This hotel was in a great location. A half a block to a major transit stop. About 2 blocks to the cable car end of the line station. About 3 blocks to Chinatown or Union square. We had 3 days in San Fran and had no problem getting around the city on transit. Definitely get a transit pass your first... more

Former Argent Hotel. Stayed here 2 nights with family in two queen bed room. Some peeves: arrived, nobody helped with bags from taxi/curb into lobby. Friendly front desk personnel and bellman (yes, saw only one) once inside though. Room was very clean, nice view facing bay, flat panel TV, large-clean comfy beds, large, clean comfy bathroom, large desk. Beware of... more

I was staying for 2 nights (28-29 of APR). The first impression of the building was OK and it has a fantastic location. But when I walk into the lobby for checkin, the unexpected experience started: First: My baggages were unloaded from the taxi by the bell-boy and the trolley which contain my baggages was left in the middle of... more

I booked the Westin because I'm a Starwood Preferred Guest member and they were offering a promotional deal at the time. It seemed a tad less touristy than the one in Union Square although I was a little skeptical since Westin had just bought the old Argent hotel and they were still fixing it up a little. The hotel's location... more

My best friend's parents treated us to a weekend in San Francisco to celebrate her college graduation. When I found out we were staying at the Westin I kept quite about my horrible past experience with the Westin in Los Angeles. I didn't want to upset anyone as I was lucky to be on this trip for free. I was... more

Stayed at the Westin Market Street for two nights while visiting SF on vacation. Several nice things about the hotel.. Location - can walk to many of the key areas in SF... all the shops on Market Square and around Union Square... 20 min walk to AT&T Park, walking distance to the Powell street cable car line... We were given... more

we stayed for a couple of nights...great location for downtown,floor to ceiling dual aspect windows were great that we had(room at the end of a corridor on the higher floors)but the room was pretty small for a kingsize,the toilet was malfunctioning repeatedly and there was a lot of tapping,knocking,and other irritating noises throughout the night(sounded like mice!?).In addition the cleaning... more

We booked 4 "traditional" rooms (floors 4, 6,7) for 5 nights for 8 people aged 19-82 years. The location is excellent for tourists as described in recent reviews. Half our group took the airport shuttle while others used BART to get to the hotel. Easy access to BART from SFO- and 10 minute slow stroll (not up steep incline) to... more

My husband and I planned a last minute getaway to San Francisco last weekend and it was great! We chose the Westin because 1)we've never stayed in a super nice hotel and 2)the price was too good to pass up - 159 per night! We booked the 'traditional king, non-smoking, heavenly bed and bath' online. When we got to the... more
