Top San Mateo Hotel Reviews

Stanford Court San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful"

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Good stay can’t fault, best thing was they store your luggage after checking out if you’ve got a late flight like I did, bedroom has mini fridge and every floor has a purified water machine which are the added bonuses of staying here, recommend if you’re looking for value for money that’s close to public transport"

Club Quarters Hotel Embarcadero, San Francisco

8/10 Good

"This is a good hotel in a convenient location. I took public transit into the city, so I have no idea on the parking situation. I needed to go to the Ferry Building and it's a short walk. The place was clean, modern and in good shape I'd stay here again."

Hyatt Regency San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"I've been staying at this hotel about six times a year for work over the past three years, and I absolutely love it! The location is amazing, and the gym is fantastic—definitely one of the highlights of the hotel. After so many visits, it remains my go-to hotel whenever I'm in town. Always a great experience, and I highly recommend it!"

Holiday Inn Golden Gateway by IHG

8/10 Good

"Thank you , Holiday Inn San Francisco!! The view from my room was BREATH TAKING ! The Hotel was clean ! Staff were all polite and extremely helpful ! And I loved all of the amenities like the pool and the gym ! I truly enjoyed all of the surrounding restaurants and nightlife just outside of the hotel ! Definitely going to book again !"
