The Julia Morgan Ballroom at the Merchants Exchange is an exclusive, architectural gem located in the heart of San Francisco. Designed by Julia Morgan and Willis Polk in the Beaux Arts style of Hearst Castle, the Ballroom with adjoining Daniel Burnham Bar and Lounge, and additional meeting rooms, can easily accommodate any special event from an elegant formal wedding or holiday party to annual corporate sales events or training seminars.

The street-level entrance to the Merchants Exchange Building leads to a gorgeous barrel-vaulted lobby that sparkles with marble, gold leaf, and bronze. The Ballroom, Bar, Lounge and meeting rooms occupy the 15th floor where floor-to-ceiling arched windows provide majestic views of the heart of San Francisco's skyline. A 27-foot curved mahogany bar, a 20-foot fireplace of creamy stone, and a honey-combed ceiling of mahogany octagonals, are just a few of the features of this landmark locale.

Linda Hylen and Sue Meylan direct events at the Julia Morgan Ballroom. Linda is a veteran event specialist, previously serving for ten years as Event Director for the Kohl Mansion. Sue hails from Villa Montalvo, and specializes in corporate events.
