InterContinental Mark Hopkins

For generations, the InterContinental Mark Hopkins has been a symbol of elite San Francisco hospitality, commanding an unmatched location at the very peak of Nob Hill. With 380 guest rooms and suites, this historic property offers a perfect blend of substantial capacity and exclusive, high-touch service, making it a premier destination for high-level corporate meetings, incentive groups, and discerning business travelers. The hotel’s grand architecture and panoramic city views provide a prestigious backdrop for any event.

The hotel is a powerhouse for corporate functions, offering over 19,000 square feet of sophisticated and flexible event space. These 17 venues are steeped in history and elegance, providing a memorable alternative to standard conference rooms. The most celebrated of these is the Peacock Court Ballroom. This magnificent, 4,400-square-foot ballroom is a masterpiece of gold and ivory, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows and an opulent ambiance. It is an iconic setting for a gala, a major product launch, or a general session, accommodating up to 600 guests for a theater-style presentation or 420 for a formal banquet.

Adjacent to the Peacock Court is the 2,128-square-foot Room of the Dons, another historic ballroom. This space is distinguished by its seven-foot-high murals depicting early California history, offering a unique and artistic environment for a reception of 300 or a banquet for 220. These two main ballrooms can be combined for a sprawling event, accommodating receptions of up to 1,200 guests.

However, the hotel’s most famous venue is the legendary Top of the Mark, a breathtaking sky-lounge on the 19th floor. This 3,535-square-foot space offers 360-degree, floor-to-ceiling views of the San Francisco skyline, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Bay. While it operates as a world-renowned lounge, it is an unparalleled choice for private and semi-private group events. Hosting a welcome reception or a VIP corporate mixer at Top of the Mark provides an unforgettable experience that captures the essence of San Francisco. Full buy-outs of the lounge are available, offering exclusive access for up to 275 guests.

The hotel’s remaining event spaces are ideal for supporting a main conference. Multiple rooms, such as the California, Six Continents, and Florentine Rooms, offer natural light and are perfectly scaled for breakout sessions, executive board meetings, and private corporate dinners. A 24-hour business center, on-site presentation services, and a dedicated event catering team ensure every corporate need is met with precision.

The 380 guest rooms and suites are designed to provide a restful and productive environment for business travelers and group attendees. All rooms face outward, guaranteeing spectacular views of either the city skyline or the Bay. Each accommodation features classic, elegant furnishings, a dedicated workspace, high-speed internet access, and premium amenities. The 32 suites offer an elevated experience, with specialty suites providing apartment-style comforts like formal dining rooms, fireplaces, and, in some cases, private terraces. This room count is ideal for housing executive leadership, top performers on an incentive trip, or a mid-sized conference block where quality of experience is paramount.

Guests also have access to a state-of-the-art fitness center, concierge services to arrange group activities, and complimentary luxury car service to the Financial District and Union Square, a valuable amenity for business travelers on a tight schedule. Dining is anchored by the Nob Hill Club, offering a refined setting for meals, and the celebrated Top of the Mark for cocktails and appetizers. The hotel’s location at the intersection of three cable car lines provides guests with iconic access to the city’s most famous districts.
