A perfect San Francisco day built around the Audi driving experience at 1 Hotel San Francisco. Started with a coastal stop at Sutro Baths at Lands End, then wrapped it up with a classic In N Out run. It is one of those days that feels both elevated and easy, a little scenic, a little fun, and very San Francisco.

Audi Experience, Sutro Baths, & In N Out

Check out a free all-electric Audi for a few hours at 1 Hotel San Francisco—an elevated, relaxed driving experience with concierge reservation.

Burger (hold the fries) at In N Out

While the one hotel in San Francisco is absolutely stunning,

the most rewarding part of my stay was the Audi experience.

first serve amenity where you're allowed to check out an

all-electric Audi absolutely free of cost for a few hours.

I decided to take a trip to the sutro baths at

the Land's End lookout and it was the most stunning.

It was absolutely a coastal dream with stunning wildflowers and

it was a really special treat to see waves that are actually taller than myself.

This experience really made my stay at the 11 to remember.

And the only money I ended up spending was at

In N-Out because I simply could not help myself.

Highly recommend checking it out next time you're in SF.
