Great hotel. I've visited multiple times over the past few months and am in SF regularly. It frustrating that management has been unresponsive to my efforts to establish a longer term consistent relationship. Regretfully I'm moving my stays to another 4 star hotel

The company I am employed with recently hosted an event at Hotel Nikko San Francisco, and the experience exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, the level of professionalism, organization, and genuine hospitality was outstanding. Yvette, our initial point of contact, made the entire planning process seamless and stress-free. She was responsive, thoughtful, and proactive every step of the way. The broader team, including Faina, William, Kim, Seda, and Robert, ensured every detail was handled with care and precision. Their coordination and attentiveness truly brought everything together. The property itself is beautiful, well-maintained, and perfectly suited for both corporate events and guest stays. The staff consistently went above and beyond to make sure our team felt supported throughout the entire experience.

I was here for just the one night. Every interaction with staff members was extremely pleasant. They have gym and wellness facilities for a city center property and the room was very spacious with a good shower. I will definitely be using again. Bravo.
