The hotel

Just a pleasant stroll from the shops and entertainment at Pier 39, and the ferry to Alcatraz, the Riu Plaza Fisherman’s Wharf makes a stellar base to explore from. The hotel’s relaxed and friendly vibe is ideal after a day’s dim sum dining, cable car riding and selfie snapping. Your room is suitably airy and comfortable, you can kick back on the sun terrace by the outdoor heated pool, and, perhaps our favourite part, you can hangout by a crackling fire pit in the outdoor living area.

I brought friends to celebrate my birthday. I think they were a bit over dramatic with their concerns of the rooms but we had a fantastic time!

Did a quick duck over to The City to catch the Mary Cassat and Tamara de Lempicka and stayed at the Riu to grab great neighborhood seafood. Great property, people and location. Weather and mid mid-week low crowds contributed to an experience that we're bragging about back home

This was my first trip to San Francisco. The hotel accommodations were really good and the staff was very welcoming upon my arrival. The rooms were spacious and had been renovated which was nice. The location being so close to Pier 39 was a plus. Fire pits outside were great also.
