Terms of Use

About these terms
This website is operated by the Cornell Hotel de France, San Francisco. By using it you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.
Reservations
Rates, availability and offers shown here are indicative and are confirmed only when you complete a booking in the reservation system. Where a rate on this site and a rate in your confirmation differ, the confirmation is the binding one.
Room rates are quoted before the $20 per night amenity fee and 16.445% transient occupancy tax, both of which are stated on this site and applied at booking.
Offers are subject to availability and may not be combined unless we say so. Cancellation terms are set out at the time of booking.
Accuracy
We take care to keep this site accurate, but photographs, descriptions and distances are illustrative. This is a building from 1910 and no two rooms are identical — furnishings, layouts and outlooks vary. Nothing here forms part of a contract. If a particular detail matters to your stay, call us before booking and we will confirm it.
Every room has its own bathroom. Rooms are individually decorated and no two are alike, so the photographs show a representative room of that type rather than the exact one you will be given.
Third-party links
Where we link to another organisation — the booking engine, the parking garage, a transit operator — we do not control that site and are not responsible for its content or its handling of your data.
Intellectual property
The text, photography and design of this site belong to the Cornell Hotel de France and its licensors, except where credited otherwise. You may not reproduce them commercially without written permission.
Liability
This site is provided as it is. We do not exclude liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California.
