San Francisco - Parc 55 or Hotel G
 
My fiance and I are going to Sonoma and San Francisco in September. I realize now this is high season so hotel prices are pretty high. I'd rather spend the money on eating and drinking but don't want to stay in a dump. I've found rates around $200 for both the Parc 55 Wyndham and Hotel G. Any opinions on which is nicer or the better location?

What and where is the Hotel G?

sf--it's the old Hotel Frank on Geary which has/is undergoing renovations into a boutique hotel. You know, all monochronomatic color scheme, trying to be hip.

Thanks SAB, the address is 386 Geary if that helps also.

Have stayed several times at the Parc55 so I can vouch for it. Try to find a deal with parking as parking in the city can run 50.00 a night. The Parc 55 usually has deals that include parking. It is a very nice hotel with a good restaurant across the street Pinetti and Puccini or Puccini and Pinetti...Just off Market street and a couple of blocks from Powell. Never heard of Hotel G so cannot give opinion

The Hotel G is still undergoing refurbishment/redesign (at least through this summer) and is in a 'soft opening' so they have special rates. My impression is it is partially a construction zone.

I'd probably wait til they have their act totally together.

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the feedback! I think we'll go with the Parc 55 since Hotel G is still under construction.
