Lock in a great price for W San Francisco – rated 8.1 by recent guests!

to get started.

The location, adjacent to SFMOMA and the Yerba Buena Gardens, is fantastic. Having the Bliss Spa products in the room is also a nice treat. Most of the staff is very helpful, especially the valet.

Mcooper, United States of America

San Francisco has typical of USA today . Homelessness and drug use on the streets.. you don't have to look far to find it . Also individuals with mental health issues , not at all blaming them . Would expect more from this society in terms of caring ...

“Great location, horrible experince in the room.”
- • Business trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Spectacular King Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉After reserving and paying for a deluxe room with a king bed, I was told upon check-in that there were no deluxe rooms or king beds available in the entire hotel. Instead, I was charged full price for a room with a single double bed and drafty handicap shower with a shower head only 4 ft off the ground. I cannot believe the hotel charged me for a deluxe room anyways, they never even offered a discount or some sort of accommodation to justify the horrible little room they put me in! I would not stay here again.
눇The location, adjacent to SFMOMA and the Yerba Buena Gardens, is fantastic. Having the Bliss Spa products in the room is also a nice treat. Most of the staff is very helpful, especially the valet.
