The Code family has been running the elegant Huntington Hotel for 3 generations since 1924. The “crown” atop Nob Hill offers not only an amazing view of downtown San Francisco, it also enjoys a wonderfully central location by Huntington Park and Grace Cathedral. Besides that, a stop of the famous cable car is just around the corner. The rooms have a modern classic design with fresh colors – a pleasant contrast to the elegant lobby with doorman, chandeliers, velvet chairs and fireplace. The Nob Hill Spa is also rather impressive. The large pool area with its view of San Francisco’s skyline is a tempting option for travellers needing a dose of exercise. Early risers might enjoy swimming a few laps in the morning dew. And afterwards it’s time for a good breakfast, served in the Big Four restaurant. Typically American, you will find all you need on the menu: from French Toast to granola. However, the dim lighting, the dark green leather interior and the historic city photographs on the wooden walls reminds us more of a place to enjoy a night-time drink at the bar. Nevertheless, those who desire an elegant, lavish stay in central San Francisco should find the Huntington more than fits the bill.
