Hotel Zoe Fishermans Wharf

Fisherman's Wharf, San Francisco

Virgin rating

The hotel

It’s said that life in San Francisco is best lived on the waterfront. Where better to sample it than at Hotel Zoe, a stroll from Pier 39 and the bay. Wander out and you’ll stumble upon many fabulous shops and eateries, or pop into the hotel’s Italian trattoria for homemade crab ravioli or roasted sea bass. They serve a delicious breakfast too - why not grab a table on the sidewalk and watch as Mason Street comes to life?

Excellent position, close to pier 39, in the Marina area. Nice hotel. Rooms are all right. On the small side, an bo real view, but comfortable enough. Nice lobby as well. Breakfast is very good (in an adjacent restaurant). All in all we had a nice stay here.

The hotel is lovely and very clean. It's so close to the Wharf. Easily walkable to nearby attractions ( Pier 39) , trader Joe's, restaurants etc I wish they had a coffee maker in the room. I drink coffee often and it was sad to miss my evening cup. All in all - stay here! It's really a great safe and nice place

This was our last staff on a two week road trip, and I'm disappointed to say that it was our least favorite stay of any. We booked the stay that included the parking - that was convenient, and I saw if you paid for it separately it was $65 a day - so this was a bit cheaper, however, there is a parking garage literally next door that was advertised for $25 a day. The valets, however, were the friendliest and most helpful of anyone we met at the hotel. My experience was dampened at check-in. We arrived and there were multiple employees behind the desk talking - there was no greeting, and when they finally finished talking to each other one of them looked at me expectantly, so I gave her my name to check in. She cut me off and said, "I need an ID" - which I knew but would normally not just walk in without speaking and hand her my driver's license. There was no further conversation. She checked us in and handed me the key. No complaints with the room - it's a little compact, but very functional and was very clean. This was actually the only place we stayed during our trip where housekeeping does come in daily. We booked a deluxe King - the view - we were second floor and had a view of the bus stop - so no view. But, again, all of that would have been overlooked with a small welcome upon check-in. We were in the lobby several times during our stay, but no further conversations with anyone at the front desk. Read less

The hotel is beautiful the staff so friendly and the location is fantastic. The rooms are small but tasteful and overall had everything you need on a short 1 week break. If staying longer then storage of clothes is very limited as are the storage options but nothing that cant be overcome. We benefited from a free continental breakfast daily in the adjoining Italian bar/restaurant along with 15% off meals & drinks if booked through your room (we never used this) the hotel is 5 minutes stroll from the sea front band max 10 mins from the famous pier. You can actually walk into the main city centre and Pier one in around 1 hour ! which is lovely. The staff are all so friendly and made our stay one of the nicest we have had. Read less

We had a fab 3 night stay at Hotel Zoe! When we checked in we got upgraded to a queen suite so had lots of space in our room. The hotel is within walking distance of everything. We bought a day pass for the public bus which stops right outside the hotel and took us to Golden Gate Park and Golden Gate Bridge. Staff were friendly, hotel was clean… Read more
We had a fab 3 night stay at Hotel Zoe! When we checked in we got upgraded to a queen suite so had lots of space in our room. The hotel is within walking distance of everything. We bought a day pass for the public bus which stops right outside the hotel and took us to Golden Gate Park and Golden Gate Bridge. Staff were friendly, hotel was clean and very safe inside, the location was fairly safe considering the rest of San Francisco. You get a $15 credit to use in the restaurant which we used for one of our evening meals - would have been great for breakfast but there is a Starbucks right next door. Along with a Trader Joes which we bought water and snacks from. We loved the hotel and San Francisco! Read less
