Argonaut Hotel at Fisherman's Wharf - a Kimpton Hotel - San Francisco

Alles super, fehlte nur noch der Pool.

Sehr freundliches Personal; Beste Lage für Touristen; gepflegtes Haus mit individueller maritimer Note; tägliche Einladung zum Wein am Kamin in der Lobby zwischen 5 und 6 Uhr nachmittags; tägliche Reinigung des Zimmers, alles sehr sauber

Das Hotel ist sehr gemutlich, komfortabel, das Zimmer war sehr ruhig. Das Hotel ist ideal am Fishermans Warft und an der Endhaltestelle der Cable-Car-Bahn gelegen. Wuerde sofort wieder dort buchen.

Alle positiven Bewertung die wir im Vorfeld gelesen haben wurden bestätigt! Wir hatten ein tolles Zimmer mit Blick auf die Bay und Golden Gate. Highlights sind die ruhige und zentrale Lage sowie das Design des Hotels.

Fisherman's Wharf ist eine teure Lage aber das war teuer, selbst für die Gegend dort. Auf den ersten Blick ein gut gemachtes Hotel 4****. Kein Schwimmbad.Große Lobby aber leider sehr dunkel. Super Lage, große Zimmer, freundliches, hilfsbereites Personal. Die Haltestation für das Cable Car liegt auch gleich um die Ecke. Hinter dem Hotel am Eck ein Starbucks Caffe, wo man gut frühstücken kann. Zum Peer mit den Seehunden sind es nur wenige Minuten, die Doppeldeckerbusse fahren auch gleich um die Ecke ab. "Und wer wirklich dringendst einen dieser vom Hotel angepriesenen LCD-TVs braucht - warum auch immer - dem sei gesagt, dass längst nicht alle Zimmer darüber verfügen, auch in den höheren Kategorien. Nicht dass mich so etwas wirklich stören würde; es hinterlässt nur ein gewisses „Geschmäckle“ wenn falsche Versprechungen gemacht werden." Hat ein Gast aus der Schweiz geschrieben und das STIMMT.

Das Hotel liegt genial für Ausflüge, da Cable Car, Strassenbahn, Busse usw. gleich um die Ecke erreichbar sind. Ich war sehr zufrieden mit allem was das Hotel betraf. Im Restaurant bin ich nicht gewesen, da ich den ganzen Tag unterwegs war, also kann ich dazu nichts sagen, doch vom rein optischen, nett. Am späten nachmittag gab es täglich eine Weinverkostung und man konnte dadurch Leute kennen lernen. Auch für mich als Singlereisende kein Problem dort am Abend aus zu gehen, da einiger Trubel vor der Tür war und die Gegend sehr sicher ist. Also wirklich sehr zum weiterempfehlen.

Ideale naehe zur Stadt,am Wharf Wohnen wie in HH in der Speicherstadt. Besonders ruhige Zimmer zum Innenhof,ohne Aussicht aber traumhaft schlafen.

hallo leute, das argonaut ist ein sehr schönes haus, nette zimmer. super lage - direkt am hafen (5 minuten zum pier 39), cable car-station quasi ums eck, also nostalgiefahrt in die market street (shopping!) möglich. würde es sofort wieder buchen, auch wenn es nicht ganz billig ist. taxi zum flughafen: 30 minuten, ca. 45 dollar (stand sommer 08)

Mittendrin und wunderschön !

Das Hotel ist für eine Geschäftsreise sowie für eine Privatreise hervorragend gelegen. Direkt am Fishermens Wharf 2min zur Cable Car Haltestelle und Busverbindungen. Ein Pool hätte das Angebot noch vervollständigt allerdings nur wenn es ein indoor gewesen wäre, da bei unserem Aufenthalt es sau kalt war (18 C°). Wäre aber normal in San Francisco.

Besuchszeitraum Juli 2008 Sehr gutes ruhiges Hotel in guter Lage. Sehr guter Service Mitten im Touristentrubel

Tolle Lage, super Zimmer, guter Fitnessraum, kein Pool, Flachbildschirm. Sehr sauber, Tageszeitung Parkhaus oberhalb des Hotels verwenden, wenn man ein wenig sparen möchte. Vorsicht, bei Telefonaten oder ähnlichem drohen hohe Zusatzkosten!

Super Hotel mitten an Fisherman's Wharf, gleich neben Ghiradelli Square. Anders als viele der nahen Touristen Hotels hat dieses Hotel Stil und Charme. Service, Freundlichkeit des Personals und Sauberkeit sind exzellent. Sehr nett: In der Lobby gab es zwischen 17:00 und 18:00 immer eine kostenlose Weinprobe. Das Restaurant ist eher Durchschnitt - auch beim Frühstück. Einziger Minuspunkt: Das teure Parken (nur Valet-Parking).

es gab schlichtweg nichts zu meckern

Einfach nur super ! Freundliche hilfsbereite Mitarbeiter,sehr saubere Zimmer und alle Unterhaltungsmöglichkeiten in der Nähe.Würde sofort noch mal hin.

Den sehr positiven Eindruck den das äußere des Hotels auf mich gemach hat, wurde durch das Innere bestätigt. ALLES sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet, sehr aufmerksames, freundliches Personal. Das Hotel ist sehr gut gelegen, nicht im großen Trubel-Bereich am den Piers, diese sind aber sehr gut und schnell zu Fuß zu erreichen. SEHR EMPFEHLENSWERT

Cannot beat the location. The view was a bit overstated in the description, but overall everything was excellent.

too expensive for what you get!!!

We had a lovely room overlooking the Bay, it was spacious and fully equipped with everything you could need. The location was great with ferry boats, tours and car hire, restaurants and supermarket all close by. The room was very quiet and we didn't hear any outside noise or noise from other guests. The hotel service was excellent and the conceriege most helpful. Complimentary glass of wine between 5pm and 6pm in the lobby was a nice way to relax after a hard days sightseeing.They also printed out our boarding passes for us before leaving.

The staff was very responsive, the location was good, and the hotel restaurant was very good.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Argonaut. It's right in the middle of the Fisherman's Wharf area. The room was decorated in a tasteful nautical/loft theme with a comfortable bed, a couch for TV watching, and a clean, up-to-date bathroom. The bathroom granite counter top was a bit small. Also, the hotel entrance is VERY hard to spot. It is right on the street, but there is an awning which has trees on both sides of it so you have to look very closely. Just pull up and the attendants will take care of you. Parking is far away, so you will probably have to pay for valet parking. We would definitely stay there again. If you plan to visit Alcatraz, be sure to buy your tickets online way ahead of time. There is quite a ticket-scalping scam in place regarding these tickets. We were told at the ticket booth that they were sold out for the next 7 days, but that's because the scalpers have bought up all the tickets and sell them for a much higher price at these little stands all around the wharf area. And, there is only ONE tour boat company available that actually LANDS on Alcatraz! It's worth the trip so get your tickets online ASAP. Also, take a double decker hop-on, hop-off tour. It's an easy way to get around and you'll get a little history, too. Last, but not least, be sure to ride a cable car...we had a blast doing that!

Stayed here with my husband and two kids 11 and 9. It is right by the cable car turnabout and Ghiradelli/Fisherman's Wharf. We were satisfied but not wowed. Bell desk service was super friendly. Front desk service was cold and dismissive. Does allow pets which might be helpful to a lot of travelers. VERY expensive to use their parking!!!

The Argonaught is situated right on Fisheman's Wharf so it is great for just strolling along with the crowds and soaking up the atmosphere. But as it is at the end of the tourist area it dosn't get too crowded or noisy. Very good room although as it is in an historic buliding and the windows are small it can be a bit dark.

I rolled up in jeans and a t-shirt feeling a little underdressed, but they did not blink and checked us in early, making us feel like we were VIPs and they have been warmly waiting for us. Excellent experience, and staying *on* the wharf was amazingly cool. I will stay there again, and next time try to get a bay view. ;-)

Although this hotel was beautiful and classy, it was also equally comfortable and friendly. The friendliest people are the bellhops. We came in from a long bike ride over the GG bridge. They gave us Popsicles, which was absolutely perfect!!! They were also very helpful with directions and suggestions. The free wine at 5 every day was nice, too! Overall, it was a great experience. It was definitely worth paying more for the view. I would definitely stay there again.

This was a great great hotel.. So nice, Staff was so friendly. We would recommend this hotel to everyone.. The aveda products in the bathroom were a super plus, so was the starbucks around the corner!!!!!!

An obvious asset for this hotel is the great location to everything, but the best thing about it is the hotel staff. They are courteous, informative and fun and make it a nice environment to be in.

Located near Ghiradelli Square and the cable car turnabout for Powell/Hyde. Nice, clean and quiet area near Fisherman's Wharf and great for kids. View of Alcatraz and Golden Gate Bridges. In walking distance to Pier area atractions, restaurants and shopping.

