Sophisticated urban oasis with sweeping views in SoMa's Museum Row

Formerly known as the Argent, the Westin San Francisco Market Street has been rebranded over the course of the last decade. The result: a sophisticated, urban oasis in the middle of what locals call Museum row, a stretch that includes the Yerba Buena Center for the Performing Arts and the Contemporary Jewish Museum. Both the lobby and guest rooms are sleek and modern; art in public areas is from Roy Lichtenstein and other iconic artists. Ducca, the on-site restaurant, serves contemporary Northern Italian food and has a lively bar scene on weekends.

Highlights
  • Impressive array of public art by artists such as David Hockney and Roy Lichtenstein
  • Within walking distance of Moscone Convention Center
  • Cocktails and Italian cuisine at Ducca, the on-site restaurant
  • Complimentary guided walking tours
Rooms

Accommodations -- 676 rooms, including 24 suites -- feature sweeping city views and floor-to-ceiling windows through which to enjoy them. Rooms come standard with flat-screen televisions, signature Westin Heavenly beds, mini bars and in-room safes. Most of the corner units are suites.

Features

The Westin San Francisco Market Street abuts a public park that sits between San Francisco's Contemporary Jewish Museum and the Yerba Buena Center for the Performing Arts. The Moscone Convention Center is within walking distance, as well.

Grab a bite at Ducca, which specializes in Northern Italian cuisine and has a boisterous bar scene on weekend nights.

Perfect location for shopping

the hotel is located at the heart of city, there are lots of nice restaurants around, and especially is convenient for shopping! The room is clean, but a little bit small. it has a HUGE restroom though!

Disappointed

The staff is rude and do not know how to treat a hotel guest. There was more than one incidence that took place that has me extremely disappointed with this hotel. For example, the lady at the front desk didn’t think my husband and I could tell the difference between a king size and queen size bed as she tried to put us in a 1-queen size handicap room. We could not easily get an engineer to fix our TV, which did not work. Even housekeeping could not help me in retrieving a coat I had left in the handicap room this hotel initially tried to have us initially take. Lastly, I also noticed that the quality in the amenities at this hotel have gone down. They don’t give you the fancy amenities like sowing kits or q-tips; it’s just the basic shampoo and conditioner and cheap toilet paper that they have now. Other than that, the location is great.

Winter Break in SF

The hotel has a good location, the bed is comfortable, but besides these, everything is just average. Price is reasonable, given it is near union square in San Francisco.

Great Hotel Great Location Great Price

Just off the pounding of Market Street this is a great find of a hotel. Walking distance to the Financial district, walking distance to Union Square, and walking distance to the Embarcadero. Close to busses, muni and BART.

Pet Hotel and Overpriced Valet

When we arrived, they gave us a room on the 8th floor which we soon discovered was the "pet floor". There were dogs barking and our room smelled like urine. We complained and they did give us a nicer, bigger room on the 9th floor but nothing to write home about. Also, if you plan on parking an oversized vehicle, park in the lot across the street or Jessies garage behind the hotel. They charged us $71 to valet our truck for 12 hrs! Since it was over the holidays we had no other choice- all the other garages were closed. And it still took them almost an hour to retrieve it.
