially loved the city view! The one small piece of feedback I have for the team is that not having dinner service was pretty difficult and unexpected; since I had a 50 dollar meal coupon, I was hoping to use it for evening meals. Would have appreciated a heads-up via email for this caveat. Otherwise, a great stay overall and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in the SoMA area! Read less

Beautiful hotel in downtown SF close to the conference center. The hotel has very limited amenities as space is a premium in SF but the rooms are very nice and clean. Early check in is impossible here so I would not count on it. Would stay again!
