<![CDATA[	 <img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/21888/adagiopenthousefull.jpg" class="top"> Hows this for an Inception moment? There we were, yesterday, having lunch at the Top of the Mark in San Franciscos <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Intercontinental+Mark+Hopkins/local/758">Intercontinental Mark Hopkins</a>, looking idly at the view of the Transamerica Building, the Golden Gate Bridge and Twin Peaks when we cast our eyes southwest and noticed <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Clift+Hotel/local/988">The Clift</a>. Wed stayed there last week, so that tickled us. But then our eyes panned a little to the right and saw a tiny rooftop oasis with palm-type plants and bushes and sun loungers. And as we were thinking how cute it was, we realised that it was the penthouse at the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hotel+Adagio/local/1575">Hotel Adagio</a>. And, coincidentally, our room, since wed checked in at 11pm

<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/hoteltonight_offers.jpg" class="top"> The other week we speculated about a new mobile booking site to enter the ever-crowded hotel booking market called <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2010/12/6/155343/371/hotels/Hmm_What_is_Hotel_Tonight_">HotelTonight</a>. Well, just in time for your last-minute panic attacks about getting a hotel room for New Year's Eve, the site has officially launched. (But since it's a mobile booking site, we should really say, the app is now available to download.) So what makes HotelTonight different from other booking sites? First off, the site promises exclusive, members-only rates. And becoming a member will automatically get you $10 off your first booking.

<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/hoteladagiosale.jpg" class="top"> There isn't a very good track record for hotels that do promotions with shockingly low rates. Remember the Leading Hotels of the World's <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2008/10/1/101723/828/hotels/Yeah_We_Got_Totally_Shut_Out_of_the_LHW_19_28_Sale_Too">$19.28 fiasco</a> or the recent Copley Square Hotel <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/7/15/91527/4296/hotels/Copley_Square_s_18_Birthday_Sale_Did_Not_Go_So_Well"> $18 birthday rate</a> failure? So excuse us for being a little skeptical about the $9.99 promotion from the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hotel+Adagio%2C+A+Joie+De+Vivre+Boutique+Hotel/ian/124092">Hotel Adagio</a> in San Francisco.The <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/jdv%20hotels">JDV Hotel</a> is advertising a rate of $9.09 for guests who check-in the Sunday or Monday of Labor Day Weekend (September 6th or 7th) and want to extend their stay over September 9th, or 09/09/09. Just to be clear, the rate of $9.99 is for the night of September 9th. Guests must use code 090909 to book. Sure

<![CDATA[<img src="/files/3/adroom.jpg" align="right"> <a href="http://www.jdvhospitality.com/hotels/hotel/15">Hotel Adagio</a> is yet another <a href="http://www.jdvhospitality.com">Joie de Vivre Hospitality</a> property in San Francisco's Union Square. JDV has built many quality boutique hotels in SF, and the recently renovated Hotel Adagio is one of those boutique hotels, but be forwarned, this hip property is not without its issues. Many older buildings that are renovated into hotels seem to have a difficult time achieving temperature Zen in their guest rooms, and Hotel Adagio has a temperature problem.  The guest rooms seemed to be either too hot, or too cold, and after two nights I still couldn't get the in room temperature satisfactory.  The hotel is aware this problem exists in some rooms and is trying to remedy
