Sostenibilidad

We designed 1 Hotel San Francisco to reflect the unique, iconic history of the city. From the 7,000 square feet of reclaimed barn wood used to create the lobby floor to the plant-based, handwoven rugs in each public space—we choose materials that divert waste, prevent the harvesting of virgin wood, cut carbon emissions, and spotlight artisan craftwork.

From the salvaged driftwood sculptures hanging in each bathroom to the decorative handwoven jute baskets in each guestroom, the incredible art pieces throughout 1 Hotel San Francisco reflect the city’s surroundings while spotlighting talented craftspeople around the world.

With intelligent energy management controls that utilize “smart” set-back thermostats, dual-glass windows, light-colored roofing, and intentional insulation, 1 Hotel San Francisco was thoughtfully designed to minimize energy consumption while combating the urban heat island effect. When you leave the property, explore the city through a number of green transportation options. Our central location promotes walkability while our Rad Power e-bikes and 100% electric Audi Q8 e-tron house cars allow you to explore with care.

Throughout this urban oasis, all faucets are equipped with low-flow fixtures and water-efficient filtration systems (LEED*), so you can drink up while minimizing single-use plastics. Our intentional shower timers help bring awareness to wasted water and serve as a reminder that no action is too small when it comes to water conservation.
 

Our menus celebrate San Francisco’s iconic culinary history, spotlighting local, fresh, sustainably-sourced ingredients and showcasing them in a conscious, creative way. From the local produce at the Lobby Farmstand to the dishes at Terrene that come straight from our rooftop chef’s garden and apiary—each bite boasts local flavors that aim to unite and inspire our guests and locals.

Whether it’s the post-consumer recycled paper hangers that hold your clothes, the soft sustainable linens you wake up in, the dark sky celebration you join, the sustainable supper you indulge in, or the natural earth-inspired aroma that surrounds you—mindful moments are waiting for you around every corner of this urban sanctuary. Each one of these thoughtful touches aims to evoke a sense of mindfulness and well-being while uplifting and celebrating the world around you.

Rooted in the spirit of mindful living, the mind and movement program at 1 Hotel San Francisco is all-encompassing, offering you an incredible chance to cultivate total wellness and realign your mind, body, and spirit. With intuitive nature-inspired treatments at Bamford, personalized workouts at The Field House, healthy dining at Terrene, and an array of excursions and adventures on and off property—cultivate wellness while exploring the city and nature from sunup to sundown.

Through our amazing partnerships with local non-profits such as St. Anthony’s, the Surfrider Foundation, City Surf Project, Friends of the Urban Forest, and beyond—we take pride in uplifting the vibrant community of San Francisco. From healthy waters to equitable food systems, we take a holistic, open-minded, and hands-on approach to generating positive change in the community.
 

Our people are our most precious assets, so it’s only natural that we keep diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) at the forefront of our hearts and minds at every step of our journey. We foster a culture of open-arms support that’s underscored by our values of love, honor, respect, delight, trust, and inclusion.
