Will definitely return to this hotel.

This is a beautiful property, walking distance to all Cannery Row and Fisherman's Wharf has to offer. My one caveat would be if you have a room facing the harbor, be prepared to be serenaded by sea lions all night long. We like to sleep with our window open. If we'd shut it, we wouldn't have heard them. It made us laugh in the middle of the night. But some people might be disturbed.

Amazing concierge services. We took a day long road trip to this hotel and their concierge desk stayed connected with us throughout the day making sure our room is set to our expectations. I had preordered flowers to be delivered to our hotel but had used a wrong address and concierge managed to have it fixed. The only item that raised my eyebrows was cost of valet parking as they don’t have self parking but the valet team does an amazing job.
