Fantastic!

10.0

We really enjoyed this hotel. It has fun seaside vibe and decor. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the location was perfect. The room was clean and quiet which we really appreciated. I never heard another guest during my entire stay. They have a nice restaurant for drinks and food. It felt very safe. I would choose this hotel for location alone, it was a quick walk to the Alcatraz ferry, dinner on the water or to cable or street cars in two directions. Perfect!

Special weekend getaway with a proposal!

10.0

We had the most exceptional service! My boyfriend’s best friend proposed to his girlfriend while we were in San Francisco! Johanna and the front office team went above and beyond to make sure we’re comfortable and celebrated with a lovely note, chocolate, and champagne for the happy couple! From valet to the bartenders, everyone was so kind and happy to assist. I always find an excuse to come to San Francisco so I can stay here! I’m in a distance relationship with my boyfriend and we always have the most special time together at the Argonaut. Thank you so much for everything we will be back!

Wonderful!

10.0

I’ve had consistently excellent experiences with the Argonaut Hotel and can’t recommend it highly enough. What truly sets this property apart is the staff — they are incredibly attentive, proactive, and genuinely invested in making every stay seamless. From booking through check-out, communication is always clear, prompt, and accommodating, which makes coordinating travel (especially for work) effortless. The booking process itself is smooth and flexible, and the team goes above and beyond to ensure preferences and details are handled with care. It’s rare to find a hotel that delivers this level of consistency and professionalism every time. Because of this, the Argonaut has become my go-to recommendation for colleagues visiting San Francisco for work. I’ve sent many people their way, and the feedback is always the same — exceptional service, great experience, and a team that truly cares. If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality stay with standout service, this is it.

Disappointing. Did not live up to expectations

6.0

We upgraded to a bay view room, but it was nothing like the pictures - the view was partial, unlike the picture on their website. Our room was directly on a super noisy street with inadequate sound protection. Bar closed at 10pm on a Friday. No hot drinks in our room. Comfy, but disappointing.
