oh ya mike, a some tips before you go to the Yay for the weekend..
-Don't say "Frisco". Only noobs and out of towners say that. SF is acceptable and so is "The City".
-Don't put "the" in front of highways.
Acceptable: 880, 680, 101, 580
Unacceptable: Thuh 880, the 680, tha 101, the 580
-It is ok to say hella. You know you want to say it.
-Fremont has a LOT of traffic cameras. So does UC now. If fremont still has **** cops that pull you over for a louder than normal exhaust, i won't be surprised...

my bad....palomino is a restaurant. i've been there in fact....imo, overrated but a lot of folks, incl my mom like it.
anyways, not sure how i got the 2 mixed up, but the argent is other boutique hotel i meant to suggest. it's not as hyped up as other downtown spots, but it's a very nice place. i've sent a lot of out of towners over there, and they've all been pleased. you might catch a few celebs here and there too.

I currently work a block away from the Le Meridien and was part of the opening team when it opened as the Park Hyatt in 1989.
Pluses:
smaller (360 rooms) more initimate feeling
great personal service
nice lounge/bar area (drinks $$$, though)
rooms are nice (ask for the 18/19 rooms, they have a partial view of the bay bridge)
nice room service menu
Minuses:
off the beaten path; not alot happening in the area (walking)
I'm biased, between the Palace, Fairmont and Le Meridien I'd choose Le Meridien. It's all personal preference.
Have fun either way.
