Hidden Gem: Hotel Rex San Francisco — Sweet Boutique

Hotel Rex San Francisco* – [Book early and Save 20%] Locals try to keep this one a secret for their friends because it has everything you need and the rates are less than the Hyatt around the block. A number of Hollywood producers and savvy travel writers I know say they won’t stay anywhere else in San Francisco, at least not on their own nickel. Hotel Rex is a boutique hotel with a European feel inspired by the arts and literary salons of 1930′s San Francisco. You’ll receive a free glass of wine every night at 5pm, and you can listen to live music during weekend happy hours. Guestrooms feature the work of local artisans. It’s 100% pet friendly (you may see the owner’s little pug sitting on a cushion in the lobby). Oh, and in case you were wondering, it’s located in the fashionable Union Square Shopping district within walking distance to restaurants, theaters, Coit Tower, Chinatown, and the Financial/Moscone Convention Center. TIP: Ask for a king suite at the back of the hotel where the room are bigger (a small child could sleep on the fold out couch) and the windows look out onto a hidden garden with a large avocado tree.
