There are hotels near San Francisco's Japantown, and then there's the iconic Hotel Kabuki, recognized by locals as the Japantown hotel.

Since 1917, Hotel Washington has been providing eager guests with jaw-dropping views of the Washington Monument and White House, right from their rooms. But the draw isn't the view alone—this hotel is top-notch, from the design to the service, ensuring guests have a wonderful stay even if politics and history aren't their reason for traveling. Guests looking for a drink can head to the casual patio or up to Vue Rooftop, a chic lounge that serves up some seriously decadent food. Of course, you'll also want to try out a treatment or two at the spa before you check out.
Provincetown, where AWOL is located, may be the historic site of the first place the pilgrims landed when coming over on the Mayflower, but it's anything but outdated. In fact, the Massachusetts town is known for its progressive ethos, and it's home to many local artists, a strong LGBTQ+ population, and a thriving food scene. Take a bike ride on the local trail before heading to town to chow down on some local seafood. When it's time to retire to your immaculately-appointed room, allow the calming color palette and soft sounds of the coast to lull you to sleep.

With one of the only private pools & hot tubs in the area, it's a great home base if you're looking to cool down and escape some of that SoCal heat.
