Nestled in chic and romantic Sausalito across San Francisco Bay, the Casa Madrona Hotel stands as a testament to time: the historic inn has welcomed travelers since 1885. Guests at this hillside hotel will marvel at the jaw-dropping site, especially at night, of San Francisco Bay, boats sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge, and the city's skyline in the background - an image that will certainly evoke Tony Bennett's signature song.

Throughout Sausalito, guests can tour quaint shops and ride ferries to San Francisco. What's more, local artists showcase their works in area galleries, including during "art walks" with receptions and art showings within walking distance of the hotel.

The Casa Madrona includes the well-regarded Avanyu Spa, where guests can indulge in world-class manicures, pedicures, facials, massages and wet treatments. For the recreationally inclined, the hotel offers passes to a local health club. They'll also find boating, sailing bike rentals and seaplane tours within two miles of the hotel. The area also includes numerous golf courses.

Guests will surely enjoy Casa Madrona's ambience, accented by the brick-paved hotel entrance that leads through glass doors to slate floors, plants in oversized urns, and walls adorned with local artwork. Paths meander through lush gardens of plants and fountains. At the hotel's Italian trattoria, Poggio, Tuscan classics come to Northern California.

Guest rooms in the original Victorian mansion and Mediterranean-style wing offer mini-bars, coffee makers, Sony Dream Machines with CD players, ceiling fans, data ports, bathrobes, fancy Avanyu bath products, pillowtop mattresses and Ralph Lauren bedspreads.

Casa Madrona, a member of California Historic Country Inns, attracts frequent business travelers, wedding parties, celebrating couples and leisure travelers wanting something extra in their City by the Bay trips. This is a heckuva place, especially for hopeless romantics.
