The Hotel Nikko, in San Francisco, is a 4 star inexpensive hotel. Sleep connoisseurs described the bed as "hard", "comfortable", and "great". Guests found the service "excellent". What travelers said they loved: "the staff" and "the room". The hotel is near award winning restaurants, including Jardiniere , Masa's , and Ritz-Carlton Terrace . Also nearby: North Beach , San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park , and Bulo Women . Other local places to consider are Campton Place and Huntington Hotel.
This hotel used to count on foreign visitors for the bulk of its business, but the domestic market has discovered its charms. It's a good bet for business travelers interested in slick, state-of-the-art savvy....
