The hotel

When you're looking to wander around Fisherman's Wharf trying out the various dining options, enjoy the entertainment on Pier 39, and wander through the shops on Ghirardelli Square - well you couldn't pick a better location for your hotel than the Kimpton Alton. Just a stones thorugh from all of the above, you're also only about 15 minutes walk from San Francisco Bay where you can take the ferry to Alcatraz. Back at the hotel the rooms offer very comfy beds, and cosy vibes that will allow you to relax after a day exploring Golden Gate City. Even better, they offer complimentary tea and coffee to kick start your day, and a complimentary wine and beer hour to wind down at the end of it! Couple that with the option of in-room spa treatments and you really will feel relaxed on this city break. The service on hand at this hotel is indeed top notch - there's even complimentary scooters on hand to use for the little ones to roam the city!

Stayed for 1 night in May 2024 - wishing we had more time at this place! Staff was amazing and ready to assist at all times, room was clean and comfy, and the location is perfect. Not to forget the traditional social hour with complimentary wine and beer. As always, Kimpton exceeded expectations.

Grabbed this room to extend a business trip. I wish I had stayed here the entire time. Great bed, staff were fabulous and helpful, and the amenities were top notch. Great location for taking in Fisherman’s Wharf and is great for couples or families…or even the stray professional looking to squeeze in some work life balance. :)

Comfortable, clean, quiet hotel with a friendly, helpful staff and a great restaurant on scene. Would 100% recommend! We stayed for a long weekend and it couldn’t have been any better. It’s convenient to all the local tourist attractions (Alcatraz, Fisherman’s Wharf, and great restaurants like Scoma’s). Would absolutely stay here again!!
