This is an outstanding small hotel, with many thoughtful touches, including a fireplace in the room, coffee and tea on each floor, a wine and cheese reception each night as well as a spectacular patio, with a fire pit for a chilly night and a spectacular view of San Francisco across the Bay. The staff members were nice and the location is right in the heart of Tiburon. This is a special hotel.

Had 3 night stay with another couple. Both rooms were so comfortable, cozy, and clean. Breakfast each morning delivered was such a luxury. Short walk down the hall to amazing view of SF and Angel Island. Fire pits kept us warm. Nancy and Tom were absolutely fabulous hosts at the front desk. Curteous, helpful, and charming. Oven baked cookies each night as well that Nancy made sure we had. Tom made it easy to take out the free bicycles. Location was right in the hear to Tiburon. Will definitely stay here again.

A hidden gem. Stay across the bay from SF on the waterfront! Take the ferry to SF and leave your car behind! Breakfast delivered to your room daily, wine and cheese 5 - 7 every evening as well as warm cookies served each night! Sit out back on the deck day and night (fire pits) with beautiful views across the San Francisco Bay. The staff are all very warm and welcoming!

My husband and I enjoyed our first night here on Saturday. I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn’t as busy as I thought it’d be for Valentines Weekend. We originally booked a King room, however the location of our room was right next to the outdoor dining of Sam’s cafe. We could hear lots of noise from the patrons downstairs, so the hotel receptionist found another room for us on the first floor with 2 queen beds. We didn’t mind as the room was bigger and more quiet. Our stay was exceptional—the wine and cheese happy hour from 5-7 was amazing. We took our wine to the top deck to watch the sunset. The complimentary room service breakfast was one of a kind, I’ve never had that before. We took the hotel bikes out for a cruise down the Old Rail Trail, what a treat. Can’t get any better than this location and hotel. Highly recommend

Waters Edge was lovely hotel with a mix of old and new. My favorite thing was the coffee bar open throughout the day with water and good coffee. Lots of restaurant options to walk to. The rooftop deck was really nice roo. Very relaxing and refreshing. The hotel room and bathroom were spacious too. The windows in our room actually opened. The only cons I would say are small bathroom sink and loud pipes during the day. At night, any noise from the street or building itself can be drowned out with low playing music. I would love to stay here again and would recommend to my friends and family too.

Gorgeous area, clean hotel, pleasant staff, nice/free breakfast, amazing views... I am totally staying here any time I come to the San Francisco area in the future. 10+ stars!!!

Waters Edge Hotel was clean and bright. Upon entering the hotel, we were greeted by a very personable front staff and just in time for the wine hour! The bed was incredibly comfortable, making it difficult to leave at times. The only downside was the noise level when having the door open outside coming from the restaurant below.

We loved our stay. The front desk was very accommodating and helpful when asked for tips on dining etc.. The rooms were cozy and clean and even had a fireplace which we took great advantage of. Breakfast was brought to our room which enabled us to enjoy more quality time together. The surrounding area has many places to shop or browse and the food at Bella Luna is fantastic. Overall, our stay was brief but very, very enjoyable and we plan on staying there again. I've tried hard to think of any negatives but I am unable to come up with any. If you are looking for an inexpensive (for the San Francisco area) romantic place to stay, with incredible views of San Francisco do yourself a favor and stay here!

3 star experience. This hotel is basic. Clearly it’s been around for a long time and they’ve tried to update it by whitewashing the rooms. Unfortunately the rooms have a bit of a prison cell feel about them (white and cold). Beds are comfy, bathroom very basic but clean. We had a room with a balcony - very small balcony - maybe 2 X 4”. Included continental breakfast which was really under par. On the bright side, it’s a great location, right in the heart of town. Great views of SF from the rear deck. I would choose to stay elsewhere in future.

We had a fabulous one-night stay at Water’s Edge. Our room was spacious and clean, the staff was all very friendly, and though our room did not have a water view, the view of SF and the bay from the large communal back deck was amazing! We also loved the evening wine and cheese reception (which we took to the back deck), and the breakfast delivered to our room at a time of our choosing for no additional fee was a much-appreciated added amenity. We will be back!

The room is much smaller than the one showed at your website. I reserved a luxury king size with more room to walk around besides the bed. Turn out to be getting a room with not much space. It was very deceptive and had a feeling of being cheated.

The hotel was clean, perfectly located, beautiful views of the bay from the second level deck and rooms were large with comfortable beds and pillows. Loved the daily breakfast served to our rooms, the wine reception each day and the freshly baked cookies each evening. The location was very convenient for catching the ferry to SF. Loved everything above the hotel and will stay there going forward whenever I'm in SF! Highly recommended!!

I absolutely loved this hotel. The staff is friendly and helpful. The location is perfection. Right by the water with gourgeous views of the city across. The small street has many restaurants and shops to enjoy. Love love this place. The wine hour every evening was wonderful and the highly baked cookies were the best treats. The whole place smelled chocolate chip cookies. What a treat. Will stay here again in a heartbeat. The best

My husband and I enjoyed our first night here on Saturday. I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn’t as busy as I thought it’d be for Valentines Weekend. We originally booked a King room, however the location of our room was right next to the outdoor dining of Sam’s cafe. We could hear lots of noise from the patrons downstairs, so the hotel receptionist found another room for us on the first floor with 2 queen beds. We didn’t mind as the room was bigger and more quiet. Our stay was exceptional—the wine and cheese happy hour from 5-7 was amazing. We took our wine to the top deck to watch the sunset. The complimentary room service breakfast was one of a kind, I’ve never had that before. We took the hotel bikes out for a cruise down the Old Rail Trail, what a treat. Can’t get any better than this location and hotel. Highly recommend

A perfect weekend getaway location - the staff are especially friendly and helpful, but not intrusive. The location is superb - lots of walkable dining options. Will definitely be coming back.

A wonderful stay at The Waters Edge. Comfortable and clean room with all the extras you expect and more. Coffee, tea and water available all day. Great choice of breakfast delivered to your door in the morning to eat in your room or on the lovely deck at the back of the hotel overlooking the yachts, the bay and San Fransisco in the distance. Every evening from 5 to 7 your are treated to a selection of wines and cheeses. We loved our stay, it’s a real home from home.

Great experience. Loved the fresh cookies, wine, and coffee that was offered. Especially loved that you had a decaf coffee option. The room was beautiful, the bed was very comfortable. The location is perfect. I would 10/10 stay there again. Special thank you to Nancy at the front desk. She was so pleasant and helpful.

What a lovely, small hotel right on the water, with outstanding views and patios! The service is phenomenal! A large Continental breakfast brought to your room every morning, wine and cheese in the afternoon, and warm chocolate chip cookies in the evening. Everyone is quick to accommodate and couldn’t be more friendly. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

A hidden gem. Stay across the bay from SF on the waterfront! Take the ferry to SF and leave your car behind! Breakfast delivered to your room daily, wine and cheese 5 - 7 every evening as well as warm cookies served each night! Sit out back on the deck day and night (fire pits) with beautiful views across the San Francisco Bay. The staff are all very warm and welcoming!

3 star experience. This hotel is basic. Clearly it’s been around for a long time and they’ve tried to update it by whitewashing the rooms. Unfortunately the rooms have a bit of a prison cell feel about them (white and cold). Beds are comfy, bathroom very basic but clean. We had a room with a balcony - very small balcony - maybe 2 X 4”. Included continental breakfast which was really under par. On the bright side, it’s a great location, right in the heart of town. Great views of SF from the rear deck. I would choose to stay elsewhere in future.
