Fun place to stay in downtown San Francisco. Close to the BART and streetcar. Lots of shopping and good food within a few blocks. Infact it is above a giant Old Navy! more

Kimpton Hotels has always chosen the most interesting and cultural neighborhoods to base their hotels. Here at the Palomar is based in the center of vibrant downtown San Francisco, yet still retains all the tranquil luxury a metropalitan hotel should, and aspires to.

I stayed in this hotel for 4 nights, in the executive King Room. The decor is very lovely and the bed comfortable. Our room was quiet. We loved the wine tasting and morning coffee. They also had complimentary ice cream in the afternoon but we weren't there in the day. I got a great deal for about $150 a night.... more

This hotel has it all...luxury and location! We were only there for 3 nights, but really hated to leave. Normally we stay on Powell street at the Villa Florence Hotel or in the financial district at the Omni Hotel. The Palomar blew them both out of the water with their quality of customer service, large quiet rooms and great location!... more

I'd just like to recommend the Hotel Palomar for anyone planning a trip to San Francisco, the location is amazing all local amenities to hand at your doorstep. From checking and throughout our stay the staff were helpful friendly and polite, nothing was too much trouble to them at all. It was my partners 40th Birthday when we were there... more

I just got back from a 3 day business trip in SFO. I was attending a conference at the Moscone center, and Pricelined a hotel. This was the hotel I got, and I think it was a lucky break. I don't know how I would have found this place otherwise. It turns out that this hotel is part of a... more

Our team at the Hotel Palomar and at Kimpton Hotels strives to be authentically unique with the flare of San Francisco. Also, do we not only accommodate man, but also his best friend, his fuzzy feline, or any of his domesticated animals here at the Hotel Palomar. As a guest, we want you to feel celebrated and relaxed by our...

This hotel more than lived up to the great reviews. Fantastic location within walking distance to the BART at Union Square. We arrived around noon after an overseas flight and an early check-in was not a problem. Room was beautifully decorated and beds v. comfortable; no noise issues on the 5th floor. Pleasantly surprised with the wine at happy hour... more

I just wanted to echo the positive sentiments expressed by prior reviewers because this hotel is a real find in San Francisco. We could not have felt more welcomed to the Palomar, from the moment we pulled up in front of the hotel. The guys who checked us in not only gave us a great corner room on a high... more

One thing I have to say about this property is that the pre-arrival service is fantastic. I received an email from the manager - okay, probably automated, but it was very welcoming. Also, I had to make a change to my reservation that was sure to cost me money, and DC at the Front Desk was a gem and waved... more

We take great pride in taking great care of our guests before during and after their stay. I will share your feedback with DC who is, as you mentioned, a gem here at the Palomar! We hope you will continue to stay with Hotel Palomar and Kimpton Hotels.

The Palomar was great for myself and a friend from Africa who arrived at SFO and wanted to shop, shop, shop! The room was large and the beds were great--our view was of the roof of The Container Store, which was a little weird, but since no one was shopping there at night it was very quiet and we both... more

Roland and the rest of the bar staff have many more delightful concoctions for future stays, along with a wonderful, newly rolled out, menu. We appreciate you feedback and will share your comments with our team.
