Wonderful stay
Booked the Westin as a walk-in client. We were given a corner room on a high floor with amazing views over San Francisco. This is truly a fabul...
The hotel was great. However, I wish I would have know I could have rented a car there at the hotel for my day trip to Napa and Somona.
I was offered an ?upgrade? when I checked in and got to the room to find a Henry Bed (pulls out from the wall). This hotel is old and lacking compared to the other Westin?s I have stayed at. The location is great but that doesn?t make up for this overpriced dinosaur.
My wife and I got a very good deal on Travel online for hotel and flight and had a great experience. Offered a 35 a night upgrade to a tower room, but decided to stay where we were. The guy emphasized to us three different times that our room was "very small." The room was small, but was very nice...clean...large bathroom...had the heavenly bed and shower and a new flat screen TV with some HD channels. Heck! We weren't there to kill time in the room anyway! There is a lot of history in this hotel and the displays in the lobby were very interesting. Great location at Union Square. 10 cab ride to Fisherman's Wharf and the cable car (5) stops right in front of the hotel and takes you to the Wharf as well. Lots of shopping and restaurants within short walking distance and the prices weren't as high as I thought they would be. One negative: Too many panhandlers! I felt like I was getting accosted whenever I left the hotel! I had to ignore them after I realized that I would go broke if I handed all of them money! Summary: Very good experience! Highly recommended.
Beautiful place in a great location. This hotel is 3 blocks from the BART stop and across the street from a trolly stop. I arrived at 10 am and asked about leaving my back pack somewhere before check in - lo and behold they had a room ready. The room was great. I didn't have a view, but who travels to stay in their hotel room? The front desk staff is great. Y checked me in and even spent time telling of place to see. She was as excited about my visit as I was. I wished I could have stayed longer.
drinks are a little high in the bar
Stayed in the old wing... run down... smells bad... very noisy unpleasant,,, AC runs like a train when neighbors flush their toilet.. feels like a bomb hit us.. gave us a room beside the elevator,, made it more worst... sleepless night.. would not stay here again
Beautiful Hotel!
