Located in the heart of downtown, the Palace is within walking distance of many popular attractions, including Union Square, the Ferry Building, and the Embarcadero. Upon arrival, I was greeted by a friendly and welcoming staff, who made me feel right at home from the start.

One of the highlights of my stay at the Palace was dining at the Garden Court, with its soaring glass ceiling and stunning chandeliers. The afternoon tea service was a treat, and the formal dinner was a true dining experience. The Pied Piper Bar and Lounge were also great spots for a cocktail or light bite, with live music adding to the atmosphere.
I also took advantage of the hotel’s full-service spa, fitness center, and indoor pool during my stay, which were all top-notch. The concierge team was also a great resource, helping me plan my days in San Francisco and making recommendations for local attractions and restaurants.
