Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco at Embarcadero, known as the city’s top luxury boutique-style property near historic Jackson Square and the iconic Transamerica Pyramid, has been awarded two Michelin Keys by the Michelin Guide. This prestigious recognition, which celebrates the most distinctive and authentic travel experiences globally, acknowledges the hotel’s excellence in design, architecture, service, and character.

Being one of just 214 hotels recognized in the United States, and among a select few with a two-key rating in San Francisco, this honor underscores the exceptional guest experiences offered at Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco at Embarcadero.

“We are honoured to be recognized among an elite collection of hotels by the prestigious Michelin Guide,” notes Jason de Vries, General Manager of Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco at Embarcadero. “Similar to Michelin stars for restaurants, the Michelin Keys represent the pinnacle of excellence in the global hospitality industry. Like a haven in the sky, Four Seasons Hotel Embarcadero is a special property that affords a unique vantage point of the city and bay, featuring elegant modern design and a remarkable team dedicated to curating unforgettable stays and experiences for our guests.”

Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco at Embarcadero was evaluated in five categories: architecture and interior design, quality and consistency of service, overall personality and character, value for the price, and a significant contribution to the guest experience in a particular setting. The Michelin Guide’s Point Of View describes the hotel as follows: “There are still some places in San Francisco where a hoodie doesn’t quite cut it as formal wear. The second Four Seasons hotel in town is Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco at Embarcadero, and it occupies the top floors of the 345 California Center, once home to the Mandarin Oriental. In its newest incarnation it’s satisfyingly high-end and impressively full of modern and contemporary art — and the views of the near skyline and the distant Golden Gate Bridge are spectacular. Many of the iconic sights are close at hand, including the foodie destination that is the Ferry Building, and the hotel’s own flagship restaurant.”

To mark this prestigious accolade, Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco at Embarcadero currently presents a Stay Longer – Fourth Night Free promotion, enabling guests to enjoy the contemporary two-key Michelin Hotel with unmatched panoramic views of the city and the bay.
