The views are panoramic.
Whether you have a view of the Bay or the city, you will not be disappointed as any view of San Francisco is breathtaking. Try to book a room on a high floor facing the Bay where you’ll be afforded views of Alcatraz and Golden Gate Bridge.

Negative Reviews
negative:
The hotel does not guarantee a room with a balcony.
Because Bay views are best had with a balcony, be sure to request one when you book and then again, when you check in as the hotel does not guarantee this feature.
negative:
Very expensive, off-site parking.
Fairmont Heritage Place Ghirardelli Square does not offer on-site parking and the parking nearby is $80-$100 per day which is quite pricey.
negative:
You don’t get much time at the hotel.
With a late check-in time of 4:00 pm and early check-out time of 11:00 am, you don’t get to spend very much time in this very pricey hotel.
