NOB HILL INN, San Francisco

Located one block from a California Street cable-car stop and Grace Cathedral, this 3-star San Francisco hotel occupies an elegant Edwardian townhouse built in 1907. The 21-room property features apartment-style suites equipped with kitchenettes containing dishes, housewares, mini-refrigerators, microwaves, stovetops, coffee makers, and dishwashers. Each accommodation at Nob Hill Inn showcases hand-picked antique furnishings, including carved chairs, exotic wood-inlaid armoires, and four-poster or brass beds. The 322-square-foot standard rooms include queen beds and private bathrooms. Daily continental breakfast and afternoon tea with sherry are served in the parlor with sofa seating.
