The largest of the meeting rooms is the splendid Empire Room, a 3,100-square foot venue with red draperies and glowing chandeliers, which comfortably accommodates up to 300 for a banquet and seats up to 220 school-room style. An especially opulent choice for groups of 100-200 is the 1800-square foot Franciscan Room, with its gold-embossed, 21-foot ceiling and Rococo architectural details. The room has its own adjoining reception area, the stately gold and white Windsor Room, featuring an elegant fireplace and crystal chandelier.

Ten smaller rooms can be used alone or in combination, providing a variety of choices for groups from 10 to 105. The Sir Francis Drake - A historic Union Square hotel near downtown San Francisco and Moscone Convention Center
