About the Mark Hopkins InterContinental San Francisco

The Mark Hopkins InterContinental, a member of the prestigious InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG), is perched high on Hob Hill. It is a historic landmark in San Francisco dating back to an original Gothic-style palace residence of Mark Hopkins, the founder of the Central Pacific Railroad. Today, the Mark Hopkins InterContinental combines the elegance of a French Chateau with warm Spanish Renaissances. It’s an easy walk to Union Square, Chinatown, shopping, theater and some of the best dining in the city. At the intersection of three cable car lines, it’s a fun ride downhill to Fisherman’s Wharf and Ghirardelli Square. When it comes to class, comfort and service, this hotel is a Gold-Key and AAA Four-Diamond award winner.
