San Francisco hotellit North Beach

Plussat: The price and what you get for it.

Miinukset: The rooms were too cramped

Plussat: The San Remo is a charming little place that offers all a single traveler needs. (Though two people could stay in a room, depending on how well they like one another). They offered more amenities than I expected, including mouthwash, earplugs, and bath salts (did not use those, though).

Miinukset: It was a little strange to have a window in my room that looked out on the hallway, though it was useful since the room got a bit stuffy with it closed. The mornings were a little loud with everyone waking up and using the bathrooms and showers, even with that window closed (hence the earplugs, I suppose).

Plussat: A little bit of Europe in San Francisco. Very historic and nostalgic. It's not for everyone but it's perfect for people who like to meet strangers on their travels.

Miinukset: The lack of air conditioning...but that's what you expect for such an old building.

Miinukset: We could barely fit in our room because it was so small. We were the first room across from the bathroom and could hear every time someone went pee. Like literally hear them pee. The lightbulb flickered and a curtain blind fell off. The bed was uncomfortable and room was so tiny.

Plussat: Was a little worried about the bathrooms being down the hall. However, this was no problem at all. Had to wait a time or two for a shower, but was extremely pleased with how clean the shared areas were maintained.

Miinukset: Of course, would have preferred our own bathroom.

Plussat: Good location near Fisherman's Warf. Low price. Comfortable bed. Friendly staff. 100 year old hotel. Per other reviews I requested a room with a sink. This allowed me to brush my teeth, shave, and have drinking water without leaving the room. Others had to do so in the hallway shared sink. Imagine what a low rent hotel was like 100 years ago, and you will be fine.

Miinukset: Thin walls, older mattress and bedding and furnishings. Small, but to be expected. Shared bathrooms and showers were not ideal, but not a big deal for a quick one night stay.

Plussat: Walking distance from every thing

Miinukset: not much

Plussat: Clean and very quaint. Friendly staff. The location was great, near the wharf and cruise terminal. Had coffee and tea available near the front desk. Was excellent for the price we paid!

Miinukset: The rooms were very small. Had to put the chair on top of the wardrobe so we could both put our suitcases on the floor.

Plussat: Easy location, checkin, shared bath done quite nice, quiet and clean as a whistle

Plussat: The vintage and historic feel of the hotel. there's an almost communal hostel-like atmosphere to the hotel due to the nature of amenities such as shared bathrooms and washroom. Interior is incredibly beautiful.

Miinukset: Parking was a pain but that's an issue you'll encounter with many places in SF. gotta be careful with noise levels since you can hear things and sound can easily penetrate through walls and windows.

Plussat: I liked the atmosphere, and the fact that for a shared-bathroom facility there were multiple baths and toilets available. I also LOVED the location and the general 'feel' of the place.

Miinukset: the room was just so incredibly TINY! barely had room to move around the bed, which would not have been so bad if there were at least some sort of desk or table to sit at, or a lounge area in the hotel that had a table and chairs (there were several couch-type areas but nothing that could double as a desk). I was travelling for work, and could not really do much at all at the hotel. also this was listed as a double room... I cannot imagine sharing this room with someone else.

Plussat: The hotel offers good value and a good location as well as character. Guests get a discount on the nice restaurant attached to the hotel. Hotel staff were friendly and welcoming.

Miinukset: Rooms fairly small but comfortable

Plussat: the location is amazing, the place is tidy and perfectly clean, we basically loved it!

Miinukset: nothing really

Plussat: The decor and atmosphere was fantastic, i'd definately stop again and encourage others to try a few nights there for its charm and value

Miinukset: Not really a dislike but the rooms were small, i really wanted to checkout the pent house.. maybe next time!

Plussat: This place is bursting at the seams with character. I really enjoyed the vibe, though I'm not quite sure how to characterize it.

Miinukset: I was in a room directly above the restaurant, and it was loud. Pack earplugs. The mattress wasn't super-comfortable, but it was fine.

Plussat: The San Remo is extremely charming and close to Fisherman's Wharf, Little Italy and Chinatown. It's also within walking distance to various tour companies. Although the bathrooms are shared, they were very clean and readily available. I will definately stay there again.

Plussat: Hotelli on idyllinen, pieni ja kodikas. Yhteiskäytössä olevat WC:t ja suihkutilat ovat siistit,

Plussat: Location is perfect.

Miinukset: Small rooms.

