About this property

Welcome to DoubleTree by Hilton San Francisco South Airport Blvd

Located at 275 S Airport Blvd in South San Francisco, DoubleTree by Hilton San Francisco South Airport Blvd offers an informal setting close to the South San Francisco Convention Center and just 4 miles from San Francisco International Airport. The hotel is conveniently placed for travelers needing easy airport access, with a free shuttle service that runs approximately every 45 minutes. Nearby attractions like Golden Gate Park and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art are within manageable driving distance, adding some recreational options beyond the immediate area.

The property provides practical amenities aimed at comfort and convenience, including free Wi-Fi, paid breakfast options, on-site parking, and air-conditioned rooms. Additional facilities include a fitness center, a restaurant and bar named The Landing Restaurant & Event Venue, and family-friendly and pet-friendly policies. The restaurant doubles as an event venue, suitable for banquets and weddings, adding versatility to the hotel’s offerings. However, guests should note there is no swimming pool or business center on site.

Guest reviews highlight clean and comfortable rooms with well-insulated walls that reduce airport noise, which can be a notable plus given the close proximity to the airport. The rooms are considered functional, if not luxurious, with some maintenance issues occasionally mentioned, such as low water pressure and thin walls affecting privacy. Service at the front desk generally receives positive remarks, and the signature warm chocolate chip walnut cookie remains a popular touch.

This hotel is practical for visitors arriving late or departing early from nearby airports, as well as those attending events at the convention center or needing straightforward accommodations near San Francisco. While the atmosphere is relaxed rather than upscale, the combination of location, accessible amenities, and shuttle service make it a reasonable choice for travelers prioritizing convenience over luxury.

Comfortable clean rooms with a great location near the airport. Even though it's near the airport there is no disturbance from flights or roadways. Rooms are well insulated. It has a small section for some basic foods as many places nearby shut early. The only thing that let me down was the shower pressure ! I know it's a small thing to nitpick on but every morning you want to have a quick shower it is just a huge let down... Maybe the management can look into it. Otherwise a great stay. Ps. Housekeeping was super on point. Always on time and good job done.

Pretty good location from the airport and a small drive to downtown SF. Nice rooms, very clean and comfy beds/pillows. The staff were helpful and very nice. Also the chocolate chip walnut cookie is a pretty awesome perk!

This hotel is very close to the airport, making it a convenient choice after my flight was canceled. The public areas are excellent—the restaurant, bar, and spacious lobby are great, and the airport shuttle is a big plus. However, I was disappointed with the cleanliness. We found a used dental floss pick and a necklace inside the sofa bed; the dental floss, in particular, was quite unhygienic. While the room is comfortable, housekeeping needs to be much more thorough. For me, cleanliness is the top priority. Also, I highly recommend checking the hair dryers. The one in our room fluctuated in power and even started smoking on two occasions. It felt like it was about to break or catch fire, which was quite scary.

Good overnight drop point before hitting SFO for an early morning flight. Nothing spectacular here, just a good clean room for the night. They have a restaurant for dinner (waay overpriced) and they open for breakfast at 6am. Benefit for us was their free shuttle to and from SFO. We BARTed in, picked up the shuttle to the hotel from the airport, and then used it again in the early morning to catch our flight.

Came here night before an early-morning flight. Rooms are clean & nicely designed. A few tiny maintenance issues (slow drain, broken USB charging port, loud-ish AC). Only larger concern is the paper-thin walls. I could hear my neighbors moving about in their room, coughing, & even opening the drapes.

This review is long overdue! A few weeks ago, while traveling through the area, we had a fantastic experience at the DoubleTree hotel. Cheryln, the front desk agent, was incredibly pleasant, welcoming, and very helpful. We are grateful for her commendable service! Thank you, Cheryln!

Yes they have an airport shuttle. That being said it runs every 45 or so minutes. The restaurant is good with good service, a decent selection of wine, beer, and cocktails. The rooms are functional for an airport hotel with a spacious bathroom.

If i have to recommend something i would say add usb c port will be nice touch to the room
