Starting off

Very little time here, so I'll just outline and fill it out later.
Had an excellent time in SF, despite a mediocre performance at the tournament. Squeezed in a fair amount of tourism in mornings and lunch due to our proximity to the main tourist sites.

Only minor issues so far:
Sat next to genuine crazy person on flight up. Thankfully he didn't bug me. Hotel didn't have my name on the reservation, so I had to wait and check in at 8. Yuk.
Flight out of SFO to LAX was 2 hours la...

travel details

This was a weekend trip with my two daughters and Nana. We flew out to San Jose because the early morning flights to SFO were full. The benefit of this was that we all got to sit in first class and relax. We flew back home out of SFO while Nana flew to Las Vegas to meet up with Papa. We spent two nights at the Sheraton Fisherman's Wharf. Rate was $119. This hotel had a great location just a block from the piers and a block from the cable car station. Room was standard and was clean and no pro...

San Francisco

We stayed at the Sheraton Fisherman's Wharf which was perfect for us. This hotel was very close to all the activity by the pier and within walking distance of attractions like the cable cars, Ghirardelli Square, Pier 39, and more. My daughters had a blast riding the cable cars and we took a boat tour of the bay where we cruised past Alcatraz and under the Golden Gate Bridge. The girls thought the drive down Lombard Street (crooked street) was absolutely hilarious. We also walked the Golden Ga...

Stuffed in San Francisco

After a very long drive, we arrived in San Francisco about 6pm (we left Yosemite Lodge at 12.30 and Mariposa Grove at 1.30pm). No, I still have not done any driving. We'd initially agreed that I would drive as soon as we hit the freeway, but Azrael decided it was less effort to continue the 1.5 remaining hours than to change drivers. It was also very windy, so I guess I would have driven at snails pace and we would have arrived here even later!!! Hahhahaha!!

We found our hotel easily w...

Historical Traveler Reviews of Sheraton Fisherman's Wharf San Francisco

Close to the Wharf, but don't drive

from A TripAdvisor Member
I enjoyed the location, which is only 2 blocks from Pier 39. It was pretty quiet and the hotel staff was very helpful.If you can help it, don't rent a car. The transit system is excellent and parking at the hotel was $30.00 per day. There are better rates if you look around. A place right on the wharf was only $12.00 per day, but I didn't see it until our last night. Another parking lot about 7 blocks away showed rates of $8.00 per day.Also, try Priceline.com, I got a great rate at this hotel and saved a lot of $$$ from what other people paid.

Drab Drab Drab

Great location, which is this hotels saving grace. We used the telephone twice to check on reservations later in our vacation and were charged $48!!!!! The bar prices were high. The whole hotel had a dark and unfriendly feel to it. My advice there must be many better hotels in San Francisco. We will not be staying there in the future.

Great Location!

from RocketTom
My husband and I stayed here Jul 02 for 4 nights. We had never been to San Francisco before. The room was nice and clean. The bar was cozy and the fireplace added a nice touch. Conceirge was the best I have ever seen. They were so helpful in all of the dinner reservations we made and suggested some fabulous places to dine and Just in case you want to know where: (Hanna Zen sushi, Scomos at the wharf, Top of the Tower, at the top of the Bank of America building downtown #1 views in town). Fishermans Wharf was in walking distance which was real nice because most all other hotels are further away. The hotel has a restaurant that was good as well as some others (IHOP right across street). Would reccomend this hotel we had a pleasant stay!

In need of a make-over.....

from AntG
I stayed here mid-April with my family for 3 nights as part of a multi-centre holiday (LA/Hawaii/San Fran).It is hard to describe this hotel - its best feature is that it is located close to Pier 39! Several negatives including drab/old-feeling room - tiny bathroom - extremely uncomfortable bed - noisy.When we arrived by taxi there was no-one in the lobby area so I grabbed a porter's trolley and loaded it up myself, checked in and then pushed the trolley myself to the room - no member of staff thought to stop me and ask if I needed help.We stayed in 3 hotels on our trip, visited lots of places and always were met with fantastic service - except for here. Only stay here if everywhere else is full up.

Avoid this one!

(1) Hotel would charge you room tax for Starwood members despite Starwood discount on waving the tax(2) No refrigirators in rooms although Starwood reservations explicitly include the refrigirator(3) No continental breakfast either. Starwood reservations however says otherwise(4) Valet dented my car. And the valet charge is $30/per day.(5) Unfriendly bell boys. Would not help you put the luggage in the car. Bell boy would also intentionally give wrong directions to places you want to go. Sounds too bad to be true, but that's what happened to me.

Good hotel, great tourist location

from A TripAdvisor Member
Good hotel, great tourist location! Near all Fisherman's Wharf attractions and convenient to city Muni (transit) system. Don't expect bay views! Restaurant prices high, but many nearby alternatives.

Good value if you can find a low rate

from A TripAdvisor Member
Hotel was good for the price $99.00 special but I wouldn't pay more then that. Front Desk and Valet were unimpressive (surprising given the 30.00 parking fee). Rooms were large for fishermans wharf area but dark, bathroom was tiny. There was street noise but you will get that at any hotel in this area.

Good hotel in Wharf area

from A TripAdvisor Member
Watched the hotel web site. Paid $164 for Club level, 4th floor. Was charged $30 for parking. Club level has good comp breakfast. Hotel is one of the closet to Pier 39 area. Concierge, Chris, was very helpful. View was not special.

Avoid the pool

from A TripAdvisor Member
A rather gloomy hotel in need of refurbishment. We would have been better in the city centre.

Did not enjoy my stay here

from A TripAdvisor Member
I recently spent 3 nights in this hotel. The accomadations were not great and on the first floor the street noise was awful. When I requested they change our room I was brushed off. The food and accomadations where extremly overpriced. I would not recommend this hotel.
