Description
At the Hotel Vitale, the luxury is subtle. This boutique hotel along the revitalized Embarcadero strikes the hard-to-find balance between contemporary and warm—think reclaimed wood and river stones mixed with sleek minimal design and you get the idea. It’s the newest property created by the Joie de Vivre family of hotels, and their signature finesse is found everywhere. From the swanky circular bar downstairs to the terraces on the upper floors, the facility makes a chic setting for a wedding or special event.
The overall feeling of serenity and vibe of cool permeates every space in the hotel. On the first floor, just off the street-level lobby, the Amalfi Room offers an ultrastylish backdrop for seated dinners and lounging. Almost-sheer, platinum-colored curtains filter in daylight (or the city lights at night) but keep the room private and, thanks to its neutral palette, the Amalfi dresses up beautifully. Formal dinners here shine, with brocade linens, Chiavari chairs, and candlelight; conversely, it makes an excellent lounge with a bar in the corner, overstuffed white couches and large potted palms.
The hotel’s on-site restaurant, Americano, provides several options for parties. A circular room at one end works well for private cocktail receptions; warmth comes from wood floors and dark brown club chairs, which are arranged so that guests can look out the abundant windows to the palm treelined Embarcadero beyond. In the intimate private dining room at the opposite end of the restaurant, a curtain separates rehearsal dinners from the main dining area. An expansive patio right outside is a harmonious counterpart to the adjacent Embarcadero: Tall bamboo and wooden furniture—plus the requisite heat lamps—create a relaxed, yet civilized, ambiance.
Take the elevator to the hotel’s peaceful upper levels, and you’ll find the terraces and spa that make this place truly special. The fifth-floor terrace overlooks the Ferry Building and bay, and is an excellent spot for a cozy ceremony, cocktail party, or very small seated dinner. The two-tiered terrace on the seventh and eighth floors is also a stellar location to tie the knot or host a standing reception. With its slightly higher vantage point maximizing the views, this outdoor aerie transforms into a gorgeous above-city party scene.
On the hotel’s penthouse level, the Vitale Spa pampers bridal parties in style before—and after—the wedding. Who can say no to a tangerine-infused bath in a rooftop garden, where all you have to do is “look up at the sky and imagine where your skin ends and the water begins?” Couples can enjoy a side-by-side massage (with a view of the Bay Bridge), not to mention a private yoga class in a glassed-in studio, followed by a light brunch out on the terrace.
In the Hotel Vitale, every element is designed with a commitment to subtle visual pleasure and pure comfort. Soft and sultry lighting, fresh lavender scattered throughout, and warm wood accents soothe the senses and make this San Francisco getaway an unlikely urban oasis.
