Palomar™ San Francisco, a Kimpton® Hotel property photo

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 decor invites closer inspection that reveals artful details and the atmosphere recalls Paris of the 1930s where artists and intellectuals chatted at sidewalk cafes in an imaginative city full of creative energy just like modern day San Francisco.

  • EarthCare Products: Comprehensive recycling facilities; Use of non-chemical cleaning products; use of recycled and natural paper compounds; organic coffee, tea, wine and snacks; low flow water systems (showers, faucets, and toilets); energy efficient lighting; soaps, shampoos, and conditioners made from socially and environmentally responsible companies; reusable mugs replacing plastic, styrofoam, and paper cups; and, signage and displays created to communicate EarthCare to the general public.

  • EarthCare Practices: Nationwide Eco Champions Organization of over 50 employees; formal back of house recycling programs; hosted public sustainability event “Come Get Dirty with Us;” weekly tips and environmental information through company newsletter; coat hangers recycled back to dry cleaning company; styrofoam and food packaging eliminated from back of house; towel and linen reuse program; environmental purchasing policy on internal on-line catalog; eWaste recycling program established; created best practices recommendations (over 30 practices and growing) for all hotels to incorporate over the lifetime of the program; and, unused amenities donated to local charities.

Since then, Kimpton hotels have been recognized by the California Environmental Protection Agency, San Francisco Green Business Program, American Hotel and Lodging Association, Massachusetts Good EarthKeeping, Salt Lake City e2 Sustainability Award, Portland BlueWorks and Outstanding Sustainable Style Achievement (OSSA).

Fifth Floor Restaurant photo

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.
