Gotta Getaway? Experience Movie Magic At Hotel Bijou In San Francisco!
Posted in: Uncategorized  | San Francisco is truly an international city with a large variety of places, things and events to offer. The people and city are interesting and diverse, ranging from unique to downright strange! My cousin recently flew in to visit me and discovered a quaint hotel that leans towards the unique side more than the downright strange side. The Hotel Bijou is located in the heart of Union Square and although the rooms are cozy, I ended up staying with her for 2 nights instead of going back to my own place. The theme is that of San Francisco movie magic. San Francisco is a city rich with culture and beauty which makes it an ideal place for film locations with classics like Vertigo and Basic Instinct on the list. Each adequately sized room is clean and kempt and named after a movie that has taken place in San Francisco. Still-frames of the specific movie decorate the rooms and other movie photos and paraphernalia are showcased in the hallways. The lobby resembles an old theater and furniture is European and comfortable with an antique feel. There is even a mini-theater complete with velvet curtains and plush red seats to the side of the lobby that shows double-features on a nightly basis. All the films shown are based in San Francisco, of course! The concierge is friendly and helpful and there is an unlimited supply of single serving raw almond packets that you can grab either on your way up to your room, or as a snack for later when you’re exploring the city. The location is ideal and after watching San Francisco-based films, you’ll be inspired to explore the city even more! There are numerous restaurants and eateries nearby, ranging in cuisine from fast-food burgers to Indian delicacies, as well as the huge Westfield mall. Other stores and boutiques are within walking distance, as well as a cable car stop and MUNI and Bart stations. So whether you’re making a stop in San Francisco for business and pleasure, be sure to check out the Hotel Bijou for a comfortable, affordable and unique experience!
