Sunday Business section, London Pink Pages, excerpted from "You can still leave your heart in San Francisco", by Jeff Mills, Travel Editor:
"One of the best San Francisco hotels is the Prescott Hotel at 545 Post Street, between Taylor and Mason Streets and no more than two minutes' walk from Union Square. A small, stylish boutique hotel managed by Kimpton Hotels, one of a dozen such properties in San Francisco developed by the company since its founder, Bill Kimpton, abandoned Wall Street for the hotel and restaurant business in 1981.
The Prescott follows the company's usual formula of taking an old building and converting it into a small, elegant town-house-style hotel - perfect if you prefer to stay in a property where the staff not only recognize your face but remember your name and how you like your morning coffee. Stay here and you will be well advised to pay a little extra and book a room on one of the Executive Club Level floors which come complete with complimentary continental breakfast and a hosted evening cocktail and appetizer reception on the fourth-floor Executive Club Level lounge.
Another advantage of staying here, in a city where top restaurants are booked up weeks in advance, is that one of the best, Postrio, is not only right next door and even has a door direct from the hotel's lobby, but guests at the Prescott receive preferential treatment when it comes to allocating tables for the evening. Just one of the services provided by the hotel's concierges designed to make life easier for business travelers."
