Transfer to San Francisco Airport with Booking: your opinions?

Caussat · 2025-01-15

Hi!

I booked my hotel on Booking (not a fan, but it was a particularly good deal) and Booking is offering me a bunch of extra services, including a private airport-to-hotel transfer for 41 €, which seems like a good deal based on my research for this kind of service.

Have any of you tried this kind of service offered by Booking? Any feedback would be great!

Thanks in advance.

Hi!

I booked my hotel on Booking (I’m not a fan, but the deal was particularly good) and Booking is offering me a bunch of extra services, including a private transfer from the airport to the hotel for 41 €, which seems like a good deal based on my research for this kind of service.

Have any of you had experience with this kind of service offered by Booking?

Thanks in advance.

I did this once with Booking for a private transfer. Never again. I now look elsewhere for a private car service or a taxi at the airport. At SFO, you really need to watch out for fake taxis without proper plates. They’re everywhere.

Hi, Personally, I often book a taxi through Booking and have never had any issues. Plus, it's flexible—you can change the day and time if needed. If there's a problem like no taxi due to their side, Booking refunds without any hassle.

Not on time at the agreed spot. Total nightmare.

So, it's really a 50/50 chance! I’ve experienced this in NY with a highly-rated company, and it’s true—it’s a pain when the driver doesn’t show up...

I also saw that you can book a ride in advance with Uber. Is that reliable for a pre-order?

Is the hotel near a BART station? If so, that's the simplest and most budget-friendly option
