This season, consider donating to a worthy cause that gives the holidays a deeper meaning and doesn’t clutter your home.

Do you think you’ve seen all that San Francisco has to offer? The truth is that you haven’t experienced The City by the Bay until you’ve seen it from above. The best way to absorb the city views is by staying at one of Stanford Court’s superior rooms.

Special programming include rallies, marches and community engagement that celebrate all the colors of the rainbow during the last weekend of June. Here’s a look at the big ones.

Our new fitness center is easy to find — it’s at the corner of California and Powell. True, it’s still technically part of the hotel, but now ... 

While SF’s fall weather consistently provides the beautiful part of that recipe — this is one of the best times to visit — the area’s culture provides the fun and inviting parts.

The history of Stanford Court Hotel goes back over a hundred years, beginning not with a hotel, and not even with the now famously opulent neighborhood of Nob Hill.

After pulling out a 3-ton penguin statue on the premises with a crane and sending it off for restoration, we want to welcome back our 10-foot mama penguin to Stanford Court Hotel.

Do you know how much our fair SF loves #art?

It’s no secret that we love our pets at SCH. After all, SCH is 100% pet-friendly. Four-legged friends are always invited - and pampered like our guests.

Take these tips from a #local. Here’s how to NOT break the bank on your trip to the City by the Bay.

We’re pretty psyched for the 50th Anniversary of the Summer of Love. One of the things we’re most excited about is the “Summer of Love Experience: Art, Fashion, and Rock ‘n’ Roll” exhibit at the de Young Museum.

So here at SCH we’re huge fans of the Ferry Building Farmers Market - the gorgeous produce, the delicious food, and the local producers

If you’re going to San Francisco...be sure to wear some flowers in your hair - and book our Summer of Love package. In honor of the 50th Anniversary of the Summer of Love, SCH is offering a pretty far out special.

Many residents of the City by the Bay fall into two categories - techie or foodie - and often both. After all, this is San Francisco and the local dining scene was designed with the Instagram canvas in mind. That said, here are the most instagrammable spots in SF right now:

Award shows bring lots of hype, but it’s the Crunchies that highlight the real game-changers in today’s digital world. TechCrunch’s annual celebration of the best in tech turns 10 this year, with some pretty impressive innovators vying for their very own Crunchie.
