Location. Since opening its doors in 1913, the historic Best Western Hotel California has gracefully evolved into one of San Francisco's favorite theater-row properties. Frequented by vacationing Europeans, theater season-ticket holders and corporate travelers, this landmark boutique is in high demand. Centrally located, the Parisian-style Best Western Hotel California is within six blocks of the American Conservatory Theater, Curran Theater, Union Square, cable cars, Chinatown and the financial district. Guests arriving via San Francisco International Airport are 14 miles from the hotel.
Hotel Features. The completely smoke-free Best Western Hotel California was meticulously renovated in 2004 but retains turn-of-the-century charm as evidenced by the original black-and-white checkerboard marble floors in the lobby. Health-conscious diners can enjoy the Millennium, the hotel's gourmet vegetarian restaurant that serves savory vegetarian dishes such as parsnip flan and plantain torte. The restaurant décor is fashioned from primarily recycled materials and features an all-organic wine list. The hotel offers complimentary wine-and-cheese receptions each evening. Other amenities include discounted access to a fitness center located one block from the hotel, and complimentary Internet access at a terminal near the front desk.

Guestrooms. This property features 83 guestrooms enhanced by mahogany furnishings, double-pane windows, white plantation shutters and ceiling fans. Guestroom amenities include dial-up Internet access, safes, minibars and coffeemakers. The whimsical, California-themed guestrooms feature two-tone, understated décor, pillow-top mattresses, 400-thread count linens, circular ceiling murals and even thought-provoking wall inscriptions by famous poets, singers and writers.

Expert Tip. The Best Western Hotel California is located near the TIX booth that offers half-price, day-of-performance tickets for shows ranging from Broadway musicals to local productions.
