                                   SAN FRANCISCO
The Marriott San Francisco Airport Hotel is widely regarded by many spotters as the best hotel for spotting at San Francisco. The hotel is just 1 mile from the airport but very close to Runway 01R and is linked with the airport by a free shuttle bus. When reserving this hotel ensure you ask for a room on a high floor overlooking the airport to get some fantastic views. A North facing room will offer views of Runway 28 which the "heavies" tend to use. A room at the Northwest corner of the hotel will give you excellent views of Runway 01R as well as Runway 28. The views of arriving and departing aircraft from the hotel car park are described as incredible. Also right by the hotel is Bayshore Park which is reported as being an excellent spotting area.
 
Location  ***  This hotel is in a fantastic location to see the vast majority of traffic at this busy airport with little or no problems.
 
Spotting  ***  Rooms on a high floor facing the airport in the Northwest corner, are the best rooms to ask for. If you get one of these then you won't be disappointed.
 
Photos    **   No reports of photo opportunities from the rooms however the car park offers great opportunities.
 
Value     ***   Twin rooms start at a typical price of £62 at weekends. This is great value considering the location.
