Hotel Triton, a Kimpton Hotel in the Heart of Downtown San Francisco
Right across the street from Chinatown's dragon gate entrance, Hotel Triton encapsulates all things great about San Francisco, including an ideal location. Our boutique hotel is just steps from Union Square and the city's top theaters, clubs and restaurants. The Financial District is only two blocks away, while the Moscone Convention Center is an easy five-block walk. Renowned museums are near at hand and fabulous shopping opportunities abound.
The Contemporary Jewish Museum presents As It Is Written: Project 304,805, an exhibition centered around a soferet (a professionally trained female scribe) who will write out the entire text of the Torah, at the Museum, over the course of a full year. She will be one of the few known women to complete an entire Torah scroll, an accomplishment traditionally exclusive to men.
San Francisco's De Young Museum featuring the Tutankhamen exhibit is linked to the original Treasures of Tutankhamen tour of the 1970s. This will be the first time in 30 years that King Tut's treasures will be on display in Northern California – the first time since the original Tutankhamen exhibition opened at the de Young in 1979.
Tutankhamen and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs runs through March of 2010. More than 130 artifacts from Tutankhamen's tomb and the tombs of his predecessors comprise this exhibition.
Your stay at Hotel Triton puts you within easy reach of all the city has to offer. You'll find everything from trinkets to treasures, dim sum to a five-star feast, spontaneous street performances to award-winning theater.
