Trouble is Brewing at the Hotel Frank








About a month ago, we stopped into two of the former Personality Hotels in San Francisco, which had been taken over by Provenance Hotels in mid-May.
As far as we could see, things seemed to be A-OK. Free WiFi was still in place and Provenance was working hard to get the renovations back on track at both the Hotel Vertigo and the …

The good news is, yes, the design-centric hotels seem to be carrying on business as usual, including continuing to offer free WiFia major concern of ours!


The personality-change was made mid-renovation, however, so several rooms at each hotel remain to be redone, and a few of the amenities are still not in place yet, including a restaurant at the Vertigo, and mini-bar options at either hotel. However, we were told that plans are in the works to get the renovations back underway in the next few months for completion early …

The Burritt Rooms history, like that of the hotel itself, dates back to 1910, when it was a hotel oflets just say, less reputable standards. These days, the hotel has been spruced up, and the second-floor bar is no exception, with the original crown moldings restored, exposed brick walls, whimsical crystal chandeliers, smoky mirrors, cozy corners for canoodling, and a menu of cocktails stocked with old classics and new twists.


Diedrich prepared two cocktails for us. The first was a Robbie Burns with scotch whisky, Benedictine liqueur, orange bitters and a …

Yes, Please: Mandarin Oriental San Francisco for $295 Over Labor Day Weekend







Obviously, the SF fog was “cooperating” the day the hotel took this pic.
One of our recurring problems in life is that our love for Mandarin Oriental Hotels cannot always be supported by our wobbling bank account. So whenever we see a deal at Mandarin, who are known for luxury amenities and unreal service, we try to jump on …

Does a Flirting Convention Mean More Sold-Out Rooms for the Hotel?







HotelChatter always has a funny way of showing up at hotels during interesting convention events. Remember our International Mister Leather run-in? Well, when one of our operatives was in at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco last week, they noticed this convention was taking place: Society of Single Professionals: Bay Area Flirting Convention.
Sadly, our operative was not able to get in …

Where to Stay in San Francisco for Pride Weekend








San Francisco Pride is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year on June 26-27, and its sponsor hotels across the city are throwing open their doors with deals that would make anyone proud.

Though many of the Pride festivities take place around the Castro, sometimes its good to get a little distance at the end of the day. Thats why the too-cool Clift Hotel right in the heart …
