Restaurant needs a la carte options.

This hotel is mostly okay, but with a few minor tweaks would be great! I'm so glad they finally have a restaurant again. However, I am unsure how many business travelers need an 11-course tasting menu dinner every night. I can't believe that's all they offer! Yes, there are a lot of walkable restaurants in the neighborhood, which I did enjoy instead. When the weather is rainy, cold, and windy, the last thing I want to do is leave the hotel and would have liked to have an easy a la carte option at the hotel restaurant. Also, the rooms are not equipped with coffee/tea makers. I did ask and they brought me a tea kettle in the evening, which was very kind. Service was great and the bed was comfy. Easy parking, too.

Discerning Staff Action

I went with my daughter for business in Real Estate near by. The room was nice. Missing the door hanger for privacy and a robe in the room. There was a man talking very loudly in Spanish right outside our room for over an hour and I needed to call the front desk to ask for him to stop. That was not an acceptable situation. Worker should be aware of guests rooms and refrain from loudly talking in any language angrily interfering a paying guest stay. We even turned the TV on for 20 minutes to try and drown him out, but it was unsuccessful. We are regular guests that come for business in SF and that was the first time anything has even happened like this and it was discerning that the staff is not better educated on their location and conduct in the gorgeous hotel we pay over $400 a night to stay at.

wonderful hotel adjacent to Japantown, no gym

The good stuff: - Staff very friendly - Bed/linens seemed new, room very comfortable - Complimentary coffee in AM and happy hour in PM - Excellent location across street from Japantown shops and restaurants, and SFMuni bus line #2 stop Considerations: - breakfast in restaurant only, did not have opportunity to try it. - Restaurant is high end for dinner, I was going to look into it but it was closed on Mondays. - Picture in hotel description shows a small but functional gym space with treadmill and long rack of dumbbells. When I got there the "gym" looked like a former closet, only a few dumbbells and a few square feet of floor space. I would stay here again but plan to take a class at the nearby orange theory fitness.
