Hotel information

The Palace Hotel is a historic cornerstone of San Francisco, nestled within the beating heart of this great Californian city.

Unashamedly grandiose, The Palace oozes the sophisticated glamour of the early 20th century while also presenting itself as a thoroughly modern hotel, boasting a comprehensive range of facilities to satisfy today’s discerning travellers.

From the very moment you enter the lobby and immediately note the gleaming chandeliers, huge marble Romanesque columns and classic 1920’s curves, it’s clear that nothing about The Palace is understated; this is a hotel that takes great pride in its role as a city landmark.

Its carefully crafted character can be seen throughout, including the guestrooms which are contemporary, stylish spaces, with city views complementing the overall graceful ambience within. Even the swimming pool is a feast for the eyes, sprawled as it is beneath a sparkling glass dome, allowing natural light to stream through; ideal for a dip at any time of day.

With all of the must-see attractions on your doorstep, exploring San Francisco could not be any easier. Take a ride on a cable car, hit the shops in Union Square or pay a visit to the Museum of Modern Art; whatever the draw to San Francisco is for you, by choosing The Palace Hotel as your base, you will be sure to see the city at its very best.

Return to the hotel half way through the day to sample the famous afternoon tea, indulge in an aperitif in the early evening or opt for an exquisite meal to bring your day to a close.

A stay at The Palace is an all-encompassing experience that has been perfected, for your benefit, over the last 100 years.

Room Options

The Palace Hotel, San Francisco, is known – and loved – for its eclectic mix of luxury hotel rooms and suites. Many enjoy trademark 19^th century high ceilings as well as oversized windows, a fireplace in some and original features in others, though the décor is in fact decidedly modern throughout. Entry-level rooms can feel a little on the cosy side but still make great use of all available space, so happily fit in a king-size bed, walk-in rain shower (within their plush marble bathrooms), and other standards extras such as thick robes and slippers, a minibar, air-conditioning and flat-screen TV. Larger suites then feature a separate lounge, while throughout the categories you have a mix of views, either partially of the street, adjacent buildings or city skyline in the superior options.

Superior Room

These comfortable, modern 300sq ft rooms can happily accommodate one king-size or two double beds, as well as all other Palace amenities. You do get a lot of light through those large windows, but views can be a little limited.

Deluxe Room

Slightly larger at 330sq ft, these Deluxe Rooms are a great option that include all Palace extras and a better chance of street views too.

Grand Deluxe Room

Grand Deluxe Rooms are more spacious at 360sq ft, though the Palace Premier option is generally a cosier 300sq ft. Those with king-size beds often afford city and street views, while rooms with two doubles are more limited.

Restaurants & Bars

The Garden Court Restaurant & Lounge

The Palace Hotel’s Garden Court Restaurant and Lounge is surely one of the most impressive-looking restaurants in San Francisco, situated as it is within the property’s grand, pillared atrium under an iconic glass dome. The décor is splendid, though so too is the food, an upmarket take on typically San Franciscan cuisine, seafood and occasional influences from the south. For something a little lighter, head here for an afternoon tea of sandwiches and homemade canapes.

Breakfast
Lunch

Pied Piper

This moody, wood-clad restaurant and bar is the perfect cosy hideaway in the evening, serving pub-style bites such as gourmet burgers alongside an impressive wine, cocktail and whiskey menu. The interior of Pied Piper feel historic and ornate, but the atmosphere within is far more laidback.
