Residences with kitchen in the former Ghirardelli chocolate factory, facing the bay.
The Fairmont Heritage Place Ghirardelli Square
From
1,093.953 €
“Apartments of 93 to 186 m² with Miele equipped kitchen and private terrace overlooking Alcatraz.”
The Fairmont Heritage Place Ghirardelli Square occupies the chocolate factory founded in 1852, converted into hotel residences on Fisherman's Wharf. We stay in self-contained apartments, not classic rooms: full kitchen, washing machine, separate living room, terraces with views over the bay and the Golden Gate. The red brick building retains its original metal beams, ceilings rise to 3.5 metres, the bay windows frame Alcatraz. The address suits long stays (a minimum of one week recommended) or families who want to cook, not travellers seeking palace service. The free private parking remains a rare luxury in San Francisco. From 1 094 € per night, we pay for the location and the space, not 24-hour room service ✨
Who is it for?
Who we recommend it to
We recommend these residences to families on extended stays (one week or more) who want the autonomy of an apartment with hotel services. The address also suits couples in their forties who prefer to cook their breakfasts and entertain in a living room rather than dine at the restaurant every evening. Business travellers on long assignments find the comfort of a real home, but those seeking palace concierge and permanent room service will be disappointed.
The building
Architecture and interiors
The Ghirardelli factory dates from 1852, converted into a commercial and residential complex in the 1960s. The Heritage Place residences occupy the upper floors of the red brick building, with conservation of the original metal structures and high industrial ceilings. Contemporary neutral interiors: light parquet, white lacquered kitchen, sober furniture without particular decorative signature. The apartments measure between 93 and 186 m², all with private terrace and panoramic bay windows.

The residences stand at Ghirardelli Square, north-east corner of Fisherman's Wharf, facing Aquatic Park. Pier 39 is a ten-minute walk east, the departure of ferries for Alcatraz five minutes away.
