The Hong-Kong based Hotel G brand has opened its first American
locale, in downtown San Francisco. The 153-key boutique-which is
housed in the former Hotel Frank-was updated by New York-based
Hun Aw Studio, whose other work includes the Hotel G in Bangkok and
the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel in Los Angeles.
At the newest Hotel G, several original architectural elements of
the 106-year-old building were retained and enhanced. The building's
art deco façade was restored, while the structural cross-bracing on the
exterior mezzanine level was exposed again, after being hidden for the
past 60 years. In addition, the main staircase in the guest corridor was
sandblasted down to its original cast iron finish and sealed.
"The hotel has undergone a number of renovations over the course
of its 100-year existence, which provided exciting discoveries as we
peeled back the layers," said Hun Aw, founder of the interior, architectural and furniture design firm bearing her name. "It felt important
that we stay true to the bones of the building. Our design process for
Hotel G has been predominately subtractive, removing the extraneous
to enhance the essential. We've been selective about our additions and
were mindful of what complemented the existing architecture. The interiors should feel as though they've evolved organically."
That approach is on display at the hotel's entrance, which features
double-glass doors followed by a gently sloped ramp carved into the
existing floor that draws guests toward the main lobby. The lobby itself
is home to concrete ceilings and green and white hexagon tiles-some
of the raw textures uncovered-contrasted with crisp linens and plaster
walls. The check-in area features minimalistic brass reception desks and
vintage furniture.
Guest room highlights include natural walnut finishes, muted colors,
original concrete and hardwood floors, white billowy curtains, tufted
headboards and hand-dyed woven rugs. Other elements include Victorian settees, vintage floral wallpaper, assorted schoolhouse chairs with
playful accents and quirky California-shaped bed pillows. The hotel also
houses abstract prints and paintings curated through the non-profit
organization, Creativity Explored.
