The commercial and cultural heart of the city, this Union Square address places you within one of San Francisco's most iconic landmarks. Recently refurbished from top to bottom, this striking dark grey building houses a chic and welcoming lobby with mid-century furniture and plenty of houseplants helping to lend a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Your room borrows from this stylish aesthetic, with soothing earth tones to help you drift off each night and gently wake every morning. You've got a coffee machine to fuel wake-ups ahead of a day of sightseeing, and while there's no kitchen, you're spoilt for choice when it comes to dining options in your vibrant locale. You'll find the city's entertainment district right on your doorstep. In addition to the gargantuan nine-storey Westfield mall, there are plenty of independent boutiques, fine-dining restaurants and vibrant bars lining the streets nearby. Meanwhile, the rest of this compact city is within easy reach – relive the Summer of Love in Haight-Ashbury, wander through historic Chinatown, grab a bite to eat at Fisherman's Wharf and catch the ferry over to the infamous Alcatraz island.
