My most vivid memory was leaving the hotel every morning and as I exited the smell of the sea and the crabs and other seafood being prepared for the day.It kick-started my senses and made each day a new adventure.Close to a variety of transportation I had no need for a rental car.I travelled all over the city on public transportation and it was ...

I recently stayed at the Argonaut during a vacation to San Fran. The location is fantastic, however, the hotel lacks amenities like vending machines. In addition, they have a happy hour only serving wine for an hour. That is great if you like wine, but i'm a beer drinker. The bed was terrible and hotel has plenty of extra costs if you are not careful, I.E. parking fee. I have stayed a Fairfield Marriotts that were nicer.

I came to the Argonaut for a business meeting and I enjoyed the hotel immensely. The lobby was beautiful and the water themed decor from the lovely ship to the deck chairs were unique and inviting.

The service was fantastic. Every question was answered with a smile and every request was accomodated. I just loved the doorman uniforms!

The location and building are very good - it is in a revamped part of the old fruit cannery. Only a stones-throw from all the action on Fishermans Wharf. Transport is excellent. One of the cable car lines end at the side of the building, and the tram service terminates just 2 blocks away.

I arrived at 10.30 pm after the dining room had closed, ...

Unknown to us was the $40 per night parking charge. Beware! It really did not make it a very good deal at all. Good location and a fine hotel otherwise

The Argonaut is a very cute and friendly hotel with goofy rooms shaped like ship cabins (long and narrow) but still very comfortable. Because of its location near the Wharf, the Argonaut does not really cater to business travelers. It's just a very nice tourist hotel. Nicer than most other hotels in that area.

However, on weekends, the ...

My husband and I stayed at the Argonaut for our honeymoon. The location is amazing, we were able to walk to everything we wanted to see. The bed was sooo comfortable and rooms are nicely decorated. The only bad thing about this hotel is the price. For people on budget, this hotel is not for you. However it was a wonderful place to stay for a special occasion.

We stayed in the Argonaut Hotel two nights on 8/24/07 and had a great experience! They took care of all of our needs with no complaints. Here’s the rundown:

Room
- Modestly-sized (average for most San Francisco hotel) but spectacular in design and layout with exposed brick walls, heavy wood beams and a cool nautical theme. My 7 year ...

Not only LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION but a super concierge that got us great reservations at first class, "non-touristy" restaurants. Spacious rooms, wine tasting every evening.
Everything from the lobby restrooms on down was very clean.(And I'm VERY picky about hotels being "sterile" clean.)
If you want to stay at Fisherman's Wharf, this is the hotel to call.
