The U.S. National Park Service wants to add a luxury hotel to one of the world’s most famous islands: Alcatraz. Plans are to offer accommodations like the Ahwahnee Hotel in Yosemite National Park.

Alcatraz has a notorious reputation. Al Capone was the most infamous resident of the prison. Already the second most popular tourist attraction in San Francisco, next to the cable cars, people want to see more of the islands but are at the mercy of the ferry service schedule.

I can see Alcatraz Hotel, but have to expand Ferry service or OK private boats to use dock or add dock. Theyd have to add dock just to build hotel for consctruction crews, then use same dock for shuttleboats. Be a Unique experience. Wow. Sipping Napa wines in the Bay. & enjoying the food fare from SF alone. Isolation Gourmet cells? Saunas in the Yard. Massages, Facials??
