An Opinionated Look at 13 of San Francisco’s Best Hotel and Day Spas. Spa Vitale at the Hotel Vitale I was worried that the brand-new $53 million Hotel Vitale would be another hot spot with a great bar and tiny guest rooms, so I was surprised by its quiet elegance and spacious accommodation - the smallest of the 199 rooms are 310 square feet, and my Panoramic Suite was 645. The feel is air meets water, health meets high-tech, luxury meets nature. The spa is minuscule - 800 square feet, plus 400 on the roof - and so is the menu, but the small cadre of therapists are knowledgeable and skilled. A couple’s massage class, taught by spa manager Megan Linney, was enlightening and thorough. Nice amenity: the large, deep tubs on the rooftop patio used for the Bathing Ritual, a bath spiked with herbs, essential oils, or goat’s milk. |
