Description
Since it opened in 1926, the Mark Hopkins has been one of San Francisco’s premier hotels. Poised at the crest of Nob Hill, it rises nineteen stories and is as much a San Francisco icon as the cable cars that clang past its grand entrance. So it’s no surprise that it evokes lots of romance and history. During WWII, the Top of the Mark was the site of many farewell rendezvous where couples met for a last drink before the men shipped out. Wives and girlfriends stayed behind to watch from the top-story windows as their sweethearts’ ships slipped through the Golden Gate.
The Mark Hopkins is a perfect place for a romantic rendezvous—happily without a tearful farewell. Hold your event in the Room of the Dons, notable for its 26-foot ceiling and nine vibrant murals (by Maynard Dixon and Frank Van Sloun) depicting scenes from early California. Painted in a rich medley of reds, blues and browns against gold leaf, they were completed in 1926 for the hotel’s grand opening. The seven-foot-high murals, set off by the subtle cream-and-taupe walls and ceiling, create a colorful banner around the room’s perimeter. While you’re admiring their artistry, say your vows in front of a towering arched window, which is gracefully draped in silk brocade.
Receptions are often held in the Peacock Court, a light, palatial ballroom befitting a grand hotel. Complete with its own stage, its classical details include soft beige walls with delicately carved plaster moldings, arched windows draped in layers of teal and gold silk brocade, and a ceiling with intricate plaster work.
The Mark Hopkins has many smaller event rooms as well, which reflect the hotel’s grace and elegance and provide flexible event-planning options. Or for a world class treat, reserve the Top of the Mark, with its breathtaking 360-degree view of San Francisco and much of the Bay Area. A recent multi-million-dollar renovation has provided a 20-foot vaulted ceiling and a split level floor that promises unobstructed views from every seat. Literally one of the City’s high points, it’s an exceptional spot for receptions and business functions. Whatever type of event you have, the Mark Hopkins will leave you and your guests walking on air.
