Nice guest note with pictures



A guest of ours sent me the following note with some pictures, and I thought I would share the note and pictures with everyone. It really is nice and uplifting when people do things like this.

Thanks!

Dear Mr. Tyler,

Enclosed please see the photo album and please pass it to your staff. I had a wonderful staying in Chancellor Hotel and most of your hotel staff are very helpful.

Matt is a character and very cheerful!!! Rory and Michael M. at the front desk are
very helpful. The most funny thing was the last day of my staying, I found Rory working at the hotel bar. :) So I had to take a pix of him.



Susan, Alicia, Lawrence, Harris, a black guy who handles housekeeping~ they are wonderful.



For sure, I am looking forward to staying in your hotel if I go to SF in the near future.

Take care and have a nice day!

Eccentrics of San Francisco’s Barbary Coast …a magical escapade!


The Chancellor on Hotel Union Square is home to the San Francisco Magic Parlor and I wanted to share this news with everyone on my blog:

Great San Francisco news to share— welcome a new performance venue to the Bay Area!

Join us for our Grand Opening April of 2009 the charming and historic Chancellor Hotel on Union Square is home to “Eccentrics of San Francisco’s Barbary Coast …a magical escapade! ” Celebrate San Francisco’s wild, wacky, and romantic past, with world-class entertainers Spinning Tales and Weaving Enchantment.

Garnering a warm reception each time “Eccentrics of San Francisco’s Barbary Coast”…a magical escapade! has been presented, the highly praised show is now permanently housed within the San Francisco Magic Parlor at the Chancellor Hotel, 433 Powell Street, right on Union Square.

Share libations and delicacies one-half-hour before the show in our elegant and intimate theatre every Friday and Saturday Evening at 8:00pm sharp. Performance-artists Walt Anthony, David Miller, Brian Scott, and Ruth Fraser deliver wonder and wizardry to savor, bringing to life memorable portraits of wild-and-woolly characters from San Francisco’s colorful and notorious past!

Our Victorian Parlor will be elegant yet informal in ambiance —a comfortable room where both tourists and locals can experience distinctive magic with a classic theatrical flavor— without totally emptying their pocketbooks. An intimate velvet-draped stage will be the focal point of the salon, the cozy theatre seating only about three-dozen guests.




Audiences will gather for a ninety-minute show abounding with local anecdotes and lore presented by captivating and consummate conjurers and tale-tellers. We’re partnering with the terrific folks at the Chancellor Hotel to re-establish the San Francisco Magic Parlor in a perfect location accessible to both residents and visitors!

We truly hope our long-term venture will send folks back home from the Bay Area with very magical memories of their California visit! Reservations are highly recommended due to the intimacy of our theatre, and tickets are available from: http://www.brownpapertickets/.com or 1–800–838–3006.
