"Gorgeous nautical hotel in ideal Fisherman's Wharf location."
Overall Score4.5/ 5
The Argonaut is a bold, highly coveted property right on the main walk of Fisherman's Wharf. It has a perfect nautical Americana theme, somehow managing to be both imposing (it is located in a historic warehouse and makes use of the exposed brick and wooden beams) and relaxing (lots of bright, open spaces and calming blue tones). The sleeping rooms are spacious and very bright/airy, with lovely views. You definitely get the sense that you are in a hotel right on the water, which feels very much like vacation. If you are interested in Fisherman's Wharf, the location could not be more perfect and with the assistance of the cable cars, it is easy to visit other tourist attractions as well. The meeting spaces are very well styled as well, really playing up the dark blues and wooden beams, although they are not as bright/airy/beachy as the sleeping rooms are a bit heavier in demeanor. I loved this property as soon as I walked in and would recommend it to any group. They offer a complimentary nightly wine hour and are pet friendly (not just tolerant, but actually friendly). They also have a fun seafood restaurant attached to the hotel, not that you'll be short of dining options surrounding the property.

Verified Reviews of Argonaut Hotel
Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently: "Great Hotel, Staff, Location, Breakfast!"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
My wife and I found the hotel to be charming and so accessible either to the Fisherman's Wharf side or to head towards the Golden Gate Bridge and a quieter San Francisco experience. For a Warriors game we use public transportation for free and got there quite easily. The breakfast was excellent. The hotel staff was extremely helpful in getting us anywhere we wanted to go and offering us tips on how to get there.
