We traveled with our kids, ages 6-13 to San Francisco for Labor Day Weekend. We had 2 rooms next to each other. The rooms were very nicely decorated and comfortable. The people staying there were young and trendy. The location was good. 5 min walk to Union Square, 2 min walk to Market St. and a 20 minute walk to... more

We celebrated my sister's birthday at W San Francisco, and had a FABULOUS time! The staff (especially the GM of the hotel) were so friendly and courteous. They were very attentive to us, which was great. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone, and everyone. more

This is truly a stylish hotel to be enjoyed by all ages from young to not so young. The atmosphere in the lobby bar in the evenings was a great place to have pre dinner or post dinner drinks, meet friends etc. The feed in the restaurant was excellent and catered for all palates and so did the wines available.... more

Located 5mins walk away from Market Street and the main shopping area of SF. And very close to chinatown and the financial district - perfect to combine work and pelasure. Already familiar with the W concept, we certainly were not let down by the W in SF. The relaxed feel of the W is immediate, yet all staff maintained an... more

My husband and I recently stayed at the W Hotel in San Francisco in celebration of my birthday. From the moment we arrived in front of the Hotel and were greeted warmly and professionally by the Bellman to our departure the next afternoon, our entire experience at the W went far beyond our expectations. Our room was beautifully appointed, the... more

Being an SPG member, booked the W on a recommendation from a local colleague in SF. Modern & swanky bar, youthful & trendy look which is a great social meeting place. Typical "W" theme of modern & trendy, not necessarily a family hotel apart from the pool & the Pac Man machine(free). Good location, 5 mins from union square ,... more

Firstly this hotel puts you in a good, central part of town with only a 5 minute walk to Union Square. Arrival and check in was hassle free and efficient and I got free upgrade too which was nice. The rooms themselves were well appointed as you would come to expect from a W property and the bed was comfortable.... more

This is a trendy hotel that definitley makes you pay for the"cool" aspect of being here. I have never stayed at a W hotel, but i doubt i will be paying this much again for a W hotel. I felt that the rooms were dusty, the windows of the room had greasy finger prints all over them and the dust... more

My husband and I got married in a very private ceremony here at the end of July. Everything was amazing. The guest room was spacious, the bed was comfortable and the property was immaculate. Our Wedding Planner Allison Fox was so wonderful, she even stayed late on a Friday night to assist us. The pool area is nice and the... more

This hotel is a boutique, one block away from the Moscone Convention Center. My sister was there on business and I tagged along for the fun - after all, this is San Francisco! The hotel staff was welcoming, friendly, and extremely accomodating from start to finish. I'd describe it as casual/chic. Really comfortable seating in the "Living Room", good DJ... more
