The St. Regis San Francisco

The St. Regis San Francisco unites San Francisco’s historic Williams Building, a 40-story contemporary tower, and the Museum of the African Diaspora into an up-to-the minute interpretation of century-old St. Regis luxury. A fitting complement to the adjoining San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the hotel treats groups to cutting-edge refinement in the 20-person capacity Muse Boardroom, a soaring wall of glass in the 600-person capacity Gallery Ballroom, and a literal breath of fresh air on the 600-person capacity Yerba Buena Terrace.

Bespoke service attends to everything from business and social events to innovative dining at two restaurants, Vitrine and AEasy enough! Thanks Easyme, and visits to the pool, health club, and Remède Spa. Museum-quality commissioned art, natural light, and a modern 16-foot-long fireplace grace the lobby lounge. Outside, the doormen wear derby hats as a subtle nod to the masterpieces of surrealist art—including Magrittes—at the museum next door.

After a whirlwind day of meetings or sightseeing, the rooms’ state-of-the-art electronics control everything via touch screen phone on the nightstand—including butler call, drapes, temperature, lights, alarm clock, and do-not-disturb light. Guests’ bathrooms offer blissful retreats of marble detailing, deep soaking tubs, and suggestions from the butlers’ bath menu such as a Krug Champagne and Chocolate Extravagance or a Rose Petal Romance. For VIPs, suites wrap the tower’s corners with 711 to 3,200 square feet of view-filled living space. There are no reviews posted at this time. There are no packages available at this time.

With spring menus beginning to pop up at restaurants, it's a great time to visit some of your favorite spots to see what the chefs have got up their sleeves. Case in point: Ame (689 Mission at Third St., in the St. Regis Hotel), whose new menu is chock-full of surprises. The brainchild of Hiro Sone and Lissa Doumani (of Terra fame), Ame has been snapping up critical acclaim since it opened in 2005, with a recent booster shot of national recognition in the form of a gushing Wall Street Journal column. But enough about the press - it's food we want, and executive chef Greg Dunmore is happy to oblige. "We're really proud of our new green-tea soba noodle dish," he says. "It's got sea urchin sauce, pickled wasabi leaves, and purple shiso." He raves about an abalone dish: "We're the only place in town doing it. We've got these baby abalones from Hawaii. They're just beautiful. We're sauting them with shimeji mushrooms, asparagus, and sansho pepper sauce."
