Are You Hip Yet?

The Hotel Palomar, a Kimpton Hotel, is an artful urban retreat in the heart of downtown. Hidden five floors above the city hustle and bustle and just steps away from ever-busy Union Square, this Kimpton hotel is like a great painting waiting to be discovered by the discerning traveler.

The style of this San Francisco luxury hotel is contemporary but not trendy, with playful touches throughout. The decor invites closer inspection that reveals artful details, such as the lobby's stunning parquet floors reminiscent of the geometric drawings of M.C. Escher. The atmosphere recalls Paris of the 1930s, where artists and intellectuals chatted at sidewalk cafes in an imaginative city full of creative energy, just like modern day San Francisco.

Room Details

Inspired by French designer Jean Michael Frank, the decor of Hotel Palomar San Francisco is a mix of artistic styles: contemporary design that is at once playful and arresting, energetic yet composed. The result is a dazzling achievement of architecture and style that gives this San Francisco boutique hotel a warranted place in spirited San Francisco.

Guest rooms are available in three styles:
King Deluxe/Double Deluxe - 315 square feet with king bed or two double beds and interiorviews of Zen roof garden
Executive King - 350 square feet with king bed, exterior views and a sitting area

Wine & Dine

Highly regarded by many as the best San Francisco French restaurant, Fifth Floor Restaurant is quite literally on the fifth floor of Hotel Palomar, just a few blocks from the center of Union Square. Oozing with elegance, Fifth Floor's rich dining room is both hip and classic, a carefully-designed state of grace befitting this Union Square restaurant. Zebra-print carpeting sets off an urban ambiance, Frette linens envelop waiting tables, and handsome framed paintings adorn the lush walls, creating an atmosphere that is rivaled only by the food Fifth Floor serves.

For 2007 Fifth Floor was awarded 1 Star by the prestige Michelin Guide. The guide acknowledges the decor, location & food all complimenting the wait staff with their "flawless formal service." The guide also highlights Sommelier Emily Wines to help you choose among the 1,400 bottles on the award winning list."
