Pleasant Experience

Best thing was the location and overall v clean and value for money,only thing i didn't like was they don't provide water in the room,you have to get it from outside or get it filled from the office below,and not all rooms have microwave the ones which have were quite expensive,but there was a common microwave in the office downstairs.1 std room was just good enough for a couple but not for family.

The "Express" Low down

Great location for visiting Fisherman's Warf Rooms were clean and comfotable. If your looking for a clean simple hotel with a good location then this is it. The only issue is the parking. It cost $43 + Tax to park your car there. You can go in and out as much as you like but I thought that was a bit steep. It wouldn't have hurt so much or been noticed if they just included it in the cost of the room. If you are using the public transportation then no worries. The hotel is close to the cable car lines and bus lines

San Francisco

Perfect location in walking distance of everything on on the wharf food, pictures, stores, and trolley. Hotel staff was great on recommeding good places to eat, where the mall was if it was better to take trolley or bus, where the nightlife was at. Only con con was the room didn't have a fridge and with all the places to eat around there needed somewhere to put my doggy bag. But besides that hotel was great......

Holiday Inn Express Hotel in San Fran

First wish weather was little better than what we were planned for... Stayed at San Francisco FISHERMANS WHARF. Access to travel and sight seeing was great location to stay. As couple we decided to stay in Kingbed room but even for 2 of us was smaller hotel room. Dont get me wrong we are not big couple, just room was small. But location was good! To get on bus tour, ride train, sight seeing, local food, its all good. I would not get breakfast at Hotel, local breakfast was just amazing.

Great location, breakfast, price

This hotel had a great location, and staff were always polite and helpful. The "free" breakfast was wonderful, beds were comfortable, and bathrooms were very clean. I totally enjoyed my experience and would not hesitate to stay at this hotel again.

Call ahead to the hotel to find out the best in tour group services. Then book online with the companies that offer the best. We printed vouchers for everything at home and saved time and trouble.

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites

This hotel is close to the Fisherman's Warf - a good location. We stayed at the Hyatt Regency SanFran and this hotel on this trip. The Holiday Inn was more expensive than the Hyatt and the facility was no where close to the same quality. If you can rent the room for $150 it is a good value. Rooms were small and felt like 1970.

Comfortable and convenient

If you're looking for a comfortable, clean hotel that's conveniently located to MUNI stops, cable cars, and Fisherman's Wharf this is your place. Although healthy breakfast choices are limited, you have many local cafes nearby that have wonderful breakfast options at reasonable prices. Staff is very helpful and housekeeping is thorough. Would definitely stay there again.

good spot to stay

This hotel is perfect for travelers who are going to spend most of their time out and about and are going to use the room just for rest. The location provides a couple of days worth of entertainment along the piers, and more to do with very short cab drives to chinatown and north beach. The free breakfast is nice, but also try one of the little cafes next door for an even better meal.

Attractions that seem to be within walking distance may be harder to reach because of the hills, but all the wharf attractions are on level ground. I found that waking up early and walking around the wharf area before the crowds show up was the more relaxing way to sightsee.
