With stunning architectural design and 552 rooms on just eight floors, this upscale landmark hotel built in 1875 is aptly named. It is located near Union Square’s luxury shopping and beside a BART station, and striking features include Maxfield Parrish’s Pied Piper painting in the bar, a gold atrium ceiling in the restaurant, and glass-roofed indoor pool. Ornate designs make for a unique business setting with a business center, 24-hour gym, and market. Elegant rooms feature antique touches, stylish mid-century furnishings, and tall ceilings; some suites have parlors with fireplaces. Breakfast, valet parking, and Wi-Fi cost extra. The nearby W San Francisco has a Bliss spa and hipper atmosphere, but no pool.
