Hotel Overview The Hotel Palomar is a sophisticated artful retreat in the heart
of downtown San Francisco. Hidden five floors above the city hustle
and bustle and just steps away from ever-busy SOMA district, this
Kimpton hotel is like a great painting waiting to be discovered by
the discerning traveler. The style of this San Francisco luxury
hotel is modern but not trendy, with playful touches throughout.
The d'ecor invites closer inspection that reveals artful details,
such as the lobby's stunning parquet floors reminiscent of the
geometric drawings of M.C. Escher.

Fifth Floor Restaurant
Highly regarded by many as the best San Francisco French
restaurant, Fifth Floor Restaurant is quite literally on the fifth
floor of Hotel Palomar, just a few blocks from the center of Union
Square. Oozing with elegance, Fifth Floor's rich dining room is
both hip and classic, a carefully-designed state of grace befitting
this Union Square restaurant. Zebra-print carpeting sets off an
urban ambiance, Frette linens envelop waiting tables, and handsome
framed paintings adorn the lush walls, creating an atmosphere that
is rivaled only by the food Fifth Floor serves.
