An excellent experience
We enjoyed very much our stay in the Argonaut Hotel in San Francisco. Besides the confortable room, the excellent position and the delicious cuisine, we really appreciated the kindness and the precious advise and help of concierge Joana, which allowed us to fully enjoy our discovery of San Francisco. Thanks! Beppe and Lilli Mazzoni

Lovely Hotel
This is a lovely hotel. Reception staff were friendly. The room was spacious and the hotel is in a great location for exploring the city. Our room had a view of the Golden Gate Bridge. Rooms were clean and tidy. Would stay again if in San Francisco.

Great hotel!
I was in San Francisco for the Alcatraz Invitational Swim on Sept 7. I stayed at the Argonaut Hotel, across the street from the South End Rowing Club, which sponsored the event. My positive experience with the Argonaut started even before I arrived. I called the day before traveling to confirm some details of my reservation, and Sharon at the Front Desk answered all my questions and I was able to arrange for an early check-in. When I got to the hotel, Sharon was there to check me in, also, there was a very courteous gentleman named Tenzin at the Front Desk, and they both explained everything I needed to know regarding my stay. The hotel itself is elegant, the room was spacious and comfortable, and I had a great breakfast at the Blue Mermaid. When I finished the swim on Sept 7, Corinne at the Front Desk kindly got me a couple of towels as I was really cold from the frigid Bay and hobbling back to my room for a hot bath. When I was checking out and heading home, Gustavo and Yahane thanked me for staying and wished me well. My point is that just about everyone who worked at the hotel was super courteous, friendly and helpful. It turned out to be the best weekend, and I can’t wait to stay there again!

Love the Hotel.......a few issues would make it Great
I have really mixed feelings about this Hotel.... Parts I absolutely love and somethings just want to make you go arrghhh. We loved its location its right opposite a trolley stop and a short walk to Fishermans Walk and all the main attractions. The room was lovely spacious and spotlessly clean......overlooked the Golden Gate Bridge........so whats not to love? We arrived at 1am in the morning struggling with three large cases after a 16 hr flight. The Security Guard just said "hi" no offer of help. Night Receptionist was lovely and very polite. We got a really great room ....however the noise from the air conditioning was just so loud...so we switched it off....still really loud!!!! Noise also came from the fridge switching on and off .....very loud. Spoke to the lovely reception staff in the morning who said "Oh its probably because the air conditioning equipment is on the roof but we will check it." Came back a few hours later "It has been reported fixed at 1.10pm" Nothing had changed at all for 4 days it just made a loud noise. On several days I asked if the Concierge was available to be told "Oh we do not have one today" one arrived on our check out day!!!! We were really looking forward to dining in the restaurant having read the reviews....The food was lovely...the Staff were really poor and it was the worst service we received in our whole stay in the USA. After dinner we went to the lovely Hotel Lounge and I asked at reception where the bar was to get a nightcap by the lovely fireplace. "Oh the only bar is in the restaurant and it closes at 9pm...if you go outside of the Hotel turn left and there is a bar up the street" ....We have never stayed in a Hotel with a bar that closes at 9pm!!!! Leaving was a little like arriving ....Reception staff lovely really helpful....Two members of staff on the door let me struggle with three large bags offering no help at all. So overall if you want a funky hotel close to the Wharf and if you are prepared to put up with noisy rooftop air conditioning ...have no bar after 9pm and some really helpful staff and some really unhelpful staff its for you. Personally we would think twice as the little bits which would have made the stay magical were just missing I am afraid which is sad to say....but eh it might just me me!!!!
