Hello, Thank you for sharing your detailed experience with us. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed a quiet and restful stay at the Argonaut. Our prime location at Fisherman's Wharf indeed provides a vibrant and bustling atmosphere, making it convenient for exploring the nearby attractions, restaurants, and shops. We appreciate your positive remarks about the charming, historic brick building and the nautical-themed interior of our rooms. As you mentioned, our hotel offers a variety of room categories. While our Courtyard rooms may lack exterior views, they are ideal for light sleepers, as they are fully insulated from outside city sounds, providing a peaceful and quiet environment. We hope to welcome you back to the Argonaut for another enjoyable stay in San Francisco. Warm regards, Tony Roumph Managing Director

Good Afternoon heaven0610 We greatly appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to give us a fantastic review of your stay. The Argonaut is in the center of all attractions here on the water front. Ghirardelli is a block away, Pier 39 is a moments away, the cable car turn is next to the hotel, both the Aquatic Park and Hyde Street Pier is across the street. We hope to see you come visit us again soon. Best Wishes, Keith Hotel Operations Manager
Makoto M, Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are happy you enjoyed our spacious room and your sleep was heavenly as we have some of the most luxurious linen and comfortable mattresses you will ever encounter. The Blue Mermaids’ chowder is definitely world renown there are also many other delicious sea food options for your pallet if you’re looking for something a little different. We hope to see you again in the future. Take care Keith Hotel Operations Manager
roykawakami, Many thanks for sharing your insights on Tripadvisor. Located in the historic Haslett Warehouse in Fisherman's Wharf, the Argonaut is a landmark built in 1907 of exposed brick, Douglas Fir beams and much seaside character; you feel as though you can almost reach out and touch the colorful Barbary Coast past here. We are happy that you enjoyed your stay with us and hope to see you again on your next visit to San Francisco! Kind regards, Stefan Area Managing Director
Tips in the US are high, especially compared to the UK. A good rule of thumb is to double the sales tax, which in San Francisco is 8%
Restaurants & coffee bars often add the tip on the bill without asking -15 to 20%
Even fast food joints expect a tip.
