Summit Hotel Accommodation
Summit Venue:
Intercontinental San Francisco Hotel
888 Howard Street
San Francisco, CA 94103
T: +1.888.811.4273
The cultural mecca of the U.S. West Coast, you can be in a museum in the morning and on a mountain in the afternoon. Mind-expanding cultural attractions exist alongside invigorating outdoor activities and the stunning San Francisco Bay. Gaze at the work of Jackson Pollock at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in the morning and then head to Muir Woods to peer up at gigantic redwoods in the afternoon. From the hippie haunts of Haight-Ashbury to the colorful Victorian architecture of the predominantly gay Castro District, and from Japantown to Chinatown, San Francisco is all about neighborhoods. Each has a distinct look and vibe. You could easily spend a day in each or hop on a streetcar to sample a few.
A GLEAMING TOWER HIGH ABOVE THE HEART OF THE CITY, InterContinental San Francisco is the Bay Areas newest upscale hotel destination. The 32-story glass tower sparkles high above the city, standing sentry over the South of Market (SoMa) area. The smoke-free hotel is convenient to everything, including the Moscone Convention Center, Union Square, Chinatown and the Powell Street Cable Car Turnaround.
We have negotiated a rate for ATPS attendees of $179 per night! Hotel Booking is available here:
