We were very disappointed with our stay at the Intercontinental in San Francisco. The staff were very rude and unhelpful. They displayed a poor attitude because we had a "Hotwire" booking. They would only give us a room with 2 double beds and wanted to charge us extra for a queen or king. We didn't want to pay the extra... More

Great hotel in a good location. Staff is very helpful, especially the concierges. Stayed in a double superior room on 30th floor and had amazing view. My parents stayed in a corner room which was much bigger. However it was on 10th floor and windows on both sides were facing the walls of nearby buildings, so no view whatsoever. I'd... More

I was here with my wife and cat for a developer conference. We brought out cat, and we were upgraded for free to a corner room on the pet-friendly floor. It was also rainy during our stay, and they had large umbrellas for us to borrow right when we walked out the door. The location is excellent, and I highly... More

We stayed here for my 40th Birthday trip. The rooms was spacious and had awesome views. The bed was very very comfortable. The bathroom was huge and toiletries were of a high standard that you would expect from a IC. We had an excellent view from the room and the hotel was perfectly located. The hotel is a modern hotel... More

A lovely hotel, in a great location in San Francisco. I had a large room with 2 double beds (OK, overkill for travelling alone on business...) The bathroom was spacious and nicely designed. There was a large (huge) walk in shower (no bath) that looked fantastic and could have done with significantly more water pressure. The in-room bar was $8... More

We spent two nights end of May in this hotel. It was for me and my daughter our second stay. We really felt at home. All our wishes were fulfilled. Will not repeat myself, since the hotel, the location, the furniture in the room, the comfort and cleanliness of the room, the food, the kindness of the staff, always ready... More

I stayed for 3 nights and it was a great choice. The location of the hotel gives you a chance to have walk around in downtown San Francisco. Market Street is really close and it takes you 15 minutes to get to pier. The rooms are spacious, it has a really good bed and a very nice bathroom. The airco... More

We stayed in the Intercontinental after our cruise through the Panama Canal. The staff at this hotel could not be nicer. We had a very early morning check-in and a wonderful staff that greeted us. They could not have been more helpful. I love walking up to a desk and having everyone greet me with SMILES!!! The location is great--the... More

We stayed for five nights and found the InterContinental to be a great choice from check-in to departure. The service was efficient and welcoming from the front desk, concierge; right through to the maids. The concierge(s) were all extremely helpful. Prices are steep ...but that can be said for every hotel near the Moscone Center. Convention hotels come with expense... More
