"Drop anchor at this "nautical-themed" "secret" (part of the Kimpton chain), which offers a "breath of fresh air" thanks to "nice-sized" quarters with Frette linens and in-room spa treatments."

Be sure to request a bay-view room, for an extra fee.

"Housed in what was originally a YMCA building, the Harbor Court is the only hotel in San Francisco with a location right on the waterfront."

"On the Embarcadero waterfront, Harbor Court is something of an undiscovered treat." Full review

"It is in a relatively off-the-map locale for tourists and despite the recent loss of Kimpton it remains a prize that resides blissfully beneath the radar for most out-of-towners. " Full review
Gayot Gayot
"This hotel is situated one block off the Embarcadero near the Bay Bridge, and therefore has one of the best bayside views the city can offer."
