Best time to Visit
Good time to visit
Average time to visit
San Francisco is a year-round destination but has a cool maritime climate. In the summer, the city’s famous fog rolls in mornings and evenings, creating a misty chill in the air. Spring sees the end of the rainy season, and the city’s pretty-in-pink cherry blossom trees dot the landscape. In Fall Indian Summer comes to San Francisco, bringing warm, dry days with plenty of sunshine. The very best time of year is August to October when temperatures are at their highest and days are often sunny.

Reviews
Greg Salmon (Staff)
Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco is in the perfect Location, two blocks away from Union Square, a leisurely ten-minute walk from the Embarcadero waterfront and just over the road from the cable car turn-around which allows you to get up/down Nob Hill without breaking a sweat. It is one of two 5-star hotels in the city which ensures you will receive exemplary service, premium amenities such as the Equinox fitness center/spa and a dcor throughout the entire building that will blow you away and make you feel at home in equal measures. To top things off, the MKT restaurant is outstanding and the Dungeness Crab Benedict is an absolute must!
