This is a great place with great people. But a 5 star? Its tops of the 4 stars which means I had to give a 5 star we need a new standard of 5 star and 5 stars. JW Marriott top floor bedroom suite is 5 star/s so relative place and time. I'd stay there again. Safe, walk 16 minutes to the bay and never felt unsafe.

Service was great. Rooms seemed a bit dated compared to the other 5 star hotels I stay at. Bathroom could use an update. Especially shower. Hot water fluctuated. Lobby area was a bit smaller to entertain and relax. We choose to go out. But becareful walking some blocks as homeless population is high. Don't walk by tenderloin. Hotel showed us how to use waymo self driving car and got a discount

A truly memorable stay at home away from home!

I did not find it particularly memorable as a place, but it offers all of the amenities one could possibly want from an upscale chain hotel, and the conference I attended here was well served by such a space. I especially appreciate the room names for the conference, which were all themed around the geographic lo...
