A short guide to: Financial District - Ferry Building

The bulls and bears of industry tread the streets of the Financial District, home to the city’s tallest buildings, including the iconic Transmerica Pyramid. The towers give way to The Embarcadero, the broad, palm-lined avenue that begins at the San Francisco Giant’s AT&T Park and ends at Fisherman’s Wharf. The road passes by the Ferry Building, a landmark transformed into an artisanal food market.

Best ocean view EVER

The Ferry Building has a Saturday morning Farmer's Market. A heaven for foodies! The Boulevard Restaurant, right across the street on the corner of Embarcadero & Mission is a new chic destination restaurant...great service.

This hotel made a business trip to San Francisco very enjoyable

This hotel has a great location, for both pleasure (on the waterfront) and business (close to the financial district). It is elegant (the lobby), trendy (the bar) and rational (the rooms). I particularly appreciated two fantastic features: free-of-charge internet access - a rare thing in hotels these days - and rooftop terraces, with awesome viewpoints and comfy chairs.

Fantastic End to Honeymoon in perfect SF hotel

Two tips here: firstly, the hotel has two private roof terraces overlooking the Embarcadero and the Bay Bridge - with brilliant views. You can take your own food and drink up to these terraces, so nip across to the farmers market in the Port Terminal oppoiste and pick up some food and a nice bottle of wine and enjoy some of the best views in SF. For dinner, don't overlook the hotel's own restaurant. We ate here on the last night of our honeymoon and food and service were both excellent.

Excellent Hotel Choice

We tried two excellent restaurants within walking distance of the hotel and would recommend both Shanghai 1930 and Boulevard.

Excellent staff service-felt like I was staying in an Inn.

This is a great location-right across the street from the bay bridge-looked at it each moring and evening-wonderful(expensive)restaurant across the street. Across the street from the market place-within walking distance to Chinatown and Fisherman's wharf(ok, wear your tennis shoes ladies if you decide to walk to this one). Don't miss going to Sausalito and Muir Woods-just a short drive away across the Golden Gate Bridge! Would definitely stay there again-nice staff!

A delightful hotel in San Francisco

As soon as I walked into our room I knew I had chosen well. We had a bay view room and the view was stupendous. The room itself was simple and uncluttered but very comfortable and luxurious. The bathroom was large and the shower perfect. The staff was unobtrusive but very friendly and helpful. Had breakfast in the Americana Restaurant in the hotel both mornings and enjoyed both the service and the food. Gets crazy busy in the evenings on the weekend though. Obviously a hot spot for locals. It also has a wonderful ouside seating area. I recommend this hotel highly. Although pricey, I consider the money well spent.

Excellent location and service

Hotel Vitale was an excellent choice for our San Francisco trip. The location near the market/ferry building was a plus over the weekend. The consierge was very helpful and we had excellent dining experiences all over the city as a result. I had a wonderful massage at the spa, but was dissapointed with the construction which made making an appointment a bit of an inconvenience (the spa was closed during some normal working hours.) The yoga class was a nice added bonus.

Loved it!!

I purchased this trip for my son's college graduation present. He and his girlfriend travel around the world but this was their first visit to San Fran. The hotel rolled out the red carpet for them and we can't say enough nice things about the quality of the room and service of the hotel staff. This impressed me greatly since they are young but know their hotels and we got a great rate through Expedia. The train station nearby was a big bonus.
