Where to Stay

San Francisco: The Clift Royal Sonesta, a Historic Union Square Gem

Some hotels are just places to sleep — and then there is The Clift Royal Sonesta, a San Francisco legend that has been wowing guests in the heart of Union Square for over a century. With its glamorous history, design-forward rooms, and one of the city’s most storied bars, this is the kind of stay you will be talking about long after checkout.

Location does not get better than this: the hotel sits at 495 Geary Street, right in Union Square, surrounded by world-class shopping, theaters, and galleries. Step outside and you are minutes from the cable cars, the Theater District, and some of the best dining in the city. Whether it is your first visit or your fiftieth, Union Square is the perfect home base.

This 4-star beauty delivers on the details. The famous Redwood Room bar — all redwood paneling and old-Hollywood glamour — is worth the trip alone. There is also a 24-hour fitness center for early risers, and pet-friendly rooms so your four-legged travel buddy can join the fun.

It is ideal for couples on a city getaway, design lovers, and anyone who wants a hotel with real personality and a century of stories behind its doors.
