San Francisco is a city of neighborhoods and districts. While many are familiar with Union Square and Fisherman's Wharf, select travelers know and chose to encounter the hip and vibrant area known as South of Market. Occupying a prime piece of property in the bustling district is the 32-story InterContinental San Francisco, one of the city's newest luxury destinations. Its sleek façade is a head-turner but it is what awaits inside that really dazzles visitors. A collection of spectacular guest rooms are flanked with rich wood appointments, cool marble accents, high-tech gadgets, contemporary art, and banks of windows framing striking city and bay views.

I stayed here for 4-nights for a business conference that held here. TL;DR I enjoy the location, wonderful staffs, but the room needs an improvement. My detailed reviews below: 1) Location: The location is perfectly centralized. Plenty of dining place, a number of Starbucks if you need your caffeine fix, Mel’s Drive-In also just a few minutes walk. Montgomery Bart station also only 10-mins walk for direct access to the airport. Overall, I’m satisfied with the location. 2) Lobby/Reception: The lobby has decent size, pretty generic for a business hotel and honestly it lacks of a character. Thankfully the reception staffs are wonderful, including the gentlemen at the concierge. They’re genuinely nice and helpful. Check-in process was fast and efficient. I was a bit unsatisfied with the room that they gave me in the first place, some cleanliness as well privacy issue (the window is directly facing to an office building across), however, they managed to amend this and relocate me to another room which I appreciate. 3) Room: I think this is the weakest point here. The deluxe room is big, but the interior is just plain boring and has no character at all. Also the bed is too soft, not firm enough to support my back so I always end up sinking each time I woke up in the morning. The fabric sofa in the corner definitely needs a clean up. The room has Keurig coffee machine which is good. Bathroom has decent lighting. I do like the bathroom amenities offered which smells good. Sadly the shower pressure could’ve been better. 4) Other aspects: I didn’t try all the facilities, because mostly I sit in the meeting rooms in the hotel which I found quite decent. Wi-Fi also has decent speed regardless there were many people accessing them. The main selling point for this hotel is the service, all staffs here are super friendly and helpful. My daily housekeeping request also honored and I always found my room is already refreshed each time I coming back. Overall, it’s a good business hotel. Location and service are their main selling point. However, I still think the management can improve the room condition as it’s too generic and boring. I also wish the bed can be more firm. Anyway, you can’t go wrong with this hotel.

Stayed a total of about two months over past year in multiple stays. Nice hotel and more modern than Mark Hopkins. Good lounge. Location dicey, depending which direction you walk in. Has been my go-to hotel in San Francisco. However, I'll never stay again since they started to charge an amenity fee. I don't do hotels that engage in that sleazy practice. Just not something that honorable business do.

I stayed here as part of a conference block during a conference at Moscone. From a location perspective, it can't be beat if you need to go to Moscone West. I stayed here once before many years ago, but I didn't remember a ton about it. I'm in town often for conferences at Moscone, so I've met friends here for drinks or hung out in their lobby area several times. My room was amazing. I had a king suite and it was gigantic. I had a full bathtub and shower, two sitting chairs, and a long area that served as desk, dresser, fridge and coffee station. The only thing I can think of that needed a tweak was a towel bar on the bathroom by the sink. Note the do not disturb sign is a switch. I didn't switch it on when I arrived and staff almost walked in on my. To be fair, they rang the doorbell, but I didn't know what it was. Overall, I have no complaints about my stay here. I didn't dine here at all, but I would expect hotel prices. I would definitely stay here again. I can't comment on the regular rates, but as part of a conference block it was a steal.

Staff in restaurant and bar shine . Bur rest of staff was ok... Door men don't open. Door for you. Tv's don't work food was just ok.. but bar drinks were great! And staff at the restaurant are nice and Amdy is a great manager. He will go out his way to ensure you happiness if within his power.

Fantastic rooms with amentities and pool with a great lobby. Friendly staff and good gift shop. Gym was enough for a few days. Bar was good but a little pricey. Didn't use the breakfast buffet as it wasn't advertise anywhere so just be aware there is one.
