“This landmark hotel, near Union Square, nods to San Francisco's history with sophisticated, modern design. I think its stylish vibe and central location make it a solid choice, especially for business or leisure travelers who want to be close to the action. The revamped rooms are comfortable, but it's the iconic Redwood Room bar and unique touches like on-site honey production that make this place memorable, in my opinion.”
