Love this Hilton! I always stay here when in SF. Tower 3s renovated rooms are awesome. Reminiscent of a W standard room. Be sure and avoid walking into the Tenderloin after dark. Can be a bit sketch.
Ask for a room in Tower 1 that is an even number on a high floor beginning with 70 ie. 1-3370, you will get an amazing view of downtown, the water, and AT&T Park!
The bar is in the 45th floor great view, our check in was great, our renovating room was great, furniture was old, Nora, Elain from front desk where great, also David and Melvin Bartenders
Home to several conferences and conventions, including JavaOne, this Hotel has many amenities. Fantastic access to local landmarks, great restaurants, huge lobby for impromptu meetings, luxury rooms.
Lauren HarrisonDecember 5, 2012The service was amazing, when I mentioned that I didn't feel safe going out front to smoke they upgraded me to a suite on 32nd floor Tower 1 with a balcony for free so I didn't have too!
Even if you don't have a car, be sure to check out the parking garage entrance. A typically boring space has been made very cool, and it's worth the few extra minutes to see it.
Jenni ShrumApril 4, 2017Make sure you are a Hilton Honors member to get better perks. Rooms are being renovated which is good. Staff is Amazing and very helpful.
Keith Furrow, Realtor viewgulfcoasthomes.comNovember 7, 2013KJ Landis is one the besy servers we have ever had. She works at Urban Cafe. The food was unbelievable great. I recommend the scallops
National Car RentalJune 3, 2012Just steps from storied SF neighborhoods, stay here and you’ll be at the center of it all. If you're looking to get some work done, rooms come with a work desk. FYI - free Wi-Fi is only in the lobby.
James MorelliJune 21, 2013If you're looking for a quiet hotel, this one isn't for you (lots of families w/ kids) but it has a great central location and is a good jumping off point for your adventures in the rest of the city.
MeliDecember 19, 2016If they try to sell you wifi, don't buy it. They'll then try to get you to sign up for some free membership where you get to use wifi free during your stay. Wifi is $40/day, which adds up!
Great location of the biggest hotel in the west coast. However, this is the only big here. Small bathroom, small gym, small pool...
Haider AliJuly 15, 2014Try to get a room on the higher floor in tower 1. They have excellent views of the downtown and the Bay
Ryan PalmerApril 26, 2022Great location. Close to Union Square, around the corner from Curran theatre, and walking distance to any restaurant you want!- Town car to the airport is definitely worth it. Costs about as much as a cab, but so much more pleasant. Ask the bell desk to set you up.
- Incredible view of the Golden Gate Bridge from Tower 1. This is from the 44th floor.
Lane CollinsJanuary 16, 2017The contemporary style rooms are okay, but the hotel itself is enormous and sort of feels like staying in an airport terminal. Not a big fan.
complimentary bottled water @ front desk (Hh program). Starbucks inside $2 more, exit the hotel then turn right-two starbucks in 2 blocks. Parking $50/day (unlimited access 24hr). Warm small pool.
Rooms are decent and so is location but the breakfast buffet is steep ($29) plus 15% gratuity on ALL checks. Walk a block or two and save! Probably the case with all San Fran hotels though.
Cable car stop is a couple blocks away for anything outside walking distance. Ask doorman for a towncar to the airport: $40 + tip is least expensive & a nice way to ride.
Alex MartinAugust 1, 2012Free water, all you can drink... just turn on the tap in your bathroom. This is a hotel, not a resort. If you want good prices and friendly service, go outside and find them. You're in San Francisco!
Tulio is great! He is one of the team members minding the gym. He noticed I had a phone and no headphones and went and got me a pair. Proactive customer service!
Phil BushApril 4, 2013Higher floors have a great view! Urban Tavern is not that great, better places around the area. Make sure you stay in a Tower where the workout Room is!
Great location. Easy access to a lot of places. Get a high floor for a view. Pool is on the 16th floor.
Brad LaiOctober 27, 2014A great space for an awesome charity event! All the staff are very friendly and helpful.
David BowserSeptember 11, 2014The breakfast buffet included in our family rate was worth it. But free wifi in the rooms would be a welcome addition in these times.
North two blocks and west two blocks you'll find a darling little cafe in the Tendernob called "Farm:Table" that has become one of my favorites in the city. Really good coffee there.
GS RajuJuly 13, 2017Fantastic city view from 46th floor, the restaurant. It's the top floor don't miss.
Carolita RoOctober 26, 2012Patti at the concierge desk is great! She will make sure to get you the best deals on tours and recommend really good food places! Very helpful! If only I could take her home to Mexico with me!
jiresellOctober 3, 2016Great location, convenient to all the shopping and restaurants in the Union Square area!
Brittany SherrillMarch 18, 2013No free wifi, breakfast or any amenities. Bed like a rock. Honestly I'd take my chances with the Hampton Inn for much cheaper. Don't turn left when leaving this hotel. Best restaurants to the right.
Erica J. SimpsonMay 7, 2013The lobby has great docking stations although you won't get much work done because the people watching is off the hook!
MereMay 21, 2015It's the largest hotel on the West coast! Parking sucks and is pretty expensive, so I recommend taking public transit to get here.
Alexander MironenkoSeptember 25, 2013Cool oracle javaone event in Hilton and Moscone center. A lot of people, cool dishes and nice environment
Rewan PartiJune 10, 2015Not the best Hilton property amongst their portfolio for the price point. Get the high floors with the bay view. Also carry bottles of water since they do not keep them in your room.
k pMay 12, 2013Outdoor heated pool and hot tub on 16th floor. The wind is blocked on all sides. We had the place all to ourselves.
Talk to Security Guards in white. They know some of the best kept secrets. Want to see the City Skyline? Talk to the guards. If there is nothing going on at the 46th Fl, the guards can give tour.
Spencer HudsonFebruary 2, 2013Great hotel spending time and money renovating rooms. The staff are super helpful. Would highly recommend.
Suites are small, but comfortable.. Lots to do around hotel good wi Fi if gold star member.. Good place to stay if only needed for a place to sleep
Use the lifts to the right of the Lobby even if in Tower 3 as its much quicker
Jules BelcherOctober 16, 2014Very nice, if a little dated on some floors. Very nice staff and an outdoor pool and spa.
The airport shuttle can be late, YOU CAN'T! The Pick-Up Time on the shuttle arrangement is the vendor's time. Be there (E side of Hilton) before the Start Time! This is for shuttles after 4:30pm.
Manolo Gonzalez MirandaJune 29, 2019Great hotel, pricy but it’s worth for the location and amenities
WiFi session from the lobby will continue in your room (and continue being free) if you keep the computer/device active.
Best Reviews AroundMay 4, 2013Rooms are a little small. Bathrooms definitely small. Overall not a bad place to stay.... No good food or drink options on site. Registration line can get rather long as this is a popular place!
Antonello LoddoApril 17, 2018The breakfast restaurant is pricy but quite good, and with great service
Nice place to stay. Close to many things to do and places to eat. Second time here.
