InterContinental Mark Hopkins

Hotel Overview

A Historic Grandeur on the crest of Nob Hill. As splendid now as when it opened to great fanfare in 1926, The 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. This Gothic hulk of a building is named after Mark Hopkins, the Central Pacific railroad co-founder whose mansion previously stood here. Nearly every room has a stunning view. Enjoy the ultimate perch above the city and feel like a railroad tycoon. Just when you think you've seen the best of San Francisco's sights, the Top of the Mark will thrill you all over again. The legendary sky bar lays the city at your feet with near-360 degree vistas. Almost as famous as the view is the 100 Martinis menu, which features popular concoctions such as the Lychee Martini, the Lemon Drop and the 24 Karrot.
