From Nob Hill to the Financial District, explore the best of San Francisco

Nestled between the San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean, the city of San Francisco occupies a unique place in the American landscape. Following in the footsteps of late 19th century gold-hunting prospectors, modern fortune-seekers have solidly positioned the City by the Bay as the pre-eminent financial center of the western US. Those in search of cultural riches are also well rewarded by San Francisco’s diverse array of dining, sight-seeing and experiential things to do in San Francisco.

Located conveniently near the Nob Hill and Financial District neighborhoods, our Nob Hill hotel’s downtown location allows you to explore some of San Francisco’s most exciting destinations. Mostly destroyed by the 1906 earthquake and fire, Nob Hill is an affluent neighborhood, which is home to Grace Cathedral, the city’s largest house of worship. There are also several parks in Nob Hill, including Huntington Park and Washington & Hyde Mini Park.

Just steps from our luxury San Francisco hotel, the Financial District is home to a variety of corporate headquarters, banks, law firms and other businesses. The city’s festive New Year’s Eve celebration is held annually at the Financial District’s Justin Herman Plaza.
