Hotel Adagio, Autograph Collection

Hotel Adagio, Autograph Collection occupies a Spanish Revival building at 550 Geary Street in San Francisco, California, in the Theater District on the western edge of Union Square. The location places the Geary and Curran theatres nearby, with Union Square itself, the Powell Street cable car line and the Powell Street BART and Muni station all within a short walk. The Tenderloin lies immediately to the west and Nob Hill rises to the north, so the street environment changes quickly from polished retail blocks to more everyday urban neighbourhoods. The building's Spanish Revival styling and boutique scale give it a character distinct from the large convention hotels in the city, and the interiors lean toward a warm, theatrical mood that fits the surrounding arts district. Guest rooms are offered as King, Queen and Suite categories, and as a member of Marriott's Autograph Collection the property aims for individual personality within a dependable brand framework. Amenities include a street-level restaurant, a bar, a fitness centre and free Wi-Fi. The on-site restaurant makes pre-theatre dinners easy, and a large number of other restaurants, from quick lunch counters to upscale dining, are within a few blocks. Service is generally described as attentive and boutique in scale, appealing to couples, theatre-goers and business travellers who prefer a smaller hotel with a defined sense of place over a high-rise tower. Rates typically run from about $180 to $380 per night depending on season and demand, and the hotel is rated around 4.3. Because the surrounding blocks are lively and sometimes noisy at night, guests who are sensitive to street sound may wish to request a room on an upper floor or away from Geary Street.
