we are taking the thruway bus from Emeryville to fishermans wharf. We know the nearest stop to our hotel is the Ferry building, but what are the chances of us, kissy, kissy, nice mister busman, for a bigger than normal tip, being dropped out side the Aranout hotel itself, has anyone been dropped off outside any of the main hotels along the fishermans wharf strip

In mid-June, I was on the Am-bus from Oakland to San Francisco. The bus driver (without being asked) made the regular stops but also stopped at several hotels, including the Radisson-at-the Wharf. However, I did walk to the Pier 39 bus stop to board the bus to Emeryville. BTW, the bus doesn't pick up at the same place it discharges passengers at Pier 39. Found that out when a bus pulled up to discharge some passengers and the driver told us where the pick up stop was.
 
I took the Thruway bus from EMY to San Francisco, and the bus driver made several unscheduled stops at major hotels.
 
I don't want to say the driver won't do it but you can always ask.

Reason being is that the Argonaut is out near the Hyde Street cable car turnaround at least a half mile from the Fisherman's Wharf stop. From the wharf the bus usually back down the Embarcadero toward the Ferry Building. If the hotel was closer to Fisherman's Wharf I'd say it would be highly likely but due to the extra distance from the general route of the bus I'd say the driver probably won't.

However, it never hurts to ask.
 
thanks for the replys, we will ask the driver where the nearest hotel stop is to us, i think thE Radisson is very near to us, so if they do stop there, that would be fab, so once again, thank's for the info xx
