About Grand Hyatt at SFO

Built in 1976 as a modernist hotel tower, the Grand Hyatt at SFO has served Bay Area travelers and event guests for nearly five decades.

Located directly adjacent to San Francisco International Airport, this 802-room property underwent substantial renovations to position itself as a full-service destination for corporate and social events.

The hotel's glass-and-steel architecture reflects the industrial design ethos of 1970s Silicon Valley while offering contemporary event spaces and luxury accommodations.

Great experience at the Grand Hyatt at SFO returning from our trip to Vietnam. We arrived late at night - 11PM - after a 12+ hour flight from Hong Kong. Access via the Airtram was easy and quick with all of our bags.
