The Warwick Regis Hotel reflects perfectly San Francisco - historical, elegant, artsy and incredibly charming. The boutique hotel sits across the street from the famous Curran and ACT theaters, two blocks from high-end shops at Union Square and five blocks from Chinatown. Two blocks from the hotel at the TIX booth, theater buffs can bag half-priced, day-of-performance tickets to many of the area's major theaters.
Despite undergoing an extensive renovation in 2002, the 80-room Warwick maintained its classical look, which dates back to 1913. A silver-leaded dome with an antique chandelier, which hung in the chateau of the late designer Laura Ashley, highlights the lobby. The Warwick features complimentary coffee and tea service throughout the day and continental breakfasts of poached eggs and waffles each morning. The hotel's jewel-box, bistro, La Scene, offers special pre- and post-theater menus, live jazz, and bar service until midnight. The bistro has picked up kudos for its cuisine and ambience. Guests can surf the Internet via wireless access in the public areas and guestrooms.
Guestrooms and suites are decorated with French antiques, chandelier-style light fixtures, poster or partial-canopy California queen beds, vintage theatrical prints and Chinese nightstand lamps. The rooms also include twice-daily housekeeping and street or inner-courtyard views.
Vacationers coming to this mystical City by the Bay can stay at a typical hotel or go for the unique experience of a boutique hotel. If they chose the latter, the Warwick Regis Hotel will provide that experience.
