Hotel · Lower Nob Hill
Contemporary rooms in a storied getaway featuring free tea & coffee, plus a fitness room. Set among the steep streets of the posh Nob Hill area, this hotel's contemporary and baroque touches give a design-nod to its predecessor, which was featured in the Hitchcock classic 'Vertigo.' It’s a 9-minute walk from Union Square's shops, museums and eateries, and 2 blocks from several light-rail and bus stops. Chic rooms decorated in orange and white hues with movie-inspired wall art offer flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi, plus coffeemakers and minifridges. Free tea and coffee are available each morning in the lobby, where 'Vertigo' plays on a loop. There's also an on-site fitness room and a business center. Valet parking is available (fee).
