Top Uptown Oakland Hotel Reviews

Hilton San Francisco Airport Bayfront

10/10 Excellent

"Have stayed there many times. Very clean, staff very cordial and amenities great. We park and fly and always reasonably priced for room and parking."

Hilton San Francisco Financial District

10/10 Excellent

"My room was clean, comfortable, and quiet, offering sweeping views of the city skyline. The staff was exceptionally welcoming and attentive from check-in to check-out. Grabbed a drink at the on-site bar in the evening, which was a nice way to unwind after a day of exploring. Overall, a great mix of convenience, comfort, and top-tier service. I’d definitely stay here again!"

Hotel Zephyr San Francisco

8/10 Good

"This place is always great. Clean and good location. We've been coming here for 7 years. The only 2 issues I had this particular time was the ventilation wasn't working in our bathroom. And then we paid for late checkout but a room cleaner still came in to our room. Otherwise, we had a great time."
