Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

8/10 Good
"Loved having the buffet breakfast, very good. Outdoor fireplaces, nice place to relax after the day. Our door had a gap so did hear a lot of noise at times. Had trouble with key working but was fixed pretty quickly by staff changing the mechanism or battery."

8/10 Good
"Clean room. Good facilities. Location is fine for local transport. Only one close restaurant which is ok. Breakfast very good Didn’t use the pool as jucuzzi not working. The outlook was disappointing as the image of the room shows boats in the marina. This marina is now empty and a bit of an eyesore. Our room wasn’t cleaned one day and we don’t know why"

10/10 Excellent
"Very nice hotel! Right in Union Square. Beds were very hard and pillows kind of sucked. But overall the rooms were nice and very clean. We were on the 29th floor which was a cool view Parking is horrible and because we have a bigger truck they couldn’t valet it and had no idea how to help us and just kind of left us to figure it out, Thankfully we found ONE garage down the street that took bigger vehicles (thanks ChatGPT for finding it)."

Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

10/10 Excellent
"The Chancellor Hotel has a great location on the Powell Street cable car line, half a block from Union Square and four blocks from Market Street. It's an old hotel, built 100 years ago, so the hallways are irregular and the elevator seems ancient. But everything works. The hotel doesn't serve breakfast -- I recommend the croissants at One65 on O'Farrell Street, two blocks away -- but it does serve drinks at night. They also offer cookies, apples, a coffee machine and lemon-infused cold water in the lobby (although a couple of times they were out of the water). They also have a machine in the lobby to fill water bottles. The hotel notes that they don't have air conditioning. That's generally not a problem. The rooms do have ceiling fans that help when it's warm. I'd stay there again."

Coral Reef Inn & Suites

8/10 Good
"Honestly the room was unexpectedly very spacious than the picture. I would say it is convenient that you have somewhere to stay at. Even if it’s just for the night too. If you like fancy this place isn't for you. In my opinion it is worth staying there. The car situation was easy too. Just make sure to lock your doors including the hotel door too. Block it with a chair you never know. Overall everything was good. Nothing bad. We just stayed there for 3 days and 2 nights just for Big Bang which also includes going to sf and sj. So again it’s worth it. It’s not fancy but it isn’t bad either."
