The Hotel Palomar is a lovely boutique hotel that is centrally located in San Francisco’s new trendy area, the SOMA (South of Market) district. The Palomar stands within walking distance of the Moscone Convention Center, Chinatown, the financial district, and the high-end shopping and entertainment of Union Square. This sophisticated urban sanctuary is tucked inside a historic 1907 building and offers the style of a boutique hotel in quiet seclusion, five floors above the traffic of nearby bustling Union Square. Guests check in on the ground floor and are whisked up to the fifth-floor living area where they can relax in the chic lounge and sip French wines. The celebrated Fifth Floor restaurant is also located upstairs and serves French cuisine. The Palomar features a state of the art 24-hour fitness room where guests can sweat any time of day. Complimentary car service to the financial district is perfect for business travelers. The 198 guest rooms feature funky signature leopard print carpeting, down comforters, and pillows, accented by a warm olive and brown color palette. The rooms come complete with CD players, bathrobes, and Kimpton signature Aveda Aromatherapy bath products. Minibars are stocked with gourmet treats, and TVs include the Yoga Channel (watch it while using a yoga basket available at check in). What’s more, the Palomar’s pooch packages include grooming and massage services, robes, leopard print beds, bottled water, treats, dining plates, collars, leashes, tags, doggie Altoids, and pick-up bags. A member of the Kimpton Hotel company, the Palomar presents an ambience and environment where entertainment moguls traveling incognito rub shoulders with weekend shoppers, conventioneers seeking sanctuary, and dogs that come along for the ride.

Zebra Striped Carpets and Vibrant Jewel Tones

Reviewed by MJB on May 09, 2006

MJB's rating:

"The place to stay for a crazy wild cat! Zebra striped carpets and vibrant jewel tones are what keeps the live wires who stay here going all night long. An excellent location just off Market Street, making it walking distance from all sorts of shopping, government buildings, Union Square, and tons of night life. Hotel Palomar is the place for hip and trendies to see and be seen. Be sure to take a short walk over to the Z Bar at the W Hotel for even more fun!"

A fine place to stay

Reviewed by mike on April 27, 2006

mike's rating:

"I’ve only stayed at the bigger downtown hotels in San Francisco but my stay at the Hotel Palomar has been my favorite. The staff is friendly, the rooms are a bit small but very comfortable and the location can’t be beat. The price was also very reasonable considering it’s location and quality. My only pet peeve was that although they offer free wireless Internet the service isn’t available in every room so I had to get a wired connection and sit at the small desk. If you like to use your laptop while sitting up in bed I suggest you ask the front desk to check that your room has wireless Internet in it."

"I have stayed at the Palomar a few times, and the hotel really does a great job of making you feel comfortable. The rooms have all the things you need, the hotel staff are always friendly, and the hotel is small enough they get to know your name and welcome you back each time you return. The locatin works great for work or vacation, and the real treat is restaurant, the 5th floor. Call in advance."
