Moderate Deluxe European-style Heritage Hotel situated high above the city on Nob Hill, with magnificent views of Bay Area. Considered one of the finest San Francisco hotels, the InterContinental Mark Hopkins features 380 rooms, most with magnificent views of the City and Bay. The most splendidly located hotel in San Francisco, the hotel is situated at the crest of Nob Hill and at the crossing of 3 cable car lines. One of the most historic hotels in San Francisco, guests can easily walk to Union Square, Chinatown and a short ride to Fisherman's Wharf and the Golden Gate Bridge. Come see for yourself why these magnificent San Francisco accommodations are distinctive among San Francisco Luxury Hotels. As splendid now as when it opened to great fanfare in 1926, InterContinental Mark Hopkins San Francisco is one of the city’s finest hotels. Located at the crossing of three cable car lines, the venerable landmark is minutes from Union Square, Chinatown and the Financial District. Fisherman’s Wharf and the Golden Gate Bridge are short drives away. The hotel is home to the legendary sky-lounge, the Top of the Mark, offering wonderful bar bites and cocktails amidst a backdrop of expansive City and Bay views. The Nob Hill Club on the lobby level provides modern American dining using local farm-fresh ingredients, a wine bar highlighting local Californian wines, and an elegant and calm environment as the Club InterContinental lounge. The hotel complies with the IHG Clean Promise and Sharecare Verified by Forbes Travel Guide.

We booked, AGAIN, one of the most expensive suites in the hotel. It had no refrigerator, no coffee maker, nor mini-bar. It was like a Travel Lodge at $1,000 a night. There is something wrong with management at Intercontinental.

I chose this hotel among the IHG properties in San Francisco expecting the InterContinental standard and service. I have stayed with and worked for InterContinental before, so I am familiar with the level of quality the brand represents. While the building has a classic charm, the overall experience does not reflect InterContinental standards. The service felt no different from a Holiday Inn, which was very disappointing given the brand. The room condition is tired and lacks basic amenities. There were no slippers, and only one low-quality bathrobe was provided despite the reservation being for two guests. These are simple details that should be consistent across the brand. Unfortunately, this is the worst InterContinental stay I have experienced. I booked for three nights and this is only my first day. It is quite disappointing to realise I still have two more nights to go. I hope the hotel can review its standards to better align with what InterContinental guests expect.

I don't appreciate a $35 nightly fee fraudulently labelled as "Nob Hill Destination Fee". This is not a tax. This is not added by the City of San Francisco. This is a amenity fee to use WiFi, nothing more. It's blatantly dishonest.

Avoid this is a dump. Nice location. This is not even a two star hotel. No service. Nothing in the room. My sink didn’t even work.

I think it’s a little tired decor wise since we last stayed in 2022 , but it’s still a landmark hotel and as we were bringing the kids and grandchildren for Christmas, it was a perfect , family friendly spot , The rooms are well sized with all amenities, you have the “ Top Of the Mark “ lounge at the rooftop , and it’s about $10 down to Fisherman’s wharf in a cab ,. ( we even walked it one day .. the downhill bit ! ) I’d recommend as a safe , classic SF hotel
