Hotel Vitale The Experience Embarcadero, San Francisco
Hip and holistic, stylish yet accessible, the Hotel Vitale has been called the perfect hotel for the person who has outgrown the trendiness of the W, but isn't yet ready for the formality of the Four Seasons.
One of the things frequent guests remark about at this hotel is the little design details that they miss the first time they visit the hotel: the sprigs of lavender that sprout from the guest room doors, the lit-up river stones that are embedded in the bedside tables, the portraits of "American Dreamers" on the ceiling of the hotel's extremely popular restaurant and bar. The Vitale has so many cheerleaders because it is such a reflection of the ideal San Francisco experience: water views across the street, the historic Ferry Building with its Farmers Market and gourmet shops, and the multiple fun modes of transportation from cable cars to old trolley cars to bay ferries to BART right at the hotel's doorstep. Like its surroundings, the Vitale is a mixture of beauty and commerce on the Embarcadero in San Francisco's Financial District.
