| The Metropolis Hotel is a 1930's landmark building,
located on Mason Street. The hotel is situated one block west
of the Powell Street cable car turnaround and just one and one
half blocks from the San Francisco Center (which houses Nordstroms).
The forces of nature come alive in this 1930's colonial revivalist
building. The Metropolis, redesigned by Carta Design Group, gently
balances the forces of nature in every room. Each floor of the
hotel reflects earth, wind, fire or water. The image is carefully
created with symbolic color, design, graphics and artwork. Rich
fabrics and custom furniture complete the picture. Case goods
constructed in African Lima with stainless steel hardware, maple
framed chairs upholstered in richly colored chenille, and drum
shade lighting with turned wooden bases all contribute to an original
look that is both striking and refreshing. The hotel staff is
well trained and friendly, making your stay especially unforgettable.
The hotel is minutes to fine dining, shopping and entertainment.
