Top Civic Center Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Regency San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Great view of the port. Vet friendly staff."

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

8/10 Good

"The breakfast was awesome and the rooms are clean. This is a great location. The staff were very friendly. The room was noisy due to the HVAC system. I’m not a light sleeper so it didn’t bother me but it was very loud. It’s recommended but wanted to mention the HVAC issue."

Hilton San Francisco Financial District

10/10 Excellent

"The friendly and accommodating staff and the central location made the stay a truly memorable one. The hotel is only steps away from Chinatown, and it's the perfect place from which to begin exploring the city. The rooms were immaculate, and the staff were gracious to a fault. I would definitely try to stay here in the future!"

Hyatt Place San Francisco Downtown

8/10 Good

"Our stay was due to a surgery the next morning at UCSF and we needed to check out at 5:00 am the following morning. It so happened that we arrived at the hotel just as a SF ball game was ending. Traffic and parking was a nightmare. I checked in while my husband circled the block looking for parking. Hotel staff was really accommodating and allowed us to park in their loading zone until traffic cleared. They have a parking garage nearby, but it doesn’t open in the mornings as early as we needed to check out. We eventually found a parking spot on the street and all was well. Room and staff were great, but I advise to check out the parking situation if that could be a potential problem."
