Feeling a little under pressure at the office or just need a break in tedium? Give the Hotel Triton a go and make your way to the city of San Francisco! Hotel Triton is located right in downtown, near all the shopping, shows and sights and the hotel itself is definitely a sight to see. Inspired by pop art and culture, the hotel is full of bright colors, whimsically shaped archways and windows and ever-changing local art and photos. Each of the 140 rooms available at Hotel Triton are equally delightful in visual stimulation, but are also uniquely designed to follow a tastefully fun theme. If all the activities of the city in the near vicinity get a little overwhelming, relax indoors at the hotel that also houses a cafe full of scrumptious treats, a wine tasting and tarot reading hour every evening, and fresh baked cookies every afternoon. On top of all that, there are also spa and gym services plus free wi-fi in every room and zebra print bathrobes for lounging. And the Hotel Triton can boast in being one of the first eco-friendly hotels, offering many services that are nicer to Mother Earth. Really wanna feel like home during your little getaway? Hotel Triton is also pet friendly so bring Rover along too make it a real family vacation! And if you're like me and already live in the great city of San Francisco, take a weekend and see the city through a tourist's eyes! Check out the slideshow to see the colorfully designed and pop-art inspired Hotel Triton for yourself.

Been dreaming of that romantic Tuscan getaway but don't exactly have the spare cash for the overseas accommodations? Good news -- now you can enjoy the beauty of Italy right in the heart of San Francisco's Union Square! True, it might not be an equivalent replacement, but the idea is still there, and with its Italian villa-style decor, newly-remodeled accommodations, and authentic wine bar and restaurant next door, Villa Florence is the closet you'll get to your ideal romantic destination on this side of the world! You'll get the coziest of VIP treatments as you enjoy the hotel's warm contemporary decor and modern amenities (complete with L'Occitane products in the room!), providing you an escape within an escape. As beautiful as it may be, don't hole yourself up in the room, though -- with the hotel's prime SF location, you can shop the day away without having to exchange your currency! Take a look at the slideshow for a glimpse of SF's take on the Italian villa.
