The Palace Hotel is a luxury hotel located in the Financial District of San Francisco, California. Originally established in 1875, the current building was constructed in 1909 after the original structure was destroyed in the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. The hotel is operated by Marriott International as part of The Luxury Collection. The Palace Hotel features 556 guest rooms and suites, characterized by their high ceilings and historic architectural details. The property is particularly notable for its Garden Court, a grand dining room with an elaborate glass dome ceiling and Austrian crystal chandeliers, which was designated as a San Francisco Historical Landmark in 1969. Throughout its history, the Palace Hotel has hosted numerous distinguished guests, including royalty, heads of state, and celebrities. The hotel played a significant role in San Francisco’s history, serving as the location where President Warren G. Harding made his last public appearance before his death in 1923. The property underwent major renovations in 1989 and 2015, modernizing its amenities while preserving its historic character. The hotel maintains several dining establishments, including the Garden Court restaurant and the Pied Piper Bar, which features the famous Maxfield Parrish painting “The Pied Piper of Hamelin.”
