Fresh from a $16 million property renovation, the new Hotel Zoe San Francisco opened in San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf district. Part of the Noble House Hotels portfolio, the hotel occupies an enviable location close to Pier 39, North Beach, Coit Tower and Ghirardelli Square. A short walk brings guests to the Boardwalk with views of the bay and its iconic bridges, plus Alcatraz Island. It’s also one block from the Taylor Street Cable Car turnaround, meaning easy access to other city locations. On-property dining choices include signature Italian fare at Pescatore restaurant, where handmade pizzas cooked in a wood-burning oven are on the menu.

A towering 24-foot sculpture by artist Shawn Man Roland, commissioned for the hotel, greets guests while contemporary design reigns in the 221 guestrooms and suites, where furnishings draw from a yachting aesthetic. Sleek meeting and event spaces, full-service Bar Zoe and a communal seating area on the outdoor, artisan-styled courtyard are also features. Among the host of guest amenities are complimentary daily coffee service in the lobby 6–10 a.m., fully stocked minibars, complimentary daily newspapers and full access to the 24-hour health and fitness center across the street from the hotel. A fleet of bicycles equipped with baskets is also available for guest use, including two appropriately sized for children.
