Petite Auberge

San Francisco


Gracing the slope of Nob Hill is this unexpected French country inn – all sunshine yellow and floral prints, with vintage books flanking cozy gas fireplaces. This is one of downtown SF's most charming boutique stays, though some darker rooms overlook an alley where rubbish is collected (request a quiet room). Breakfast and afternoon wine are served fireside in the salon.
