Hotel Adagio, a Joie de Vivre Boutique Hotel - San Francisco Hotels

Refreshing contemporary style in the former Shannon Court.. The Scene
Spanish Colonial Revival architecture provides a striking backdrop for this hotel's modern style. It underwent a six-month renovation and its airy, high-ceilinged lobby is now populated with islands of sleek sofas and chairs positioned for intimate conversation.

great modern hotel. we recently stayed at this hotel and were so pleasantly surprised! it's smaller, very cozy and right next to union square. there's a lot of attention to detail, from the furniture and light fixtures to the aveda bath products. the concierge was extremely helpful in getting us info and dinner reservations. we didn't eat at their restaurant, but it was packed every night and so was the adjoining bar. in fact, it was busier than the W bar or frisson. no a/c, but you're in san fran., it's cold here ANYWAYS. we'll definitely be back.…
