The Best Mid-Range Hotels
Laurel Inn, 444 Presidio Ave., Pacific Heights (tel. 800/552-8735 or 415/567-8467; www.thelaurelinn.com), may be off the beaten track, but it's one of the best affordable, fashionable hotels in the city. Just outside of the southern entrance to the Presidio in the midst of residential Presidio Heights, it's a chic motel with soothing, contemporary decor and equally calming prices.
Hotel Bohème, 444 Columbus Ave. (tel. 415/433-9111; www.hotelboheme.com), is the perfect mixture of art, style, class, romance, and location -- just steps from the sidewalk cafes of North Beach. If Bette Davis were alive today, this is where she'd stay.
Hotel Union Square, 114 Powell St. (tel. 415/397-3000; www.hotelunionsquare.com), has the perfect combination of history, style, and location. A $5 million dollar renovation in the spring of 2008 has melded contemporary elements with classic San Francisco features dating back from 1915.
Hotel Adagio, 550 Geary St., Union Square (tel. 800/228-8830 or 415/775-5000; www.thehoteladagio.com), is far more chic and hip than its category counterparts. The 1929 Spanish Revival building has sexy streamlined rooms swathed in rich shades of brown, and a very chic restaurant and bar on the ground level.
The Golden Gate Hotel, 775 Bush St. (tel. 800/835-1118 or 415/392-3702; www.goldengatehotel.com), receives nothing but kudos from satisfied guests. Just 2 blocks from Union Square, this 1913 Edwardian hotel is a real charmer and a fantastic value.
