Top Central Park Hotel Reviews

Best Western Inn & Suites San Mateo - San Francisco Airport

8/10 Good

"At breakfast they allowed a young female in her underwear and t shirt to walk amongst the breakfast crowd and make a plate. She sat there in her underwear and t shirt amongst other families and ate, the front desk did nothing about it. The food court lady informed them and they told her to not worry about it. Several families left the area including me without breakfast."

Embassy Suites by Hilton San Francisco Airport Waterfront

8/10 Good

"Love this place and stay when going to SF. Even though it’s close to the airport you don’t really hear the planes. Happy hour great- bartender was excellent! Have had problems with the cleaning chemicals used but just opened the window for fresh air. TV looked like old film not crisp or clear and sound kept dropping out. Overall happy."

Crowne Plaza Hotel Foster City - San Mateo by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing stay! Highly recommend. Indoor pool was clean and no humidity. Had open ceiling window for fresh air flow. Food was amazing and staff were helpful and very friendly. Went with my family and grand kids loved it!"

Hilton Garden Inn San Mateo

10/10 Excellent

"Great and clean hotel. Breakfast could be improved, though."

Hampton Inn & Suites San Mateo-San Francisco Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and organized and the staff are very friendly"

The Catrina Hotel

8/10 Good

"Everything was clean except there were several long dark hairs on the floor. It was convenient to the SF airport. My only complaint is that I tried to call several times in the few days prior to my arrival to confirm and all I got was a recording saying that the phone number didn’t accept incoming calls and this was from the link on their website so I was getting a little nervous. I ended up having to call their parent Company to confirm my reservation. I mentioned this at check-in, and apparently they have a bot that answers most of their calls, but only during certain hours. I did not find that a satisfactory explanation. Although than that, it was a great place for a quick overnight before flying out of San Francisco. We had dinner at Jack’s down the street and it was delicious with a great menu."

Courtyard by Marriott San Mateo Foster City

10/10 Excellent

"I felt very welcomed and it was a safe area with beautiful courtyard. Great food in the Bistro too! Will be back!"

Extended Stay America Suites San Francisco San Mateo SFO

8/10 Good

"Staff was great A/C was great Room floor was dirty and in our 10 day stay no one came to clean the room Breakfast was Coffee and snacks- no real breakfast!"
