    Although expensive, our room was nice and very comfortable! I have never had such great sleep, as I did at this hotel! Valet was nice and bell desk was wonderful! Room service food, was a 3. Vegan burger was wet, fries were cold. The margherita pizza was burnt and not edible. All in all the $1G that I spent for the weekend was worth it.

    The pool is great to swim laps in and get a nice work out. The hot tub water level was visibly low and jets maybe needed some maintenance. The room was very nice with a sweet view of the bay. The automatic blinds were very handy. The pillows and blanket were all down, which can be nice but it is preferential. Overall, I'm considering this to be a nice home base hotel to stay when I'm visiting the city.

    I also paid extra for a room with a view, but the view was very disappointing and not what I expected. The food and drinks were quite expensive and unfortunately not very good. The check-in experience was frustrating as I had difficulty understanding the staff member assisting me, and I wasn't given clear information about the hotel amenities or where things were located. Overall, the service and value did not meet my expectations. I won't be staying here again and I cannot recommend it to others.

    The whole reason I booked this hotel was because of the swimming pool, and I have not got to use it once because it was down, it would have been nice to get a heads app that the pool wasn't even available for use. I feel like I wasted a whole three thousand dollars.I even upgraded my room when I got here.But it seemed to be a waste of time and money

    Excellent place to stay in SF. All the conveniences of a top property while priced less than other top places to stay. Once you stay there, you will understand why it was President Obama's preferred place to stayl in SF. We recently stayed at another SF Hotel and deeply regretted not going back to the Omni. We were a bit put off by the $92 a day parking--but going forward will just look at it as part of the total room price when comparing other properties.

    Large, clean 2 double bed room with a large bathroom and shower. Location is great for downtown, assuming you stay northeast of 5th street. Restaurants a short walk away but not too much very nearby. The staff is amazing, breakfast buffet was fanastic. Unfortunately the pool was closed for emergency repairs (which was not fun with kids expecting pool time) however management comped our breakfast buffet for our entire stay, truly a class act.

    Our last stay at IHG was in Miami, and we decided then that IHG was our new favorite hotel. San Francisco did not disappoint! We were provided a very spacious corner room with an outstanding view. The area is very walkable, close to transit, and the sidewalks are free and clear of the obstructions that plague other areas of the city. The staff was very friendly, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

    Zoe in the main lobby bar was outstanding. Great service knowledgeable of the local community. Bull Sutton - the concierge - is a legend. So glad we met him and got great recommendations for restaurants. He is a gem and every hotel should have one like him. A star. The bar and room were great. Amazing view. Also the Club Room, while on a lower floor, great staff and selections throughout the day. Pool and hot tub were perfect. Hot and clean. The location is amazing with so much to walk to. Chinatown. Union Square. You are a short walk. Plus free charging for your car. What’s not to love? My favorite place to stay in SF. Just wish I got the corner room they offered but then sold out. Next time! Bring your bathing suit. The indoor hot tub is the best. The bell staff were very helpful and friendly as well. Loved it. 5 stars.

    My best friend died a few days before the trip. I didn't feel up to traveling. I contacted the hotel and I contacted Expedia. They both told me they couldn't help and I would be charged regardless. So, not great. What is the point of the 'insurance' and what is the point of booking through expedia if they don't help at all?

    For a hotel at this level, the food was not very impressive. If the food quality were improved, this would be a great place to stay. I really liked the room, and the restaurant staff were excellent very attentive, professional, and kind. However, the food itself needs significant improvement. I was almost tempted to go out to eat at another restaurant, but unfortunately it was raining.

    My boyfriend and I stayed here for a 3 day trip together. The hotel was conveniently located and well kept. The only reason the star was omitted was for the parking ( which other reviews emphasized, but I did not consider it at the time of booking.) parking is $75/night. My boyfriend and I found street parking every night , and did meter in the morning( 4 hours cap , starts at 7am) but overall everything else was an ease/ clean. House cleaning missed clearing the garbage under the desk both nights, but the room was well made up each time. We didn’t try any food options but it was nice to have it available .

