Inn at the Presidio is the first hotel to open within San Francisco’s Presidio, a 1,500-acre national park site, in 2012. Built in 1903, the Classic Revival brick building blends history with city sophistication and natural beauty. This historic building features an expansive porch with rocking chairs, dining and living rooms, and a secluded backyard with a fire pit. The inn has been recognized by Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards as one of the city's top hotels and it is LEED Gold certified, receiving accolades for its sustainability in adaptive reuse. Set among other historic houses on a charming side street with adjacent hiking trails, guests have a prime location to explore San Francisco’s well-known attractions.

Discover

  • Discover the magnificent Inn at the Presidio, the first hotel to open in the Presidio of San Francisco. Admire the red brick Georgian Revival-style structure built in 1903, featuring white trim and front porches on two levels of the Inn.
  • Wander through the different wings of the inn, which are dedicated to the army officers who once lived inside the structure during its tenure as Pershing Hall, the Bachelor Officers’ Quarters.
  • Relax in the refurbished mess hall, which now serves as a community dining room and lounge area that offers a nightly wine and cheese reception.

Explore

  • Take in spectacular views of the San Francisco Bay from the top floor of the inn, and enjoy easy access to the Golden Gate Bridge.
  • Explore the Presidio Officers’ Club, San Francisco’s most historic building, that is now a museum and cultural center located adjacent to the Inn at the Presidio. The Officers’ Club once served as an exclusive gathering place for top army officials and their families.
  • Walk to the Fort Point National Historic Site, which was established in 1853 to defend the entire West Coast. Be sure to gaze upon its stunning architecture and amazing views of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Experience

  • Experience Andy Goldsworthy’s site-specific art installations throughout the Presidio, the largest collection of his works on public view in North America.
  • Stop by the Presidio Visitor Center and experience its interactive exhibits and learn more about the Presidio from its historians, park rangers, and park conservancy staff.
  • Tour the Arion Press, one of the last presses that creates limited-edition, museum-quality books mostly by hand. The staff create the books via traditional letterpress printing equipment that are set within a historic industrial building located in the Presidio.

Taste

  • Dine at Colibri, which pays homage to the Presidio’s Spanish and Mexican roots, and relax on one of the most sought after patios in San Francisco.
  • Head to Fisherman’s Wharf for a piping hot bowl of cioppino paired with local sourdough bread at the restaurant named after the dish, Cioppino’s.
  • Take a day trip to Napa and Sonoma wine regions, just a 90-minute scenic drive to the north.
