Starpick the W San Francisco

Wednesday April 9, 2008

There's simply no bad time for a trip to San Francisco. No matter what the weather decides to do, the city has a warmth and dynamism that makes every visit exciting and memorable. So if you feel like spending some quality time in San Francisco in the very near future, click on over to the Starpicks site. The W San Francisco is one of this week's participating Starpicks properties, with last-minute rates of at least 20% off regular rates for stays during the next two weekends, so it won't take too much green to find yourself in the "City by the Bay." The W San Francisco is located in the trendy SoMa (South of Market) neighborhood, just steps from some of the city's greatest attractions. Start your day with a stroll through nearby Union Square, with its many shops and galleries, and then enjoy some Far East cuisine for lunch in Chinatown. A springtime afternoon is perfect for a visit to Fisherman's Wharf or Ghirardelli Square, but if you're looking for something a bit more offbeat, check out the Exploratorium. This quirky museum dedicated to "science, art, and human perception" is located in the Palace of Fine Arts, and features interactive exhibits ranging from the Tactile Dome and the Mind Collection to the off-site Wave Organ, a wave-activated acoustic sculpture located on a jetty in the bay. It's out of this world. New Starpicks properties are posted every Tuesday, so check the list often to find the destination that's right for you.
