This particular W seems to have lost its way. No vibe / environment. Small and dated rooms. Average service. Other than bar, no dining options.

The San Francisco W hotel was pleasant. My wife and I stayed there for one night and it was convenient to restaurants, transportation and Oracle park. The staff was very accommodating and the room was clean and comfortable. The hotel offered valet parking and, if needed, there is one EV charger available.

Best bellhop on the planet.

Julian, the bellhop was amazing. He helped us from start to finish with our stay there very friendly and the guy deserves a raise. We went on our honeymoon and they made sure that we had anything we needed and some extras which was great. Check-in was great everything was I will be staying there again.

W is in a very congested area of Sf. Finding the valet was difficult and then your car is parked somewhere, but I’m uneasy about not knowing. Getting the car back system didn’t work for me. I used the QR code on my claim check, texted the number provided and and asked for the car to be ready in 20-25 mins. Checked out 20 mins later, no car. Valet said that he received no text. I checked my phone and a message was returned to me saying that the claim # was invalid / not recognized. That was info populated by the qr code. A better solution for parking would be welcomed to lower my anxiety level around the current system
