Architecture A beauty reborn
Dating to the early 20th century, the building has passed through several incarnations, all rooted in hospitality. Today, its Mission and Spanish Revival character remains visible in the historic details, while contemporary art, natural wood, earth-toned tiles, and mixed-and-matched furnishings create an easy dialogue between old and new. A soft, California-inspired palette lends warmth to the reimagined urban neighborhood inn.
Interior design Avi Brosh and the Palisociety design team
Palisociety’s approachable take on modern hotel design creates the feel of a stylish neighborhood home rather than a formal hotel. Mixed patterns, textures, and accessories are layered with an eclectic assortment of furnishings and fixtures, forming spaces that feel collected over time. In the rooms, that residential sensibility continues with worktables, Smeg fridges, stocked minibars, and a mix of king, queen, and suite accommodations.
Bar Maritime Sea-inspired cocktails
Tucked away on the hotel’s second floor, Bar Maritime is a cocktail bar and event space inspired by the sea. Settle in with a platter of oysters and an ice-cold martini, or choose from classic cocktails, local beers, and wine. The expansive, loft-style space carries the maritime theme into a relaxed gathering spot for drinks, bites, and evenings that stretch beyond dinner.
