The story of Sir Francis Drake Hotel is Experience the Legend.

Few hotels in the country are as synonymous with the city they're in as Sir Francis Drake Hotel. Known by locals as "The Drake," the hotel defines San Francisco - exciting, romantic, and a little off-beat. Take in the ornate lobby, and the clang of the cable cars - it's all part of the legendary San Francisco experience. Thousands flock here to have their picture taken with the most photographed person in San Francisco, our famous Beefeater doorman, Tom Sweeney.

You may leave your heart in San Francisco, but you'll always know where to find it... at Sir Francis Drake Hotel.
