Design “Thing” of the Week: Hotel Vertigo

On April 1st (no joke) I get the pleasure of attending my first conference/workshop for Progressive. I will be attending Adaptive Path: Good Design Faster in San Francisco. After conducting thorough research on hotels that are somewhat close to the workshop I am excited about my upcoming stay at Hotel Vertigo in (S)Nob Hill. I’m not a chain person when it comes to restaurants and hotels and it tickles me pink to have found a boutique-y place with such a history and cheap! First of all it was used in the incredible Alfred Hitchcock classic Vertigo (hence the name of the hotel). Secondly, the cheap I just mentioned equates to less than $300 total for 3 nights! This is San Francisco! The hotel rennovations are not yet completed, but the rooms are supposedly. I will be sure to write a post after my stay to detail whether my experience lives up to the expectations set by the photos and the website. If what I read on Trip Advisor are any indication I think it just might meet or exceed expectations.

As for why this is my design thing pick of the week I’m in the middle of designing an educator’s own personal website (stay tuned) and I keep going back the hotel’s website looking at the photos for inspiration. I love the colors and the overall package that the hotel is trying to sell. I can’t wait for the live experience. See you next week until then enjoy.