Plussat: We liked everything about the hotel.

Miinukset: The only thing that would have added to our experience would have been a large common area or terrace to hang out in.

Plussat: Location is excellent, next to Colombus Avenue, Embarcadero, restaurants. Quiet and clean neighborhood. Hotel is really charming, well restored, which is great if you want to enjoy a 19th century feel.

Miinukset: Restaurant downstairs (excellent by the way) is very noisy for the hotel guests. Lack of privacy if you room has no washbasin.

Plussat: location, cleanliness, staff very helpful

Miinukset: Room 40 could use light control from the hall, very stuffy, better fan ; it was noisy

Plussat: the staff, the location, vintage feel

Miinukset: tiny rooms, soft mattress

Plussat: Good hotel, old but well maintained, very considerate staff.

Miinukset: There is no elevator and you have to climb 2 flights of stairs just to get from the street to the lobby -- not easy if you have heavy luggage. I got there around 8 in the evening and there was no one who could help with the luggage. The ads for this place should more clearly indicate these limitations.

Plussat: Location, check-in process, quaint atmosphere

Miinukset: There is literally zero soundproofing, so it can get very loud, especially if your room is facing the street.

Plussat: Great staff. Accommodations were cozy, unpretentious, and authentic.

Plussat: I loved the decorations in the room. It was adorable.

Miinukset: Everything was great.

Plussat: The location of the hotel and the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. The cleanliness was very good.

Miinukset: Carrying my luggage up the stairs

Plussat: The staff was the best I have ever dealt with at any hotel ever!!! The room was showing its age and felt dirty and needed a thourough cleaning. Great location except the club nextdoor had a band playing until 2am. Close to the city attractions and Fisherman's Wharf.

Miinukset: The bar next door was too loud for relaxing at night.

Plussat: We love the atmosphere and location of the hotel boheme. The room was very romantic and stylish.

Plussat: Ambience

Plussat: The staff were great, it felt very homely and comfortable. We felt very welcome and enjoyed it immensely.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Small size, very European in nature. It reminded us of a place we stayed in Florence. Our room overlooked Columbus street, and we sat at a small table in the bay window taking it all in while observing the sights and sounds of N. Beach and sipping our complimentary sherry.

Plussat: What a disaster this place was. Facilities look nothing like the photographs. The entire operation was ran out of the basement what a complete disappointment

Plussat: Friendly staff. Nice amenities.

Miinukset: Some construction noise at early hours

Plussat: Hotel Zoe was great! Very cute boutique hotel atmosphere. The outside patio with fire pits was so cozy and inviting! The room was a good size and very comfortable. Didn't get a chance to try the restaurant but hope to next time.

Plussat: Looks new, very clean, good location

Miinukset: Beds could have been more comfortable and I didn’t appreciate the extra daily charge and parking per day.

Plussat: Great location! Close to everything...walking distance to most things. Staff was top notch from reception to concierge!

Miinukset: Missed having a little coffee shop for a quick breakfast & coffee...although coffee was free in the lobby daily. Snall room.

Plussat: Great location. The staff was friendly and the dog stayed for free.

Miinukset: 55$ parking, the room was kind of old but they are remodeling currently

Plussat: We loved the friendly staff and how close to everything this hotel was. We were in walking distance of everything we wanted to do. The hotel room was beautiful too, newly renovated and very nice!

Miinukset: All of the addtional fees for parking and "resort fees". Granted we got a deal on the cost of the room, so we're not complaining too much but the actual cost of the rooms are very expensive and then to add over $150 of addtional fees when checking out is a little crazy. But, overall, we would be willing to stay here in the future, if we make it to the west coast again.

Plussat: Loved the location, everything was within walking distance

Miinukset: Valet was a little high priced, worth it considering the location

Plussat: Clean rooms, nice staff, excellent location.

Miinukset: Horrible view. Parking is outrageous.

Plussat: Morning coffee, afternoon wine, dine credit

Miinukset: elevator slow

Plussat: Great location, the bar and lobby area are excellent for relaxing. Free coffee was good in the mornings and refreshing water available in lobby when coming back from walking around Fishermen’s Wharf. Staff was helpful

Miinukset: Parking cost

Plussat: The hotel overall was very nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Lobby was beautiful. Restaurant was delicious.

