Located just a block away from swanky Union Square and its wide range of shopping outlets, the Pan Pacific is one of San Francisco's premier hotels.   Officially classed as a four diamond under the American "AAA" ratings system, this hotel is a five-star by British standards.  Built in 1987, the Pan Pacific was totally renovated in 2004.

Within walking distance of four theatres, and a host of restaurants, the Pan Pacific is on Post Street - home to some of the world's most prestigious names in fashion.  The financial district is four blocks from the hotel.

A feature of the hotel is the cylindrical glass elevators which will whisk you up to the 21st floor skyline atrium with its centrepiece sculpture of dancers around a marble fountain.

An eclectic mixture of East-meets-West, this is reflected through the muted colours used throughout the hotel's 338 guest rooms and suites.  Rooms are a mixture of king rooms and "double-doubles".

Superior king rooms, and their slightly larger Deluxe king counterparts, measure a reasonable 33m² and 37m²   respectively. The Deluxe double-doubles do seem a little on the small size, as the rooms are the same size as the Deluxe kings, and the extra space used up by the beds is not taken into account. Largest of the guest rooms is the Luxury king room, at 43m².  Suites range from Junior through Pacific and Olympic to the largest of all, at up to 213m², the California suite.  

All rooms come with LCD TV, Bose radio, three telephones, in-room movies, internet access and in-room safe as standard. Bathrooms are all marble, and each has a separate dressing area. Many bathrooms contain an additional TV so you don't miss your favourite programme.  Pillows are custom made at the hotel, and guests are able to specify their preference from soft, hard, thick, thin or hypoallergenic.  Room service is 24-hour, as is an on-call butler, who can be summoned at the mere touch of a button. 

Dining

The Pan Pacific's restaurant, aptly named "Pacific" has become a renowned destination for an extra special dining experience.  To an accompaniment of soft piano music, the gentle splash of the fountain and a crackling fire, the 128-seater restaurant is a firm favourite among pre-theatre diners.  Adjacent to the Pacific restaurant, you will find the Pacific Bar, serving drinks and snacks.

The main restaurant opens for breakfast at 7.00am, serving until 10.30am on weekdays, and until 11.30am on weekends.  Lunch is served weekdays only from 11.30am to 2.30pm, with dinner served Tuesday-Friday 5.30pm to 9.30pm, and Saturdays from 5.30pm until 10.00pm.  The bar serves from 2.30pm until midnight.
