It is situated near Oyster Point Marina, giving a beautiful view of the Bay and is in the near vicinity of San Francisco’s major financial and shopping districts. The Hilton Garden Inn is located at a distance of just 8 miles from the famous downtown shopping haunt of San Francisco — the Union Square area. The other nearby locations that can be reached merely on foot from the Hilton Garden Inn includes Fisherman’s Wharf and Pac Bell Park.

Since my trip was basically business oriented, I was looking for a place to stay that could provide a comforting environment for working late in the night after having spent the day making sales presentation. This is where the utility of Hilton Garden Inn comes to the fore — it is among the few hotels in this part of San Francisco that provides complimentary Internet access to its guests along with add-ons like free printing services that are very handy for business travelers.

During my short stay of about four days, the convenient access from the Hilton Garden Inn to the downtown area via the 24×7 availability of San Francisco’s complimentary BART shuttle was a big help. Besides the ease of commuting, it also helped to save upon a considerable amount on daily traveling expenses. Those who are planning to explore southern San Francisco over a short period to time should definitely use the services of the Hilton Garden Inn since other major local San Francisco attractions like the 3Com Park, the Bay Meadows Race Track, Golden Gate Bridge and the Oakland Coliseum too are located just minutes away from the Hilton Garden Inn and it really doesn’t hurt to catch a cab over such short distances.

What is even more impressive about the Hilton Garden Inn is the detail that has been taken to make each room appear like a luxury suite-cum-working station, as it is equipped with snug beds, large work-desks and a two-line phone access. Another aspect that impressed me at the Hilton Garden Inn was the extravagant buffet breakfast that was laid out each morning. And yes, the staff, though very disciplined, often lets you carry the food to your room to snack at your convenience!
