Presented annually, the World Airport Awards are widely regarded as the most prestigious honors in the airport industry. The awards are based on the world’s largest global airport customer satisfaction survey and are conducted entirely independently, making this recognition especially meaningful.

Designed with the modern traveler in mind, the hotel features 351 soundproofed guestrooms, many with sweeping view of the runway or San Francisco Bay, allowing guests to rest comfortably while remaining connected to the vibrant energy of the airport and city. Guests can enjoy globally inspired cuisine at Quail & Crane, the hotel’s signature restaurant celebrating California’s diverse culinary influences and Asian flavors. The exclusive Grand Club, a private lounge with comfortable seating and panoramic views, is open 24 hours for guests to enjoy light refreshments throughout the day, Continental breakfast, evening hors d'oeuvres, an honor bar, and after dinner treats.
