Rosewood Hotels and Resorts has announced that it has been selected by F4 Transbay Partners (F4), a joint venture of Hines, the international real estate firm; Urban Pacific; and the Real Estate business within Goldman Sachs Asset Management, to manage Rosewood San Francisco, a new, ultra-luxury hotel set to open in 2026.
The hotel, situated in the burgeoning Transbay District, will offer easy access to the iconic landmarks, neighborhoods and attractions that make San Francisco one of the top international destinations, including the award-winning Salesforce Park, a 5.4-acre elevated outdoor oasis featuring a 1,000-person amphitheater, children’s play area, walking trails and interactive art installations.
Rosewood San Francisco will occupy 15 floors of the 61-story, approximately 1.1-million-square-foot building in the new center of the city. Designed by internationally acclaimed Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects, the 800-foot super-tall building is the last of greater downtown San Francisco’s skyscraper developments for the foreseeable future, and one of just three projects with a direct connection to the Salesforce Park via a pedestrian skybridge. In addition to the hotel, the tower will feature incomparable residences, office, retail spaces and an expansive pedestrian realm.
Sonia Cheng, Chief Executive Officer, Rosewood Hotel Group, said:
As one of the most dynamic and innovative cities in North America, San Francisco offers an eclectic mix of culture, cuisine, art, technology and adventure, and is an ideal destination for the Rosewood brand. We are thrilled to be a part of this revolutionary new development and look forward to providing our affluential explorers and San Franciscans alike with a stylish and refined new icon to enjoy for years to come.

The hotel will consist of 180 guest rooms and suites with locally inspired design by Joyce Wang Studio and stunning views of the surrounding city and adjacent park. Facilities will include a fully equipped fitness and movement studio featuring an indoor lap pool and Asaya, Rosewood’s forward-thinking wellness concept. Expansive event spaces, a signature indoor-outdoor restaurant, patisserie, living room and the Manor Club, the brand’s signature private lounge concept will also be present at the hotel.
Douglas Metzler, CEO West Region for Hines, said:
Rosewood is an ideal partner for this project and will create a one-of-a-kind destination for those who call the Bay Area home, as well as those who travel there for business and pleasure. The Rosewood collection represents the pinnacle of luxury hotels, inspired by the culture, history and geography of each locale, and we are thrilled to bring their unique vision to this iconic development in the Transbay District.
Rosewood San Francisco will join Rosewood’s two existing California properties including Rosewood Sand Hill in Menlo Park and Rosewood Miramar Beach in Montecito.
Meanwhile, Rosewood has announced that it will debut in Japan with a property in Miyakojima and will also open a hotel in Mexico City in 2024.
