Phoenix Hotel

A 1950s retro-style hotel that's housed everyone from David Bowie to Moby, the Phoenix has long been a magnet for the traveling artist. With a tropical flair and one of San Francisco's only pools (heated!), the Phoenix is decked out in colorful furnishings, original art, an outdoor sculpture garden, and a vibrant social scene. Keep an ear to the ground for one of their many epic poolside bashes.

When it comes time to eat and drink, the hotel's Chambers draws locals and tourists alike. A recent update from the old Bambuddha Lounge, the restaurant and bar offers swanky dining and craft cocktails amidst vinyl collections and bold decor.
