Opening in Spring 2026, The Huntington Hotel returns to Nob Hill, offering a world-class, five-star boutique experience rooted in San Francisco’s enduring legacy. The embodiment of an urban estate, The Huntington Hotel will usher in a new expression of luxury, offering an experience intimate in scale with a service style that is warm yet personal, unlike any other in the city. Revived by a partnership between San Francisco-based Flynn Properties and Highgate, a leading hospitality investment and management company, and reimagined by acclaimed creative director and designer Ken Fulk, The Huntington Hotel offers 143 well-appointed guest rooms and suites, the luxurious urban sanctuary Nob Hill Spa and the return of acclaimed The Big Four restaurant. The Huntington marks Ken Fulk’s first San Francisco hotel project and will bring discerning style and distinct Nob Hill spirit to a storied address.
“As a native San Franciscan, I’m proud to announce the next chapter of The Huntington,” commented Greg Flynn, Founder and President of Flynn Properties. “The hotel plays an integral role in the fabric of San Francisco, a place where locals gather and travelers from around the world experience the special nature of Nob Hill. We look forward to opening our doors and welcoming you all.”
In its new era, Ken Fulk’s design blends the intimacy of an ancestral home with the allure of an iconic, insider space. The Huntington Hotel celebrates its original Georgian architectural elegance—stately plasterwork ceilings, boiserie panels, and expansive light-filled windows—with enduring residential sensibility. Across 71 guest rooms and 72 suites–including a nearly 1500 square foot Penthouse, gracious layouts are perfectly appointed for a night, a week, or longer, and each room arrives with all the accompaniments to settle into easy and elegant Nob Hill living.
“The Huntington has a built-in legacy for gracious suites, a beloved restaurant and the most luxurious spa in town,” commented Ken Fulk. “Our goal is to return that gleam to our city’s crown jewel by reimagining it as a grand residence with destinations for repeat visitors and locals alike.”
A city luminary, The Big Four reclaims its roots and reputation for vibrant social dining. The officially unofficial club house of Nob Hill, The Big Four welcomes guests back in its 50th anniversary year as a genuine San Francisco institution, anchoring The Huntington with a menu that balances established favorites with newly imagined dishes. The 72-seat dining room and private dining space are updated with reverence, serving familiar flavors and beloved classics across three meals and in-room dining, setting the stage to cultivate connections and create community.
A natural harbor of calm above the bay, the exquisitely reimagined Nob Hill Spa returns as San Francisco’s most luxurious destination for living well. Spanning three levels, the refined urban sanctuary boasts an airy indoor pool with a city view, an outdoor terrace, 12 treatment rooms, saunas, steam rooms, relaxation lounge, and an 1,800square-foot fitness center outfitted with top-of-the-line resistance and cardio equipment and stretch studio. Nob Hill Spa offers an elegant pause from the city’s energy, a discreet sanctuary for intentional indulgence.
The Huntington Hotel celebrates its Nob Hill heritage with character and conviviality for visitors and neighbors alike. Every corner, from art and design to cuisine and cultural moments, reflects a city of depth, sophistication, and enduring style. Reawakened with the grace of the city’s own emblem, The Huntington stands as a symbol of San Francisco’s continual renewal and timeless spirit, welcoming guests to new vision for the city’s future.
