Overview

1930's glamour with a certain modern swing... cocktails and hors d'oeuvres served in a glamorous setting... a place to see and be seen. It's Harry Denton's Starlight Room atop the Sir Francis Drake Hotel, and its presence signals that, "The nightclub is back." Located on the 21st floor of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel, the 360-degree view from the Starlight Room is as breathtaking as any in the world, encompassing brilliant sunsets or rolling fog, city lights, and landmarks from Telegraph Hill to the Bay Bridge. And inside, the view is every bit as stunning. Ruby reds and golds, nine imported chandeliers, a bevy of beveled mirrors, deep velvet booths and hundreds of yards of luscious ruby red, gold, and teal Scalamandre damask as well as crimson hand-rubbed silk drapery give the completely new room an air of elegance you might find at Maxim's in Paris or an opera house in Vienna. Which is just what designer Arthur Valdez had in mind when he and Harry pulled out all the stops, from the Axminster carpet from London to the art nouveau handle on the ladies' room door. In Harry's trademark style, even the ladies' powder room is straight out of a stylish 1930s movie.
