I would highly recommend this hotel. It is within walking distance of the waterfront and the gaslamp district. I stayed in a suite which was superb. Large windows and great views from the living room. The restaurant was also excellent. All staff were friendly and very helpful. I would return to this hotel without any reservation.

Good value close to Gaslight District in this remodelled hotel. Complimentary 1.5 h guided walk on Sats & Suns v good. Not a quiet hotel as no double glazing to keep out the traffic noise and rooms small, but you cant hear the trains all night unlike some very expensive hotels on the waterfront.
