John King, who earlier this year smacked down one of our favorite San Francisco hotels, has found a hotel he enjoys--at least from the outside. The St. Regis San Francisco is the object of King's affection.

A skyscraper must be measured by how it enhances the life of the city, not just whether it looks good on the skyline. That's why the St. Regis is a genuinely engaging success -- though it isn't the architectural landmark its creators set out to build.

The 260 room hotel is topped by 102 condominiums, and a three-story cultural space along Mission Street that houses the new Museum of the African Diaspora.

King goes on to say:

They also have a street-level urbanity that's rare for projects this size: No matter how exclusive the St. Regis might be -- and with hotel rooms that start at $529 per night the answer is very -- it's a good neighbor.

Isn't the new St. Regis right next to 111 Minna?  Wonder how the gallery likes their new neighbors.

No word on what the $529 rooms are like, but as always, we are waiting with bated breath for you to tell us.
