The Pickwick Hotel San Francisco - A Neo-Gothic landmark with Mediterranean dining near Moscone Convention Center
Located in Downtown San Francisco's SoMa district, this historic San Francisco hotel features 192 rooms across seven stories. The Pickwick Hotel, built in 1926, showcases Neo-Gothic architecture with a distinctive corner sign. Guests have access to three on-site dining venues, including SOMA Restaurant & Bar serving Mediterranean and Italian cuisine. Each room comes equipped with premium bedding, pillow menus, air conditioning, and complimentary WiFi. The property maintains a 24-hour business center, fitness facility, and three meeting rooms accommodating up to 80 people. The Pickwick sits adjacent to the Westfield Shopping Centre, housing Nordstrom, Bloomingdale's, and 170 boutique shops. Key attractions within three blocks include Union Square, Cable Cars, Moscone Convention Center, Yerba Buena Gardens, and the Museum of Modern Art. The Powell Street BART station stands two minutes away by foot.
Pros
Neo-Gothic architectural details with a Film-Noir style seven-story corner sign
Multilingual staff available 24 hours daily
No amenity fees when booking directly
Zipcars and City Share vehicles available in the hotel garage
Cons
Parking garage has a 4-foot height restriction
Some rooms face busy downtown thoroughfares
“The Pickwick's location hits a sweet spot, close to the Moscone Center and public transit, so it's a solid base for exploring the city. It carries the echoes of a bygone era, with its architecture hinting at a rich history, although a refresh would amplify its inherent charm. I think its appeal lies in offering a grounded, central experience without unnecessary frills, making it a practical choice.”

i love this hotel! the location is just super convenient to the bart station, i used it to get straight from the airport. i think the staff were nice and very accommodating. my room had a fridge and a keurig coffee pot, so useful for early mornings.

the staff was helpful. the rooms are clean and it felt cozy there. everything felt so homey to me. also, the hotel is beautiful.
there wasn't enough sockets in the room, so charging electronics was hard. the deposit they take seemed like a rip-off. it's still on my card even after a month, and there's deposits even for water.