Miinukset: Our room wasn't cleaned very well. There was hair on the walls in the bathroom. A dog biscuit on the floor and the carpets were dingy and needed a deep cleaning. While it was a nice hotel it was very expensive for the accommodations you received.

Plussat: the bed is amazing and the front desk is helpful and competent

Miinukset: the parking was valet only and the price was $42 a day(its not going to be cheaper anywhere else) but the bellmen were not very friendly and were not happy to repeatedly get the car for me.

Plussat: location-concierge-home-like lobby-inviting-great restaurant

Miinukset: booked king room on line-got there and had a queen-very disappointed-have a queen at home!!

Plussat: Easy to get to places of interest and front desk staff willing and able to help.

Miinukset: Small room

Plussat: Location was good, hotel was available when I needed to be in SF, within walking distance to Wharf, decent on-site restaurant.

Miinukset: Distance from elevators to room.

Plussat: location, close to transport,(excursions); winetasting every day 5-6 in the afternoon where one can meet fellow travellers.

Miinukset: all good

Plussat: Nicely furnished and the lobby area was a pleasant place to sit and chat over coffee or wine. Excellent location and concierge Alan was very helpful

Miinukset: Room was a bit dark but not a major issue

Plussat: Friendly atmosphere and close to waterfront attractions . Evening wine tasting was lovely - can recommend this hotel

Plussat: the location is excellent.

Miinukset: our room was very noisy from staff running up & down the metal stairs, The fire alarm went off twice during our stay waking us up, no apology from staff or managment.

Plussat: Staff was friendly and helpful....nice location close to North Beach and Fishermans Warf.

Miinukset: They did not have an express check-out system. You had to go to the front desk and do it the old fashion way.....not a big deal but you need to plan for it accordingly.

Miinukset: no refrigerator

Plussat: Great location and friendly staff

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: I liked that we were in walking distance of the wharf and North Shore. A few blocks from the congestion of fisherman's wharf gave us some peace and quiet. We were able to sleep with the window's open without the noise from the streets or groups of people invading our space.

Plussat: Super clean New and very spacious rooms

Miinukset: Air scent in lobby TOO strong which appears to be overdone these days in many hotel lobbies

Plussat: The staff was awesome! So attentive and willing to help make our stay better. The concierge called to make sure all of our tour and restaurant plans were taken care of properly. Great job!

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Booked and paid extra for king bed, when we checked in there were none available, so still had to pay extra for 2 queens.

Plussat: The room cleanliness and decor.

Miinukset: Customer service-I had requested a 1 bed and they initially gave me a double. So we had to go change rooms. Then at 6am there's was a fire drill so everyone had to evacuate but the issue is that the staff never offered an apology.

Plussat: I loves the fresh but edgy rooms.

Miinukset: Do the valet parking.

Miinukset: Got to the check in desk and found out there was a hidden fee of $30 for internet and other incidentals. Bait and Switch

Plussat: The service, location and amenities were incredible. Very comfy beds! Everything was perfect, except the shower would clogg a bit. Would definetly recommend

Plussat: Room was very clean and comfortable. Very affordable

Miinukset: Have travel essentials for sale or free. Ex: toothpaste, contact lense solution, toothbrush etc.

Plussat: Clean, renovated, stylish, friendly, with a perfect location. Not a the over priced dirty old hotel usually available for the price in the warf. I did not pick the hotel or we wouldn't have stayed in this area. I was WRONG. They've saved an old hotel from being an awful tourist trap. I was anticipating mushrooms growing on the carpets and paint from the 70's. But it was as clean as a Hampton in or Holiday in express I would usually use during the week for work. Location is at the end of the war so getting in and out of there was easy. It's also at the end of Columbus state getting into little Italy and over to China town were also simple. Again, I did not expect this clean of a room for that close to $200 in this area. Would stay here again if asked to.

Miinukset: Charged for waters. Hotel elevator room card reader. In room AC could have worked better, but it was well enough that we didn't bother to complain. Not enough outlets. Though there are charging stations in the room, only 1 next to the bed and the other shut off when the TV was off. Stairwell doors all need new door closers. Bed looked lumpy but slept fine.

Plussat: Wifi quality is to bad for the value hotel

Miinukset: WIFI, gym facilities

Plussat: The staff was amazing, great location

Plussat: I am always impressed by the cusotmer service at the Hilton.

