Inn At Oyster Point Offer Luxury San Francisco Airport-Area Lodgings

The Inn at Oyster Point near San Francisco International Airport (SFO) has had a vibrant makeover transforming the airport hotel into a boutique destination. The 20-year-old inn was made over by the Andrew Alford Design Studio and inspired by the glamourous designs of famed interior designer of the 1940-'50s, Dorothy Draper. "I wanted to turn the hotel into a jewel box work of art," said Alford, a well-known San Francisco-based designer of luxury hospitality properties.
