FAQs about hotels in San Francisco









An Icon of Liberalism

Home to one of America’s icons – the Golden Gate Bridge – San Francisco is a liberal city where life is very much for the living.

Surrounded on 3 sides by water, it is spread over steep hills that make for great photo opportunities. None better than the zig-zag Lombard Street seen in many a film. Other movie stars are the streetcars plying the hill climbs – a little touristy, but still worth trying.

In the middle of the bay is Alcatraz island, famed for the notorious criminals once imprisoned there. Even if you don’t fancy going inside, the views towards the bridge and city are unparalleled.

Nowhere in San Francisco is life more laidback than on the Pacific beaches. Hire a bike and head out there via the huge Golden Gate Park, before returning to sample some fresh seafood at Fisherman’s Wharf. The clam chowder served in (yes, actually in!) bread is a delight. Chinatown also has a great selection of good value restaurants.

As you fly into San Francisco Airport, look out for the exclusive homes lining the Bay Area. Whether you want to stay in apartments along those lines, luxury San Francisco hotels or cheap hostels, Booking.com has something to suit. Be careful though – you might just leave your heart here.

    A lovely city, San Francisco has the lot!

    A lovely city, San Francisco has the lot! It's always sad to see the homelessness and rampant drug addiction in the Tenderloin and right down to Market St in some places. In most cases you are left alone, however travelling as a single female I can imagine it's intimidating. Try to avoid that area, everywhere else seems fine and safe as any big city. If you have a spare day for touristic activities highly recommend the SF Bay ferry system - can use them to get to the USS Hornet Aircraft Carrier Museum! Neat!!

    Loved San Fran, have to admit was a bit apprehensive having read some of the comments and social media however we felt safe at all times. We stayed in Fisherman's Wharf, frequented pier 39 several times, rode the railcar, enjoyed the night life and walked through China Town. Also took the ferry to Alcatraz which was enjoyable. Look there are homeless people around, but that's true now in nearly every major city. We didn't visit the city extensively but the 3 days we were there and the places we visited were very enjoyable. Thought the driverless cab was hilarious. People-friendly, prices-usual city surcharge, weather in march-bright and dry. Fab hotdogs from the stalls along the Wharf. Lots more we could have done so plenty to fill a 4/5 day trip.

    Hayes Valley is a fun, beautiful area in San Francisco.

    Hayes Valley is a fun, beautiful area in San Francisco. It’s a great area to stay to visit SF Jazz, SF Opera, the Asian Art Museum and so much more. The restaurants and shopping are varied and often pretty memorable, making you want to return. Walking around the neighborhood, you’ll find a few nice parks full of people just enjoying their day.

    We drove and left our rental in the underground parking at the hotel it was expensive to park but the Riu Fisherman’s Wharf was a very nice hotel with a fantastic breakfast buffet included. We pre booked Alcatraz tickets and a boat cruise for the following day both were great and should be booked well in advance. We enjoyed the touristy Fishermans wharf area, food was expensive everywhere. We had a great ride on the hop on hop off bus which took us around town and over the Golden Gate Bridge the bus driver was great and tells you good spots to get off or Not. We then hoped on the historic trolley which took us back to Fishermans Wharf. We spent 3 days in San Francisco which I felt was great. I wouldn’t go walking outside after dark and know where the unsafe areas of the city are.

    You have to know what areas are safe to walk or travel through. We walked and were out at night until 1am, no issues, but one of us knows the area. There are homeless everywhere even near our hotel by the peir, but most are not looking to bother you. Family friendly during daytime.

    This hotel is an old building with a lot of character. The room was quite spacious and had a kitchenette which was very handy with a small fridge and microwave. The bed was very comfortable and the reception area had comfy leather sofas and was a nice place to spend time whilst waiting to go to the airport. The location is good, a short walk to Union Square and there are good bar and restaurant options nearby plus a superette next door.

    If you're ever in SF the mission area is the best! Union hotel is especially 🔥 It's got security close by because of the dance club next door and it's gated. Check out San Francisco ya'll. My Grandmother was right. It's nice! #travel PS: the "Sandwich Place" across the street has the best fucking sandwiches.

    Received free upgrade to an excellent room facing the city with balcony - sound during night wasn't too bad, and during day also sufficiently dampened by glass. Located right off Union Square, easy access to different modes of transportation (e.g., bus/metro/cable car). Just above Tenderloin district (an area which you should avoid), but not noticeable in streets around hotel.

    The location was everything. Located in downtown, close by to the mall, movies, restaurants, and union square. The beds were extremely comfy and the room was very spacious. Room comes with an empty refrigerator which is great, unlike other hotels in SF that have items inside for you to purchase, which leaves no space to put items.
