“Embarcadero views, shaking lifts”
Four Seasons Hotel Embarcadero pairs stunning San Francisco views — Transamerica, Coit Tower, Alcatraz and the Golden Gate from room 4105 — with spacious comfortable rooms, a good breakfast opened by a gifted carrot-ginger juice, convenient dining and Chinatown nearby, and gracious valet staff who share tips. Two problems surface: a toilet occasionally splashes dirty water onto the seat, and a loyal Four Seasons guest reports no lobby, a shaking elevator that scared them at floor thirty-nine, rough renovation and unclean conditions — their most disappointing brand stay.
