Check-In at The Stanford Court

On our last visit to San Francisco, we decided to check up on The Stanford Court Hotel- a Renaissance Property. On our first visit, The Stanford Court had just embarked on a massive renovation effort- so we were excited to see the finished product this week. The Stanford Court has spent over $35 million on the renovation which includes a full rehab of Guest Rooms, Lobby Area, Restaurants, Meeting Space and the addition of a Club Lounge.

The changes are evident upon arrival, as the Main Entrance has been relocated and the Lobby Space has been entirely redesigned to reflect a more modern approach. The Stanford Court is a historic property, originally built as Mr. Stanford’s personal residence, so this most recent overhaul took a great deal of thought and consideration of the property’s historic attributes. The Lobby Space now encompasses a “Great Room” feel as it blends the hotel’s restaurant Aurea into the Lobby itself, creating a unique feel that guests are likely to enjoy.

The Guest Room experience at the Stanford Court has changed dramatically post renovation, and long gone are the days of a traditional decor. The Stanford Court has instead opted for a decor that will appeal to a wider audience, featuring modern colors, and the installation of several new features. Most notably, The Stanford Court has upgraded its bedding, furnishings and technology. The hotel has already received much praise for its bed comfort and addition of 37″ Flat Panel Televisions, Bedside LED Reading Lights and overall room comfort.

There are a wide variety of room configurations, but we’ve listed some of the more popular options on The Stanford Court TripKick.com Page. We found that most guest rooms were generously sized, and some had the distinction of offering City and Bay Views on higher floors.

Deluxe Category Room w/ 2 Queens (Room Number 460) We Recommend Rooms Ending in “60″ as they are some of the Largest Rooms w/ 2 Queen Beds

Deluxe Room w/ Bay & City Views, 1 King Bed (Room Number 447) Rooms Ending in “47″ are Some of the most Preferred Rooms in the Hotel as they are Oversized and Feature Excellent Views

Standard Room w/ 1 Queen Bed, The Stanford Court’s Smallest Guest Room (Room Number 448) Rooms Ending in “48″ are among the hotels’ Smallest, However They are Still Ideal for 1 Traveler, Also Very Quiet

Stanford Court’s “Virtual Wall Mounted Concierge” in addition to the actual Concierge, Assists Guests with Flight Information, Dining Options Etc., all at the Touch of a Finger

The New Gym, Twice the Size of the Previous Facility

We were thrilled to see the evolution of a product, and we give kudos to The Stanford Court for adding style to history and presenting a product that guests are already loving.
