This boutique hotel overlooks San Francisco Bay with its fleet of historic ships. Many of the 252 spacious guestrooms feature unobstructed views of Fisherman's Wharf, the San Francisco Bay and the city skyline and original exposed brick walls, large timbers or warehouse steel doors - all original to this historic 1907 building. Dining options include the Blue Mermaid Chowder House & Bar seafood restaurant. The lobby has a nautical feel, with a prominent fireplace in the lobby living room and a working astronomers clock above the mantel. The front desk resembles a steamer trunk and there are wooden plank floors reminiscent of a luxury ships deck and cruise ship-style chaise lounges lined up along one side of the living room.

Location: in the heart of the San Francisco Maritime Historical Park in Fishermans Wharf, 2 Km. from downtown.
