United KingdomThe location of this hotel couldn't be more central for most of the ground transport connections, great shopping, dining options, sight-seeing and places within walking distance. You are close to Union Square, China Town, the cable car runs and we even walked to Fishermans' Wharf - but beware the hills! All of the staff were incredibly friendly without being intrusive, although they really seemed interested in what we were doing and happily offered useful advice and tips that only locals would know. The room was very large, it was quiet and the bed was one of the most comfortable hotel beds I've ever slept in. We really appreciated the eco focus of the hotel and the extra steps it took to maintain those credentials. I would 100% recommend this hotel and cannot understand the negative reviews based on the 5 nights we stayed here.

UkraineI had a great experience at the hotel. The staff was friendly, and the room had everything you could need. My favorite part was the big bed near the window with a great view. The location was also excellent—close to shops, bus stops, and restaurants.

United StatesA return stay to the OMNI SF since pre-pandemic days and it was nice to see the same level of quality service: friendly staff from the doorman, front desk, restaurant, and especially housekeeping, all of whom me feel very welcomed. I also appreciated the coffee in the morning and evening, and apples throughout the day in the reception area. I chose the OMNI for its location - walking distance to many tourist attractions for down times (Embarcadero, Ferry Terminal, Fisherman's Wharf, Chinatown etc), as well as work in the financial district. Had a lovely stay.

We did the behind the scenes tour and it was boring.
We did the behind the scenes tour and it was boring. Not worth the money at all, they focus more on when it was a military base and not a federal prison. I’d also question the safety of people being able to walk around buildings as the guides were quick to warn us about flaking lead paint and not to touch but no mention of the potential for disturbed asbestos from the damaged walls and ceilings. Due to the age of the building I’d say it would be present. If you do go, do the self guided tourGuest review byKellyUnited Kingdom - 10.0
Great trip out.
Great trip out. If I remember rightly They may not take Ames cards. The boat comes in slowly to the rock and is regular. There is audio directions as you go round for free and it was really interesting the diverse population imprisoned there and the statistics were amazing. Really informative.Guest review byBuddha 1United Kingdom - 6.0

Go really early, crowds for wait time , ferry .

You can use the museum audio or your own telephone with a QR code if you do this take your own headphones for comfort. Go really early before the crowds. You can’t eat on the island. Know as much as you can before arriving it will enhance your visitGuest review byLesleyUnited Kingdom

Close to Lombard street and if you walk up Colombus you will find great restaurants as well. Staff really nice and helpful. Room comfy enough for 4 people. You have some nice games (giant jenga) and pool tables in the lobby.Guest review byDiegoSwitzerland

- From $366.33 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.4Very Good - What previous guests thought, 12,203 reviewsSuper location if looking to do touristy things like Alcatraz, Big Bus, Cable car, Pier 39, and Fisherman’s Wharf. Free buffet breakfast daily very good with excellent service staff. Parking expensive but worth it if taking trips to surrounding areas. We drove to Sausalito, Carmel, Big Sur, etc. btw Waymo comes right to front of hotel! Rooms smallish but clean. Did not use outdoor pool as weather cold (in July!). Nice fire pit sitting areas. Nice vibe for families.Guest review byJamesUnited States

We had everything we needed for a short stay. If you are ok to walk, you can walk to Pier 33 for Alcatraz and pass an iconic Lombard Street. We were with mini van and it was always a parking place for us (taking into consideration that it is a holiday season). No breakfast optionGuest review byRutaLithuania

It was so easy to walk or catch the bus to what we wanted to see and do. The free parking was a huge bonus. The staff kept our luggage while we went to Alcatraz after we checked out. They were exceptionally welcoming. I would stay here each time I come to San Francisco.Guest review byAlexUnited States
