The Clift Royal Sonesta Hotel, San Francisco is situated in a fantastically central location near Union Square, the shopping and theatre districts. It is also close the the many restaurants, museums and cable car lines in the city.

The best feature of this hotel isn't its fantastic location but it's the decor and atmosphere of the hotel. The hotel itself has gorgeous guest rooms that are well-equipped with all modern comforts. it is home to the famous Redwood room which is a fantastically atmospheric room with chic decor and clients. When we visited they had cool video potraits on the wall where the people looked still. However after 10 minutes you realised that the models were gradually moving their eyes. It was super cool!

February

"excellent"
"We had bright blue skies and full sun every day of the holiday. It was very cold in New York, Spring-like in San Francisco, beautiful in Lake Tahoe (up to 16 degrees C but still great skiing) and about 27-39 degree C. in Las Vegas. All of which was to be expected for each location but we were extremely lucky with the blue skies and full sun every day."
"dry and fine"

March

"Every kind of weather Experience in San Francisco but in general pleasant/mild 15-20s at times a biting wind, then rain, then heat. Take 3 layers to be safe but you only really need a t-shirt. The weather in San Francisco I couldn't predict."
