Effective July 28, 2015, Viceroy Hotel Group is now managing The Prescott in San Francisco, California located at 545 Post Street. The hotel is owned by Pebblebrook Hotel Trust. The boutique property, boasting 164 guestrooms, will continue to operate as The Prescott until it closes for renovation later this year. The same great team remains at the hotel and from Viceroy's perspective, it is business as usual. All guest reservations made prior to the management transfer will be honored.

"We are thrilled to welcome The Prescott to Viceroy Hotel Group's collection of iconic and lifestyle hospitality experiences, which builds upon our proven success in San Francisco at the nearby Hotel Zetta," said Bill Walshe, CEO of Viceroy Hotel Group. "As part of the transition, Viceroy currently has plans to retain all of the existing employees at the hotel. At Viceroy we celebrate individuality, and The Prescott and its employees are a true testament to that statement."
