Top San Carlos Hotel Reviews

Park Pointe Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"honestly great for the price. people say its a shady area but im from la and i’ve seen 10x worse, its literally just an older area. ice machine works, microwave works, bed is good enough, room was nice and clean, AC works amazing and gets the room warm/cold in minutes."

Grand Hyatt at SFO

10/10 Excellent

"Finally caught a reservation that was under $500 a night and the place did not disappoint. I will be back when the algorithm offers it again. Best of the best for SFO hotel choices. One caveat- I observed some IDF soldiers checking in and that was very upsetting. What business do they have here and who is funding such an expensive itinerary? If this is something that might trigger you as well, you are warned."

Travelodge by Wyndham San Francisco Airport North

The Marina Inn on San Francisco Bay

8/10 Good

"Clean room. Good facilities. Location is fine for local transport. Only one close restaurant which is ok. Breakfast very good Didn’t use the pool as jucuzzi not working. The outlook was disappointing as the image of the room shows boats in the marina. This marina is now empty and a bit of an eyesore. Our room wasn’t cleaned one day and we don’t know why"

Wild Palms, a JdV by Hyatt Hotel

8/10 Good

"Clean room ."

The Westin San Francisco Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Had bay view room which was nice. Room was dated and worn out. Bed very comfortable and lots of pillows and good a/c. Free shuttle to airport is nice perk."
