San Francisco Marriott Marquis

Stylish Comfort in the Heart of San Francisco

Modern and upscale, the San Francisco Marriott Marquis is a sleek downtown hotel located next to the Moscone Convention Center. With a polished interior, contemporary rooms, and sweeping city views from select rooms, it offers a luxurious yet convenient base for exploring San Francisco’s vibrant music scene. Only a few blocks from Union Square and major cultural hotspots, you're never far from the action.

Each room features a flat-screen TV, mini-bar, and coffee and tea facilities, with air-conditioning to keep things cool after a night out. The on-site fitness center is a bonus if you're looking to recharge before your next concert night.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything, and this hotel nails it. You're just a short walk or ride from some of San Francisco’s top live music venues and nightlife. Despite the central setting, rooms are well-insulated so you can enjoy a quiet night’s rest after the show. With a 4:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM check-out, there’s enough flexibility to fit around your gig schedule. Late-night transport is readily available in this area, making post-concert travel seamless.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking to stay in the heart of the city
• Solo travelers ticking off a bucket-list artist
• Couples planning a fun weekend getaway
• Fans wanting a stylish but quiet post-show base
• Budget-conscious music lovers seeking value without sacrificing comfort

Food and Drink Options

Hungry after a late show? The on-site B55 Craft House and Kitchen serves breakfast and has a solid selection of drinks and bites. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the central location means late-night eateries are just steps away. And yes, breakfast is available—ideal for those slower mornings after a big night out.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, you’re in the thick of downtown’s entertainment scene. Local bars, lounges, and clubs are all within easy walking distance. Or, relax with a craft beer or cocktail at the hotel’s own bar before heading out.

Areas for Improvement

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to San Francisco for a concert, the San Francisco Marriott Marquis offers a stylish, central, and comfortable home base that keeps you close to the music—and the rest of the city.
