The Palace
Hotel, San Francisco is a Landmark Luxury property.
Built in 1875 to celebrate the West Coast boom, the Palace
Hotel, San Francisco is one of San Francisco's most treasured
landmarks. The hotel is located at the Montgomery BART Station
in downtown San Francisco, just blocks away from Union Square
and Chinatown. From the famed 1909 Maxfield Parrish mural
"The Pied Piper of Hamlin" in our Pied Piper Bar
to the grandeur of the Garden Court to the sky lit indoor
pool, the Palace Hotel captures a timeless sophistication
that is as distinct as it is inviting.
Historic
Streetcar Video: This is a historic San Francisco streetcar
film from April 1906, taken as the streetcar passes The Palace
Hotel (at the 3:00 mark of the 7:00 video) along Market Street.
The film was shot 4 days before the historic 1906 earthquake
and shipped to NY by train for processing.
