Prescott Hotel, a Kimpton Hotel

Chic design and a swank restaurant.. The Scene
This hot hotel opened in 1989 in conjunction with Wolfgang Puck's Postrio restaurant. It is perhaps one of the best projects of hotelier par excellence Bill Kimpton. A masculine blend of neoclassical and Empire architecture is complemented by cherry wood furnishings, a paisley Ralph Lauren look and an appealing color scheme of burgundy, teal and navy.

The Details
There is a members-only feeling to the 164 suites and smallish rooms, 82 of which comprises the Club Level (continental breakfast and cocktails are complimentary here).
