  • The employee that helped me check in was very kind, friendly, and helpful!
  • I asked an employee on the 4th floor where the pool was located and she very rudely replied that the pool was closed, even though it was not yet 11pm.

“We didn't spend too much time in the lobby or general area aside from the pool. Part of the pool area was under construction which was a bit disappointing. But apart from the rude employee on the 4th floor, all the other staff members we encountered were friendly and helpful.”

  • Everything!
  • The price of room service was astronomical compared to the proportions you got.

“My fiance and I have stayed here twice in the last year and we will never stay anywhere else. The staff is amazing and so helpful. This time we had our 2 month old with us and the set us up with a fridge and microwave for his bottles at no extra cost to us. Any time we had a question about how to get somewhere or where to find something, the staff was so helpful. Our stay was perfect and the room was great and even when my son spit up on half the pillows they came up and gave us new ones right away.”

  • Small details were not overlooked, outstanding customer service.
  • Parking rates were a little pricy, but not too bad.

“This hotel exceeded all my expectations and the customer service was indeed something to write home about, no small detail was overlooked. I'd stay there again in a heartbeat!”

  • Beautiful and the bed was incredibly comfortable.
  • Room was very small and parking fee was outrageous.

“Overall the hotel was great. Location was terrific. The parking staff was excellent (which was important, given that it costs $50 a day to park in the garage) as was the desk staff. The room turned out to be much smaller than I'd expected, given the rating of the hotel. The bed was incredibly comfortable, however, so that made up for the small room. We were unable to use their in-room check out service, which was a bit of a drag. It just wasn't working, so we had to check out downstairs.”

  • Great views, friendly, helpful staff, perfect location (close to SFMOMA - San Francisco Museum of Modern Art & Market St).
  • Lobby undersized compared to total number of rooms of hotel.

“Great hotel. Comfortable and modern rooms, always clean, great views, friendly and helpful staff. Excellent location - cable car platforms, market street, Westfield shopping center, Union Square, SFMOMA all within short walking distance. Fisherman's Wharf, Castro and Ferry Building all directly accessible via Tram Line F (stop is only 1 min walk from hotel).”

  • Housekeeping did a great job of replenishing all bathroom needs and cleaning my room.
  • Parking was too expensive.

“Hotel staff was delightfully helpful providing information to get around the Bay Area. Always looking forward to come back to my hotel room after a long day of activities.”

  • Restaurant. Location.
  • Guest Laundry. Only one for all those rooms, not enough.

“It was nice staying here. I felt safe and not worried at all about staying there. The elevator was a little scary and super slow. There was only one washer and dryer for guest laundry which was not enough for that size of a hotel. The shuttle was very convenient and came at reasonable times. It was not the safest vehicle I have ever been in but it worked for a quick ride to the airport. The hotel staff was super friendly and very helpful.”

  • Great View Lounge, nice views from room.
  • Unacceptably dirty guest room windows.

“Excellent location, 1 block from BART and MUNI, 2 blocks from Union Square. Public areas are spacious. View Lounge on 39th floor is outstanding. Rooms are nice, but slightly below luxury level and windows are not kept properly clean. (View Lounge windows are kept sparkling clean, otherwise this hotel would probably go out of business.).”

  • Views, awesome lounge on the 39th floor, good food.
  • Carpet in room seemed a little old, but no complaint really.

“Hotel staff was excellent. Great bed and linens, nice bathroom. Super view if you are on the high-rise floors. Really great lounge on the 39th floor. Do not miss out on seeing it if you stay at this hotel. Food and drinks well worth writing home about. We chose to spend much of our time during this short trip in the hotel, which was just fine.”

  • The amenities were excellent. especially the fitness & pool areas. The HD TV was nice. The overall hotel environment was lively and urban.
  • The valet parking was expensive.

“We enjoy the overall hotel experience with the exception on the high valet parking fee. The location is excellent. The hotel amenities provided a nice respite after a long day of sightseeing.”

  • The front desk receptionist was an incredible help, and very thoughtful.
  • The parking fee was more then 50 dollars per day.

“A great hotel if you just need a comfortable place to sleep. Rooms are small and do not have much of a sitting, lounging area.”

  • The beds were outrageously comfortable.
  • The front desk staff is horribly rude.

“The hotel lobby was very nice and they were able to grant our early check in. The large problem with this hotel was the front desk staff. The one individual we checked in with ruined our entire stay based on his attitude. The room had no view. But the bathroom, though it had been cleaned, had someone else's hair all over the floor. Very happy we were only there one night.”

  • I met our expectations and was a great location.
  • Although a great location, the area itself did not feel safe after 9:30 pm.

“Excellent 4 star hotel. Great view of the city from the roof top restaurant on the 39th floor. Would recommend this hotel to business or leisure travelers - great location. Close to shopping, restaurants and bus.”

  • Loved the staff and the size of the pool and hot tub (great hours and thought the staff fantastic).
  • Providing a screen to be placed between the queen beds would be great when traveling with children so adults could watch TV after bedtime.

“We would love to stay there again. Very kid friendly, wonderful location, terrific staff. We have grown very fond of Marriot Hotels (and we are more boutique hotel types).”
