Hotel Majestic
$$-$$$, Pacific Heights
Fodor's Review:
Built in 1902 as a private residence, the five-story white Edwardian building became a residence club two years later (at one point screen stars Joan Fontaine and Olivia de Havilland lived here), and now has the distinction of being San Francisco's oldest continually operating hotel. Nicolas Cage, his uncle August Coppola, and the crew of Sweet November are among the more contemporary moviemakers who have enjoyed the elegant lobby's antique chandeliers, plush Victorian chairs, and hundreds of antiquarian French books. Most rooms have gas fireplaces, either a large, hand-painted, four-poster canopy bed or two-poster bonnet twin beds, and original claw-foot tubs. Renowned for visitations by its friendly ghost, its newly renovated Café Majestic, and a collection of rare, beautiful butterflies -- the largest in Northern California -- from Africa and New Guinea is displayed in the Avalon Bar, where you can order light fare from 4 PM to 10 PM.
