Villa Florence ReviewLocated a half-block south of Union Square, fronting the Powell Street cable car line, this seven-story hotel is in one of the liveliest sections of the city (no need to drive, 'cause you're already here). The Villa Florence provides guests with a taste of contemporary Italian decor with cherrywood furniture, plantation shutters, windows that actually open, and perks such as flatscreen TVs with DVD players and CD players. In late 2008, a major remodel was completed, which translated to an upgrade in amenities for all rooms and suites. You'll like the large, comfortable beds draped in down comforters with FeatherBorne Bed dressings, as well as such luxury touches as L'Occitane bath products and Frette bathrobes. The hotel's ground-floor restaurant, Kuleto's, is one of downtown's most bustling and stylish Italian restaurants. That and Bar Norcini wine bar help make the hotel a worthy contender among Union Square's boutique inns -- as if the location alone weren't reason enough to book a room.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
