Kimpton Alton Fisherman's Wharf by IHG

Kimpton Alton Fisherman's Wharf by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"The property is located in the heart of The Wharf, but there were not several homeless and/or loitering persons on that actual street (cannot say that about most other streets), so it is safer. They host a nightly manager's reception with beer and wine - what hotel still does that? The front desk, valets (and reception bartenders) were all nice and helpful"

Hotel Caza Fisherman´s Wharf

10/10 Excellent
"**Great Location, Clean Rooms, and Excellent Amenities!** Hotel Caza was very clean and secure. Even the main entrance and elevators required a hotel key for access, which made me feel safe. The staff were friendly, and the room was spacious and quiet. The amenities were also great, including a pool table in the middle of the lobby! Breakfast is available with payment. My only unpleasant experience was during check-in. Since I booked through a third-party website, the front desk quoted me a different parking fee and asked for my credit card for payment, even though my reservation was already prepaid and parking had already been paid for. Thankfully, I double-checked my email confirmation. Otherwise, I might have been charged incorrectly. I also booked a city-view room, but the view was actually of another building. Since I was only staying for one night, it wasn't a big deal. I do wish the room had a refrigerator, though. **The best part of this hotel is its location!** It's within walking distance of Fisherman's Wharf and close to many other popular tourist attractions, making it very convenient for sightseeing. Overall, despite the minor issues at check-in, I had a pleasant stay. I highly recommend Hotel Caza for its cleanliness, security, amenities, and excellent location!"
