This is a 2 1/2 star property at best. It looks like a transformed Best Western or something equal in value. The rooms had old fixtures, 1970s beige desk phones, trim that didn’t match up, old sprinkler systems that didn’t fit into the ceiling etc. We were given one room that had a small door hanging from its hinges behind an outdated sofa. When I asked to move rooms, I was told all upper floor rooms had the same configuration. We were given a first floor room that at least had 2 large windows. The tv would not change stations and the toilet did not work properly. When I told the front desk, I was told you can only change rooms once. Will NEVER stay here again!!

No all that!

Hotel is in walking distance to wharf and room was clean. I only stayed one night so never used anything extra. Breakfast was average. I personally think the room was expensive for it’s condition and lack of products and services. Had a view of hvac system 😂.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at [Hotel Riu Fisherman’s Wharf and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I checked in, the friendly staff made me feel welcome and at home. The room was immaculately clean and comfortable, with all the amenities I needed for a relaxing stay. But what truly impressed me was the incredible breakfast buffet! Overall, I would highly recommend [Hotel Riu to anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable stay. The combination of friendly staff, clean rooms, and an amazing breakfast buffet makes it a true gem.