Plussat: close to all attractions, within walking distance of restaurants. good info from hotel staff, including restaurants

Plussat: Close to all things to do in the Bay area

Plussat: Good location, nice place to stay

Miinukset: Noisy, too soft mattresses, toilet paper like sandpaper

Plussat: Plenty of space in the room.

Miinukset: Slight noise from movements in adjacent rooms

Plussat: Convientlly located, super-comfortable,extremely well-run hotel by competetent, friendly staff.

Plussat: location and quality of services

Plussat: I liked how it was just set back from fishermans wharf so we were the right distance away.

Miinukset: It's not a very soundproof hotel, you can hear whenever people walk past your room inside the hotel.

Plussat: Staff were good and helpful without being in your face all the time.

Miinukset: Breakfast wasn't as good as I'd had in other Hiltons of similar cost

Plussat: The place was gorgeous, clean and spacious

Miinukset: But they were so understaffed. We checked in at 430pm and did not receive our crib for the baby until close to 10pm! We had to call them once to remind and I had to remind them at the counter when I came back from the store. We also added some items for them to bring up like baby shampoo and toothpaste, etc. when housekeeping came up at 930pm, he only brought the small items. I asked about the pack and play and he said they never told him. I assumed he was going to ring our toothpaste and the bedding for the baby, no. They didn't tell him about the toothpaste either!!!!! He had to come back twice!!! It was late and waaaaay past the kids bedtime. Sooooo annoying. The ladies at the counter made it seem like they would take care of everything but they didn't. One of them even asked me about the crib check in. Very disappointed.

Plussat: Location was close to wharf activities Food and shopping choices were abundant.

Miinukset: Location had some logistic predicaments Cable car hub is nearby but there was an accident so I had to take a bus but it didn't go to my END point and I had to walk 5 blocks UPHILL

Plussat: The staff was very friendly and helpful. The facility was clean and comfortable and you couldn't ask for a better location for Fisherman's Wharf.

Plussat: I was here on business. I was very pleased with my room and the staff. My room was really clean and the workout room had many treadmills. The only thing negative comments would be minor so I won't even mention them. Thank you Hyatt !!

Plussat: The hotel was clean and convenient to getting around the city, especially the piers and fidi, which is why we chose it. The neighborhood is very touristy, which means the restaurants aren't great, nor is the shopping, but it's close to some tourist attractions if that's the purpose of your visit. The outdoor pool and spa were an added bonus! The hotel also offered laundry machines on each floor which was nice (though detergent should be included in the cost!). The room itself was very clean, comfortable and modern. There were USB plugs and big, bright windows as well as an ottoman for lounging while working. The included wifi isn't super fast, but can be upgraded if needed.

Miinukset: Some of the desk staff was less knowledgeable and friendly than I would have expected, but others were great and made up for it!

Plussat: Nice place high end

Miinukset: Expensive

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Price confirmed by booking.com was not registered with the hotel. When they tried to charge a higher rate, I had to present the confirmation email from booking.com in order to get it adjusted down to the confirmed amount.

Plussat: Close to the wharf and waterfront

Miinukset: Huge construction going on. Had to take side door, make shift reception area. Didnt really feel welcome. would have preferred to stay elsewhere had I known about it.

Plussat: Loved the heated pool. Used every day.

Miinukset: Was given an ADA room

Plussat: the location is awesome!

Miinukset: Our room had a moth both odor to it!

Plussat: Location

Plussat: Price, Location, access to taxi's.

Miinukset: I requested the earliest possible check in time, and after my flight landed on the day of check in, the Hotel text me and said that I couldn't check in until after 3pm. I didn't have a rental car so I had to drag my luggage around downtown SF. I also requested to have a room with a view and a room on the highest floor possible. I was put on the 3rd floor with a window facing the hotels interior roof top. Zero view. There were large cobwebs above the bathroom door frame, the top sheet of my bed was yellowed on the underside and there were a few small stain marks on the sheets that were either wine, juice, or blood. King size bed was not comfortable at all. I HATE the hotels TV/entertainment system. The remote has a rollerball to control a mouse on the screen that is so small you can't read it unless you are sitting in the chair at the desk. Least user-friendly system I've ever used in a hotel. It's like you are watching tv through the computer's "tv application". Really strange.

Plussat: We liked the appearance of the lobby and room. The location was convenient to many things.

Miinukset: I didn't like the fact that I had to pay for internet at $8 per 15 minutes. It wasn't like other hotels as far as amenities.
