The Bar/Lounge at Le Meridien San Francisco

"Think airport lounge and you can imagine the sleek Bar 333, open for Mediterranean-inspired dinners and drinks"

"A lobby bar and American grill with outdoor seating provide after-work gathering spaces, and there’s also a 24-hour gym and valet parking (for a hefty fee)"

"A luxurious experience awaits at this prime-location hotel, right next to the Embarcadero Center shops"

"Shoppers often drift over to the lobby lounge for afternoon tea (think scones slathered in strawberry preserves and Devonshire cream"

"Thanks to the skywalk connecting the hotel with the Embarcadero Center's office and retail complex, a slew of less formal dining options are readily available during the week, including an inexpensive Mexican venue that consistently gets great reviews"

"And its location is strategically positioned at the nexus of three great walkable neighborhoods: the Embarcadero, North Beach, and Chinatown"
