Fodor's "The distinctive design of this 40-story hotel has been compared to a parking meter and a jukebox... the public spaces and guest rooms have received attention as well." Full review

"This 1,499-room business behemoth ideally straddles SoMa, the Financial District, and Union Square." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Families always appreciate the indoor pool and the fact that children under 18, when accompanied by an adult, can stay there free."
Star Service "Marriott's best in the city is currently the lively boutique Adagio, with the larger San Francisco Marriott Union Square coming in at a close second." Full review
Gayot "This hulking hotel --- situated near Yerba Buena Gardens and the Moscone Convention Center --- is affectionately referred to as the Jukebox by locals, because of its scalloped shape."

Travel + Leisure "Housed in the 1907 Haslett Warehouse, the Argonaut is the only hotel located in the Maritime National Historical Park." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This historic 1907 San Francisco building is now home to a maritime-themed boutique hotel."
Fodor's "The spacious rooms, many with a sofa bed in the sitting area, have recently been redesigned but still spotlight exposed-brick walls and wood-beam ceilings." Full review
Star Service "This still ranks among the best small hotels here, and it remains a champion along the north end of Fisherman's Wharf." Full review
Gayot "Set in Fisherman's Wharf, this Kimpton Group hotel goes for broke with its maritime theme."
Zagat4.3
"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."