Would’ve preferred room further down. Also they charge $91 for valet parking which is not optional, so that adds a substantial amount to the bill. 🫤 Would stay again for sure though because it is such a great location for walking to Union Square and feels safe!!! ♥️♥️

    Excellent hotel. I have visited San Francisco in numerous occasions and, for price and value, this is the best hotel in downtown SF. The restaurant could benefit from a wider choice of menu, but there are plenty of places to eat nearby. Recommend the Indian restaurant Amber India. Great food and excellent service. For a quick bite, try The Chieftain Irish pub by the corner.

    Hotel was nice as were the employees. However, i had reserved 2 queen rooms months prior and only one was available when we checked in. They did give us a $200 room credit for the restaurant. That doesn't go far in San Francisco but it helped. The hotel was convenient to the Case Center where we attended Laver Cup.

    Unfortunately, the same can’t be said for the front desk. The service there felt cold and unhelpful, which set the wrong tone at check-in. For a hotel at this price point, we expected a much warmer and smoother experience. Overall, the room was fine, housekeeping was wonderful, but the front desk service definitely left something to be desired.

    We had a good stay at The Intercontinental - good property and good location for visiting the city. The pool wasn't working which was a disappointment and the staff offered us free breakfast instead. $40 resort fee isn't great and the discount of $15 in the overpriced bar wasn't worth much :) The lines at the lobby were long and the bed wasn't super comfortable and the mattress needed replacement.

    The front desk service was disappointing. We checked out on July 26 and were told at that time that we had a $15 daily credit during our stay. I asked why no one had informed us about this at check-in, as we could have used the credit. The staff member simply responded, “Well, I’m telling you now.” This level of service and attitude is unacceptable and certainly not what one would expect from a 4-star hotel.

    I prepaid for our room, but host made me feel like a low class imbecile for asking to use my debit card for the incidentals charge via Apple Pay. I’d stayed in 7 hotels (including The Venetian) just days prior and it was never a problem, once. I explained that I was all prepaid, my physical card is missing, and Apple Pay is the exact card I’d used to pay online - plus offered a hard copy of my full number, expiration and security code, and he still refused with nose shoved in air. He said I could use Apple Pay when I checked out (??) and paid for any incidentals, but not for the check in. I had to borrow my son’s debit card in order to get the room I’d ALREADY PAID FOR. Then he looked at my son like he was an imbecile, too, and examined his license for about 30 seconds. Next, this place is full of rude guests who cut you off in line and pretend that they didn’t. Happened to me twice! Worst part is the required valet that costs over $100 and they take 20-30 min to get you your car. Good luck if you’re in a hurry.

    My room wasn’t ready after check in time. They then gave us a different room on a higher floor but I booked a city view and I got the freeway. I would have preferred the lower floor with city view. There was broken glass scattered in front of our door and my son got a piece of it in his foot. I told the front desk and no one cleaned it up. Ever. When I checked out it was still there. I was then charged an “urban fee” that was never discussed. This hotel I’m sure used to be nice but has not been managed properly I’m assuming in the last few years, seems pretty recent. Staff was nice.

    The hotel staff was very nice and accommodating. We had asked for an early check in so that we could check in before our daughter's SFSU graduation ceremony at Oracle Park. We were pleased when we arrived an hour early and were able to check in. The front desk clerk was very helpful and gave us some bottles of water which was a nice surprise. There is also lemon/orange water available in the lobby. The rooms were nice and spacious. Beds were suuuuuuper comfy- those pillows!!!! The hotel parking was $80 which way more expensive than if purchased online at $45, so I say to definitely add it when you reserve. That was the ONLY issue we had with our stay- we were under the impression that it was $45 either way. We ate at the bar on the first night and it was pretty good for late night eats.
