I had a 1 night stay, it was perfect. One of the only hotels in San Francisco who offers onsite parking and it is very secure.

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf
Dated. Less than a dozen channels on TV’s. No way to stream. Tiny showers. Felt like a hotel from 30 years ago. Would not pay what we paid to stay there again. Bright side, nice location and nice staff. We skipped the comp breakfast as the line was 40 deep for the entire morning.

Hilton San Francisco Union Square
The hotel is not in the best location so beware! Once you walk outside you are near the Tenderloin to the left. Not a good area. The hotel completely price guaged due to conferences in the area. Three times the regular rate per night for an aging huge chain property is robbery! Stayed at many Hiltons ...
