San Francisco’s Stanford Court Hotel debuts a “Nod Hill” sleep program to ensure guests receive the “best sleep they’ve ever had.” A cheeky twist on the hotel’s location on top of the city’s iconic Nob Hill, tech-forward amenities are helping the hotel give guests that amazing night of sleep.

 

With Jawbone’s JAMBOX speakers, guests can play relaxing tunes of their choosing or scan a QR code displayed on an in-room card to listen to a curated playlist of white noise sounds. The hotel also has complimentary earplugs.

 

There is a selection of four different hypoallergenic or feather pillows suited to guests’ individual preferences. The hotel offers courtesy wake-up calls or will send an alarm clock to your room.

 

The 393-room Stanford Hotel features high-tech access, contemporary art and design, unique amenities, active experiences and artisanal food and drink from California purveyors. Formerly the private mansion of Leland Stanford, the hotel dates back to 1876 and is located on the corner of California and Powell Streets.
