Mystic Hotel by Charlie Palmer
417 Stockton Street, San Francisco Bay Area, USA
Union Square
82 Rooms
Contemporary Classic & Lively
San Francisco’s hotel situation has always been a high-pressure one. These, collectively, are the busiest hotels in the country, and they try hard to distinguish themselves from the crowd. So it’s refreshing that Mystic Hotel manages to be so relaxed. This is a hotel owned by a celebrity chef, after all — Charlie Palmer of Aureole and Dry Creek Kitchen fame — but it doesn’t go in for big branding gestures. Instead it’s a sensitive renovation of a 1906 building, leaving as much of the original architectural personality in place as possible, and the vibe, when all is said and done, is more akin to a classic prewar San Francisco apartment than a typical boutique hotel.
In true SF style the rooms are definitely on the cozy side — if you’re craving space you’ll want the suites — but they’re long on character, and what they lack in flash they make up for in authenticity. The same can be said of Burritt Room + Tavern, the hotel’s restaurant, which is stylish in a dignified sort of way and serves craft cocktails and a menu of local, seasonal American fare, to the tune of live jazz six nights a week. As for location, it’s hard to imagine something more central than Mystic’s position, two blocks up Stockton from Union Square. From the financial district and the theatre district to Chinatown and the best of San Francisco’s shopping, there’s not much that isn’t walkably close. For feeling like a local, it’d be hard to beat.
