Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 11 Nov 2010 rated 8 out of 10.

Average.

Positives: Location, outside area with fire, somewhat of view of water.

Negatives: Room was run down, hole in wall by door, etc.


Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 03 Oct 2010 rated 5 out of 10.

This hotel is greatly overpriced for a property with the Radisson name plate. The hotel is very tired even with the updated furnishings, and sleep number beds.

Positives: The location was convenient.

Negatives: No dining option.


Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 21 Sep 2010 rated 8 out of 10.

We were overall very happy with the hotel. The staff was helpful. We didn't like the fact that we had to pay for parking at our own hotel.

Positives: It was clean and located close to attractions.

Negatives: The rooms are quite small.


Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 24 May 2010 rated 8 out of 10.

A good, moderately priced hotel in a very convenient location to Fisherman's Wharf and local attractions. A bit noisy at times as it appears to cater to tour groups of all ages, but staff as helpful and friendly. A good experience overall.

Positives: Convenient location to Fisherman's Wharf and many attractions.

Negatives: Room a bit plain and not decorated particularly attractive.


Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 21 May 2010 rated 7 out of 10.

Great hotel. Can easily walk to Wharf and Pier 39 with kids. Since all parking in the area costs extra $39-45 a day it made it an expensive weekend.

Positives: Great location in Wharf area.

Negatives: No parking. Had to pay $45 a day to keep it on site. All parking costs a lot.


Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 26 Jan 2010 rated 8 out of 10.

I can't say enough about the helpfulness of the front desk. A very delightful person. Aside from the room being to small it was a pleasant stay but would not want to stay more than one night.

Positives: The bed was wonderful.

Negatives: The room was too small.


Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 15 Oct 2009 rated 10 out of 10.

Everything was very nice.

Positives: The beds were comfortable, and the comforters were clean.

Negatives: There wasn't anything that I didn't like.


Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 16 Sep 2009 rated 10 out of 10.

Very comfortable with a great location. Loved the beds and pillows. Clean with good service. We were very happy with our stay here.

Positives: Great location and good beds and pillows.

Negatives: Not a lot of selections for cable TV.


Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 19 Aug 2009 rated 8 out of 10.

Good value.

Positives: Great location, staff was friendly and concierge was helpful.

Negatives: The pool chairs were falling apart.


Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 23 Mar 2009 rated 8 out of 10.

It's a convenient, fairly clean, reasonably comfortable tourist hotel. The charge for parking seems excessive, but it also seems to be the norm in San Francisco. The hotel provides a great location and fairly comfortable rooms. An honor bar or at least a fridge in the room wouldn't hurt.

Positives: Very good location; it's central to everything, including ferry service to Oakland/Alameda.

Negatives: There was quite a bit of street noise and the room's furnishings were somewhat worn; there was even a little lipstick on a sheer curtain. Go figure.


Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 26 Nov 2008 rated 8 out of 10.

Good location in Fisherman's Wharf. We were there only to sleep so we did not use any of the hotel's facilities.

Positives: Location.

Negatives: Parking fees.


Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 09 Nov 2008 rated 9 out of 10.

This hotel is a nice midrange hotel. The staff was helpful and the bed is a sleep number style, very comfortable.

Positives: Good location for tourists activities.

Negatives: No in house restaurant.


Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 24 Sep 2008 rated 9 out of 10.

I was pleasantly surprised at the great location. I've stayed at Fisherman's Wharf before, but this was by far the best location for everything.

Positives: Great location.

Negatives: Nothing.


Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 05 Aug 2008 rated 9 out of 10.

Positives: I really liked this hotel because it is centrally located to all the places we like to visit.

Negatives: There was nothing that I disliked about this hotel.

Hotel couldn't be in a better proximity to Fisherman's Wharf and Pier 39. If those are your intended sites it's terrific. Room was clean and presentable. Partial bay view was exactly that and overall not bad. Desk manager was rude from the second I walked in the door. On departure day I asked for a late checkout (one extra hour) and again with the attitude. I'd recommend staying there, past dealing with the desk manager.

Positives: Couldn't be more convenient to Fisherman's Wharf.

Negatives: Desk manager would have to improve to be unfriendly.

It was the perfect place to stay if you want to visit the tourist attractions at Fisherman's Wharf. You are walking distance to everything. Parking was a little expensive, but you can come and go as much as you need to.

Positives: Location, it was right in the center of everything we wanted to do.

Negatives: Not much curb appeal. Expensive parking.

The staff were friendly. They gave us a free upgrade to a room with a balcony that had a partial view of the bay. Great for coffee in the morning air! The room was average, but the beds were sleep comfort, so you could choose the comfort setting. That was good! Fisherman's Wharf was just behind the hotel, good access. Johnny Rockets and IHOP restaurants next to hotel. The only negative part was the $35.00 parking fee. However, the parking time was good until 7 p.m. the next day.

Positives: Direct access to the tourist area.

Negatives: They had parking, but it cost $ 35.00 extra.

The hotel was ok I wouldn't class it as a 3 star, it was ok, the cleaning staff was allot more friendly than the lobby assistants.

Positives: Easy access to most attractions.

Negatives: Parking, very high it should be included.

It is in a great location. Many shops and attractions are within walking distance. The sink was dripping water the first night, but the problem was resolved without us having to contact anyone.

Positives: Location, easy check-in and check-out, helpful front desk.

Negatives: Expensive parking, long walk from parking lot to room, room was a little small.

The room was a bit run down. And I too found a hair in the bathroom (on the handle of the faucet in the sink). Other than, it was a pretty average hotel stay. Nothing awful, nothing fantastic. We had a bit of a view of the bay, but mostly a view of a parking lot/garage. Checking was easy and the gentleman that waited on us was very pleasant. The hotel is conveniently located, that was the big draw. Nights were quite. Didn't care too much for the sleep number bed, but to each his own.

Positives: Location.

Negatives: Sleep number bed.

When we arrived at the hotel our two rooms were not ready so one of our groups ended up on one floor and the other group ended up on another floor. They could not accommodate us on having two beds in the room even though they said they could. (I called in advance to make sure) So they offered the roll a way in place of a second bed and then charged me for it. Did not like this hotel and would not stay here again.

Positives: I liked the location of the hotel the best.

Negatives: I did not like the hotel's policy on booking rooms.

The only thing this hotel has going for it is the location. Very unhappy with inability to connect to internet despite "booster" pack provided to us. Had to call 2x for toilet service and still not fixed by the time we left.

Positives: Location was excellent.

Negatives: No internet access, toilet not in working order, customer service was lacking.