Great service. location on the north end of fisherman's wharf is great. The award winning chowder in the attached restaurant/bar is to die for. This is really a whole lot nicer than the chainy (rather faceless) hotels only a few blocks away

The Staff was fantastic! Right from the valet service, to the bell hop and the front desk, everyone treated us like royalty! A must stay in S.F.

Absolutely fantatic hotel staff - from doorman to front desk to bellhop. Have stayed in hundreds of hotels around the world and have never had a more pleasant experience with hotel staff. The Argonaut is a "pet-friendly" hotel so we had two very annoying ankle-bitters in the room next door barking and whining most of the first night. With ear-plugs (a travel/hotel must) it was not too big an issue. Location was excellent and close to everytihng we wanted to do. Would stay again and would recommend without reservation.

We enjoyed our stay at the hotel very much, the only draw back was that the hotel did not have a room with a view available for us unless we wanted to pay an additional amount). It would have been helpful to know this when booking the hotel.

I loved the physical attributes of the hotel (building design, decor, room size, etc.). It's truly unusual. But I was very annoyed by two things: First, we paid $15 for a pay-per-view movie and at 8:00 p.m. we were called by the front desk telling us that the adjoining neighbors were complaining about our t.v. volume, which wasn't the least bit loud. We had to stop watching our movie because to reduce the volume meant that we literally couldn't hear it. It wasted our $$ and really ticked me off that the wall was built poorly enough that this could be a problem. Second, the hotel advertises a late-night room service menu until midnight, which I counted on for dinner. When I called with our oder I was told that the only late-night options on weekends are soup and ice cream because the kitchen closed at 10:00 p.m., regardless of what late-night options are shown on the room service menu. I also expected the beds in a hotel of this calibre to be considerably more comfortable. In all, I'd say if you're a tourist interested in the tourist-trap attractions (ie: Fisherman's Wharf and bars) then you'll probably like this place. But I preferred the five-star Fairmont on Nob Hill, which ironically cost us less than this hotel the same week.

This was our second stay at the Argonaut and a great time was had by all. Truly enjoyed the Wine hour from 5 to 6pm it was a great way to end the day and begin the evening. Fisherman’s Warf can get old but the trolleys are right next door and most San Francisco Sites are only a $10 cab ride away. Enjoy.

This was our first trip to SF and we were so happy that we chose the Argonaut as our hotel... we had originally planned to stay in Union Square and were very glad that we switched to Fisherman's Wharf, just because there is so much to do and see right there on the water. The hotel location is amazing (busy, but really great in terms of being close to a lot of things) and the hotel itself was very clean and well kept... we had a great time wandering around and then coming back to the hotel to truly relax. The free wine tastings were a nice touch! I would definitely stay at the Argonaut again and would recommend it to anyone who is traveling to San Fran and who wants to stay in a unique hotel near the best sights in SF! :)

The location was perfect. We were able to walk almost everywhere we wanted to go.

We got a great rate on this hotel and we ended up staying 3 nights instead of one since they matched our weekday rate for the weekend, great service and awesome hotel!

This is an excellent boutique hotel. It's location on San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf is convenient -- our room overlooked the turn around area of the cable car run! The staff were all exceptionally and genuinely friendly. Free wine tasting was wvailable to guests in the evening. and ... as we found out later this upscale hotel allows guests to bring their dogs and allow them to stay in the rooms for Free! This was the best hotel we stayed in during our recent trip to the USA.

We had never heard of the Kimpton Group, but the reviews for The Argonaut, a Kimton hotel, were very good. We were not disappointed. The location is just a couple of blocks from Pier 39, and one block from the cable car turnaround. It has two great places for breakfast just a block away. The service from the doormen, to the concierge, to the desk attendants was very professional and thorough. Would definitely stay here again and again.

This hotel was fantastic. It was in a great location, within walking distance of Fisherman's Wharf. It was beautiful and very comfortable. The staff was very helpful and pleasant. My only regret was that I did not stay long enough to take advantage of all of the amenities.

We have now stayed at the Arognaut three times and we always love it. The staff is very friendly and helpful (despite the funny hats). The location is very convenient for us. Our son lives a few blocks away. It's also within walking distance of the wharf, the Marina, Fort Mason and Restaurant Gary Danko. There is a Cable Car stop across the street and several restaurants right in the complex. It's also within walking distance of Safeway, if you want snacks, etc. without raiding the mini bar. The evening wine hour by the fire in the lobby is always fun. Our only complaint was that the first night we were there, two very loud chatty women were in the room next door. They blabbed well into the wee hours and kept me awake. Our room had an adjoining door to their room and the sound carried through that.
