Hotel Carlton - a Joie de Vivre Hotel

Located near Union Square and the Theater District, the Hotel Carlton has an international vintage style that offers an eclectic and relaxing haven. The charming public spaces showcase a cross-cultural design that incorporates one-of-a-kind objects and fascinating treasures. Hotel Carlton is also a non-smoking and pet-friendly hotel.

With a design that celebrates the various cultures of the world, San Francisco's Hotel Carlton and its very friendly staff live by the philosophy of "peace through travel." In other words, the better we understand other cultures around the world, the more likely we'll be able to co-exist on this planet harmoniously. The hotel has an eclectic and international style of design including valuable art photos on the wall from the American Himalayan Foundation. San Francisco's Hotel Carlton is certified Green hotel by the City of San Francisco which means that this hotel attracts travelers who appreciate the socially responsible mission of the hotel.

Each of our guest rooms offers a soft palette of soothing tones such as light, breezy blue and cashmere cream, punctuated by touches of glowing colors like saffron and a cheerful persimmon. Another cherished facet of this quintessential San Francisco hotel experience is the striking views. The Hotel Carlton isn't flanked by adjoining buildings (a rarity in this district of San Francisco). The majority of rooms look out on an expansive, unobstructed view. All guestrooms include complimentary wireless high speed Internet access, in-room laptop safe, marble topped writing desk, telephone with voicemail, coffee maker, ceiling fan, cable TV, CD player that is MP3 compatible, iron and board and hair dryer.
