Lobby at The Clift - Click to Enlarge Rising from the rubble of old San Francisco amid the futuristic fanfare of the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition, The Clift Hotel embodied both the grand tradition of a bygone age and the excitement of America's increasing world influence.

Over 80 years later, The Clift Hotel continues to serve as a beloved, internationally renowned landmark of San Francisco, embracing the grand traditions of the past while initiating unparalleled levels of service and comfort.

Our professional staff, some of whom have been with the hotel over 45 years, will cater to your every need with warmth and efficiency, allowing you to enjoy your visit to San Francisco.

The Clift's illustrious history includes many years as the only hotel in San Francisco judged worthy to receive top awards in the hospitality industry, setting the standards in the Bay area for luxurious accommodations, attentive, personalized service and overall excellence.

From the moment of your arrival, we take exceptional care to adapt to you and your lifestyle.

An interpreter, a freshly typed manuscript or reservations for dinner and the theater are just a phone call away.
