Courtyard San Francisco Downtown Welcomes America’s Cup Attendees with Valet Parking, Free Wi-Fi
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) July 19, 2013 -- America’s Cup is coming to San Francisco for the first time in its storied history, and those interested in experiencing the excitement firsthand should reserve a stay today at one of the most popular and convenient San Francisco, California, hotels.
The Courtyard San Francisco Downtown puts guests just minutes from the racing events and concert series that constitute World Series America’s Cup, which takes place Aug. 21-26, as well as the proceeding Louis Vuitton Cup on July 4-Sept. 1, 2013.
America’s Cup has a long history of exciting water-based racing. Started in 1851, the tournament pits two yachts against one another: a defender representing the yacht club that most recently won the tournament and a challenger who competes for recognition and to topple the defender. The cup itself is the oldest active trophy in any international sport, adding further intrigue to the competition. The Louis Vuitton Cup that takes place around the World Series helps choose the next challenger yacht.
In addition to the exciting boating action, the event also features notable live musical acts including The Wallflowers, Counting Crows, Weezer, San Francisco Symphony, 311, Sublime, Jonas Brothers and Heart. After a day of boating action, there is nothing quite like world-class music to help attendees sail into the evening.
While the waterways of the Bay fill up with competitors who are jockeying for top honors and points in the illustrious boating events, so do the parking lots surrounding the observation areas. Guests staying at the Courtyard San Francisco Downtown are just moments from the starting and observation areas and can avoid the congested parking areas by taking advantage of the SoMa hotel’s valet parking.
