Best hotel breakfast...but the line was super long and crowded. First floor room had street sounds all night and they put us in a handicap room that we didn't need and the shower didn't work properly. The food is good and the bellman Abdur was an excellent person. He helped us make a really smooth exit and arranged beautiful transportation to cruise terminal pier 27

I would categorize myself as a person who travels regularly for business and as such I’ve stayed at a lot of hotels, most of those being in a category (mid-luxury/luxury) Riu believes it is in. In all my years of traveling, I have never experienced a check in process like Riu’s. First the staff member asked for the IDs of all adults in our party. I am used to providing my own and thought this was strange but complied. Here’s where it started to get really weird…she wanted the names and ages of my 4 younger children (we have 5 ages 9-18). Again, weird but I complied. Then during mindless (I guess required) chit chat during conversation she asks why we are staying for one night here on July 4. She literally asked me “don’t they have fireworks back home where you live?” Wow, incredibly rude. Then came a short litany of documents to sign and initial w pen/paper. I’m pretty sure the entire inquisition, I mean check-in process, took at least 20 minutes. It really doesn’t have to be this complicated and in retrospect I found it a bit invasive and suspicious. Hopefully will get to speak w someone while here, but only here for a day as the first stop of our road trip down the coast. If you’re parents traveling w kids, I’d look for a different hotel. We were clearly not from their target guest category and it showed.

Noisy room on the ground floor. You could hear every word if someone walked by and the generator from the parking lot across the street kept we awake half of the night. Definitely not what I expect from a RIU Hotel. Very disappointed. Maybe you should invest in new windows. However, location and breakfast were great.

Nice get-away

Many great things. Breakfast was the best...couldn't be much better. Location was great. Decor was very good. Wish the rooms were a bit larger and in particular the bathroom. No sink counter space made it inconvenient. Had trouble with the air conditioning/fan. It was not consistent. It did not seem to cycle on and off normally, keeping the room temp consistent...usually it was too warm.

Best Breakfast Buffet!!

We stayed for four nights with our three teenage grandchildren. It is a great location for Fisherman's Wharf activities. The bathroom/vanity area is small, but the firepits are really nice way-stations after a long day. The breakfast buffet is PRIMO. There is a wide variety of food, including lots of fresh fruit. This restaurant was so well-organized. We would stay again, just for the breakfast!!

Great location and stay in San Francisco. Can easily walk to pier, parks, downtown. Rooms were comfortable, some street sounds. Ambiance with outside fire table areas were a nice place to relax. International breakfast was wonderful. Even if there was a line the hotel staff helped everyone find a seat and keep the line moving. Parking on site was great! Not to expensive compared with other hotel parking costs.
