Hotel Zephyr San Francisco - A nautical-themed waterfront hotel with outdoor gaming yard and Bay views

Located in Fisherman's Wharf, this 4-star San Francisco hotel features 361 maritime-themed guest rooms, many offering views of San Francisco Bay and the Golden Gate Bridge. The property's centerpiece is 'The Yard,' an 8000-square-foot outdoor lounge with fire pits, giant games like Connect Four and Jenga, and a sculptural water fountain. The 805-square-foot indoor game room includes pool tables, ping pong, and shuffleboard along with interactive art installations. A vintage food truck serves California craft beers and local wines. Designed with recycled shipping containers and upcycled nautical materials, Hotel Zephyr stands three blocks from the Powell-Mason cable car terminus and four minutes' walk from Pier 39's dining and attractions. A 10-minute streetcar ride connects guests to the Embarcadero and Ferry Building Farmers Market.

Pros

Maritime-themed design incorporates authentic recycled shipping containers and waterfront materials

The 8000-square-foot outdoor yard features unique entertainment options including life-sized games

Literary quotes from Moby Dick decorate the elevator interiors

On-site food truck offers local craft beers and California wines

Cons

Three-block walk required to reach the cable car terminus

Some guest rooms lack Bay views

“The nautical theme extends beyond décor; it shapes a playful, social atmosphere, especially in the outdoor area. Its location places guests steps from Fisherman's Wharf and Pier 39, with walkable access to the area's attractions. Rooms are designed for comfort and convenience, which makes it a smart choice for families.”

I recently stayed at this hotel for a trip to San Francisco, and the experience was a mixed bag. The location is absolutely fantastic, just moments away from Pier 39 and Fisherman's Wharf, making it easy to explore the area. The atmosphere is lively and fun, which I really enjoyed. However, I had some issues with my room being small and could have done without the high parking fee. Despite these drawbacks, overall, it was a decent stay.

Rooms
6.0
The room was very small, and I felt cramped during my stay. To make matters worse, the balcony wasn't as spacious as I'd hoped, but at least it allowed for some fresh air.
Service
9.0
The staff was excellent and went out of their way to help us throughout our stay. They were attentive and friendly, which definitely enhanced the experience.
Location
10.0
The location is incredible, just a short walk from Pier 39 and Fisherman's Wharf, making it super convenient for sightseeing and dining out.
Dining
7.0
While I appreciated having options nearby for meals, the in-house dining felt pricey for what was offered.
Facilities
7.0
The facilities had a cool vibe, especially the courtyard area with games and fire pits. However, I found parking quite costly at $60 per day, which felt excessive.
