History & Theme
The hotel's interiors are decorated with black-and-white photographs of Beat Generation icons and local artists' work.

“Hotel Bohème truly captures a bygone era with its bohemian spirit, felt immediately in its artful decor and the welcome sherry offered each afternoon. Its North Beach location is a distinct advantage, placing you at the heart of San Francisco's vibrant Italian quarter and within easy reach of city landmarks. While the rooms are compact, they are well-appointed and the comfort of the beds is noteworthy, making for a restful stay.”
