SAN FRANCISCO, CA. December 20, 2016 - The Inn at Union Square, a Greystone property, announces the top-to-bottom renovation of the boutique San Francisco hotel's 30 guestrooms, suites, and public spaces. Slated for completion in January 2017, the renovations to the charming and intimate hotel are inspired by philanthropist and celebrated proponent of the arts Alma Spreckels, considered by many as the “great grandmother of San Francisco,” with details that evoke a residential quality influenced by the unique and historic homes of the city. This renovation, complemented by the hotel's central location and signature guest service, will ensure the Inn at Union Square provides guests with a best in class experience and remains the top boutique destination in San Francisco for years to come.

“We are thrilled to announce the exciting news of our renovation. Inspired by Alma Spreckels—often said to be the soul of the City—as well as San Francisco's grand Victorians, our updated rooms and public spaces will provide guests with a unique slice of San Francisco life and a true home away from home,” said Ramon Serrano, General Manager of the Inn at Union Square. “From artwork to doorways, we closely scrutinize every aspect of these renovations to make sure that we were honoring the special history of the hotel and this magnificent city, ensuring that we are providing a welcoming and comfortable experience for all of our guests, both those returning to us and those discovering us for the first time.”

This refreshment of the beloved hotel, in the heart of Union Square, will offer guests a true sense of home that is influenced by the spirit of San Francisco. The renovations, which were helmed by interior design firm Perkins + Will, feature a new color palette of whites and greys with plum, gold and burnt orange accents. New guest room details include tufted headboards, plush velvet lounge chairs, black out draperies, ample space for lounging and entertaining, and artwork inspired by San Francisco and Alma Spreckels' love for dance, theatre, and French Baroque design. The renovated bathrooms will also feature a spa-like experience, with Calcutta marble, floating glass shelves, and oversized mirrors.

The hotel's public spaces will also benefit from the renovation. The lobby will serve as a formal entryway, featuring oversized art pieces, soft benches, and accessories that give a touch of home. The public parlors—one on each floor—will be a modern interpretation of the formal living rooms of San Francisco's historic homes, most featuring fully-functioning wood burning fireplaces, cabinet walls filled with artwork, vases, and sculptures, and new soft seating for socializing or enjoying a glass of wine. Corridors will also be transformed with accents of hardwood flooring and gallery artwork, and each guest room's entry doors will be personalized with its own color, number, and unique door knocker inspired by San Francisco entry doors.

Located just steps from bustling Union Square, the Inn at Union Square is a hidden gem that offers guests a comfortable and unforgettable experience with impeccable service and attention to detail. Guests of the Inn enjoy the conveniences of a centrally-located boutique hotel with complimentary continental breakfast, complimentary evening wine and cheese reception, complimentary wireless Internet access, and room service from neighboring Morton's Steakhouse.
