Whimsical Vintage Hotel Postcards

Vienna Coffee House, Mark Hopkins Hotel, S.F.

I was researching some old hotels and stumbled upon the website, alamedainfo.com. They have beautiful vintage photographs and postcards of hotels and historical sights in the San Francisco Bay Area. Here are some of my favorites. Unfortunately, most of these cute restaurants and bars don't exist anymore. Click on the photos for a large, detailed image. Aren't the colors great?
