Great hotel and location

This was our first trip to San Francisco. Perfect room on the 10th floor with a view of the bay bridge. Staff was great and hotel location was too! We felt pretty comfortable walking to Market Street at night. September seems like the perfect time to visit. Hope to make this an annual trip!

Frisco on New Years

I was in Fisco to attend two rock and roll concerts over new years '09-'10. A freind of mine from the midwest enjoyed our stay at the Courtyard. It was convenient to stay here - just a few blocks from the mass transit systems on Market street, and we had no problems getting around the city. This location was nice and quiet and met our needs. I'd stay here again for similar purposes.

Bike ride across the golden gate bridge and go into Sausalito. Nice ride with just a few up hill climbs to conquer.

Everything was perfect

The front desk staff were friendly, attentive and efficient. They greeted me the moment I arrived, [...] and had me on my way in very short order. On my return I was greeted each time with a "welcome back". The room was clean, quiet, and well apportioned. I'd definitely use the hotel again.

Der Pool mit einer Wassertiefe

Der Pool mit einer Wassertiefe von 1m reicht für ein paar Längen nach einem Sightseeing Tag völlig. Ebenso die Fitnessgeräte reichen aus, um sich etwas abzulenken. Frühstück war bei uns nicht enthalten. Direkt im Hotel befindet sich aber ein Starbucks. Taxikosten vom Hotel zum Int. Airport ~36,- USD
