Top Northern California Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

8/10 Good
"The location and staff are wonderful. The breakfast buffet was really busy, but nice to have. I would say my only critique is that you can kind of hear people walking on the floor above you due to the wood framing of the building (older building). But there was little to no other noise from the hallways. Would definitely stay here again."
