Destination of the Week: San Francisco
If you're heading to San Francisco for business, check out -- or better yet, in to -- the St. Regis, a Starwood property in the city's SoMa district. This blend of historic architecture and sleek high-rise is close to the Moscone Convention Center, with a high-design sensibility that meshes perfectly with its next-door neighbor, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. That artful vibe, along with high-end service, a lively bar scene and one of the city's best restaurants, have made it a destination for cutting-edge C-suite types -- Concierge.com reports that Google creators Sergey Brin and Larry Page keep weekend apartments in the residential portion that occupy the 22nd to the 40th floors. (See what's drawing the high-flyers by taking this photo tour of St. Regis' suites and guest rooms.) You won't have to go far to entertain clients in high-style -- in the historic Williams Building section of the lobby is the hotel's flagship restaurant, ame, from the culinary team behind the famed Terra Restaurant in St. Helena. Ame's menu -- a blend of seasonal New American cuisine, seafood (including a sashimi bar) -- is artfully complemented by a 300-bottle list of handcrafted wines and limited-edition sakes. If you're in the Bay Area simply for R&R, put the "Epicurean Invitation" offering on your Amex card and start each morning with a Bloody Mary Breakfast for two, then delve into your complementary leather-bound St. Regis Wine Journal to plan tastings for later in the day. Business travelers and sybaritic tourists alike can avail themselves of St. Regis' Signature Butler Service -- personalized attention that includes packing/unpacking, coffee/tea service, pressing, restaurant reservations, spa appointments, and more.
