Parc 55: The Heart of San Francisco

As Tony Bennett famously sings in San Francisco’s official ballad “I Left My Heart in San Francisco,” millions of tourists every year leave their hearts in the City by the Bay. Now, with business demands and meetings again on the rise, the Parc 55 – A Hilton Hotel – is asking visitors to “Parc Their Hearts” in San Francisco, in the very heart of the City, Union Square.  

San Francisco’s second-largest hotel, Parc 55, a Hilton Hotel, reopened its doors as business travel demands are on the rise and people continue to get back to travel.

“We are delighted to roll out our welcome mat for guests to ‘Parc’ their heart in San Francisco,” said Terry Lewis, complex general manager, Parc 55 & Hilton San Francisco Union Square Hotel. “Our heart never left San Francisco, and now we have yet more opportunities right in the heart of the city to welcome back leisure and business travelers alike.”

Parc 55 San Francisco, A Hilton Hotel is part of San Francisco’s world-class Union Square with its internationally recognized retail brands, restaurants, and Broadway-style theatre. Also nearby are such offerings as the Asian Art Museum and the Westfield Shopping Center.  Literally steps away from the entrance to the hotel are the world-famous landmark cable cars, which carry visitors to iconic destinations like Fisherman’s Wharf, Chinatown, Nob Hill, North Beach, and the famous Alcatraz Island Tours. 

The historic F-Line Trolleys pull up right in front of Parc 55, providing direct access to the famed LGBTQ Castro Neighborhood and the Embarcadero. Muni Metro is directly adjacent to the hotel at the Powell Street Station, providing easy access to all of San Francisco’s classic neighborhoods.  BART is also adjacent and offers direct in-terminal service to San Francisco International Airport.

Parc 55 San Francisco offers a sleek boutique hotel experience with spacious rooms, near Union Square, in the heart of downtown San Francisco. The hotel’s opening means that the contemporary on-site Cable 55 restaurant will also open its doors, offering tourists and residents a stylish venue and delicious change of pace from rich American classics by infusing them with a light, local flair. As a Surfrider Foundation Ocean Friendly Restaurant, Cable 55 is dedicated to sustainably serving guests.

Looking for a Thai food spot? You’re in luck! The modern hot spot, Kin Khao, is expected to open shortly after the hotel. This restaurant will serve delicious Thai food that stays true to its origin, made with seasonal produce and sustainably raised or caught meats and seafood.

The property also boasts a fitness center, access to the pool and spa at Hilton San Francisco Union Square, a FedEx Business Center, and an on-site gift shop.

Guests who desire a contactless arrival experience can check-in, choose their room, unlock their door with a Digital Key and check out using their mobile devices through the free Hilton Honors mobile app. This option is available for guests who book directly via the Honors app or at Hilton.com.
