Why book?
Self-described as design-forward, LUMA San Francisco embodies modern art from inside and out. With large-scale art installations throughout the hotel from renowned visual artist Jim Campbell and other talented creatives through to the large glass windows and mirrors wrapped around the hotel, it’s a voguish place to stay in the revitalized Mission Bay neighborhood. Head up to the 17th floor, and take in the incredible city skyline, along with craft cocktails and elevated South American street food plates at the rooftop lounge, Cavaña. It's no surprise that it’s been voted one of the best new hotels in San Francisco.
Set the scene
Set in Mission Bay, one of the safest neighborhoods in San Francisco, the whole city is on the doorstep of LUMA. With the Central Subway, you’re connected to the Convention Center, Union Square, and Chinatown on a quick metro ride. Attracting a variety of visitors to the Bay Area, from sports fans who can rest their head comfortably after a visit to the nearby Oracle Park or Chase Center to the modern traveler looking for innovative design that feels curated to art and culture lovers. There’s no one-type of vibe or guest found at LUMA.
The backstory
LUMA San Francisco made its debut in early 2022. As one of the city's first new builds in more than a decade and the first-ever hotel to grace the Mission Bay neighborhood, it made a significant mark on the city’s hotel scene. As a burgeoning boutique lifestyle brand, LUMA already has a presence in New York's Times Square, looking to bring their contemporary touch to other exciting cities.
The rooms
There is nothing small about this hotel. With nearly 300 contemporary guest rooms and suites in thoughtfully designed layouts, there’s something to suit each and every traveler. Floor to ceiling windows maximize stunning views of Oracle Park, the Bay and the city’s skyline. The cool neutral palette of the rooms are amplified by added pops of teal, inspired by the area’s history of salt ponds. Go big with the Penthouse Suite on the 16th floor. Boasting a fully separate living and dining space with connecting options for larger gatherings, it’s the ultimate room for groups or families looking for extra space. Otherwise, choose one of the premier King guest rooms, which have added luxuries of tall beds, seven-foot shower heads and extra tall ceilings – perfect for athletes or the sport-inspired.
Food and drink
Bringing together Pan-Latin cuisine, craft cocktails and aromatic coffee, there’s no reason to dine outside the hotel. Twyne Coffee Bar is the go-to place for sustainably sourced coffee from Sightglass Roasters along with mouth-watering baked goods from Neighbor Bakehouse. For an evening glass of sparkling, indulge in flavorful wines sourced from small vineyards at Trevino Wine Bar (closed Sundays). But the standout dining option is the 17th-floor rooftop lounge, Cavaña. Enjoy delectable Latin American bites and tantalizing cocktails with a stunning 180-degree view of the city skyline.
The neighborhood/area
Located in San Francisco’s burgeoning Mission Bay District, and a stone’s throw from Oracle Park makes it the perfect spot for travelers who want a multitude of options out their door.
The service
Bringing the latest in innovative hospitality to San Francisco, guests can enjoy the one-of-a-kind hotel feature: HENRY. As the hotel's robot concierge and digital curator, HENRY is available to fulfill any requests, from in-room dining to toiletries.
