The Bar/Lounge at Hotel Nikko San Francisco

"Warm, polished woods and soothing colors lend a European grace to the accommodations, but the super-comfortable Subarashee Yume pillow-top mattresses, lavish Subarashee Ame showers, and slick in-mirror televisions are straight out of Japan"

"Kanpai Lounge features a wide selection of wines and sake"

"Though the hotel's multiple conference rooms, stylish suites, and on-site UPS store make it an obvious draw for business travelers, the Union Square location, indoor lap pool, and sushi bar appeal to tourists as well, though small children might be happier elsewhere"

"The Anzu sushi bar and steakhouse isn't a bad place to eat; its Sunday jazz brunch buffet is a favourite"

"An on-site lounge, the Rrazz Room, hosts live jazz throughout the week"
