Another Award for COVA

Cova Gal — Mon, 03 May 2010 17:30:15 +0000

Cova Hotel is proud to receive the “Very Clean” award from Venere, a travel agency for international visitors. Extreme cleanliness is one of COVA’s foundational elements – it’s necessary to provide the COMFORT and VALUE to our guests. We think being “very clean” is a basic given, but we often forget how many luxury hotels can often overlook this simple element. So while we will continue to provide an impeccably clean environment for our guests, we thank Venere for recognizing our efforts.

Gallery Space

This is our newly renovated COVA Hotel lobby. We’re loving the sleek lines and minimalist feel. But we know something is missing – and that something is urban San Francisco art.

COVA Hotel is holding an urban photography contest and invites photographers of all levels to enter their digital photos via email to covacontest@gmail.com. Winners will have their work displayed in the COVA lobby, the opportunity to sell their art, and a complimentary weekend stay.

San Francisco Arts

Cova Gal — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 18:00:12 +0000

San Francisco is an amazing city known for its culinary adventures, city skyline, and of course, it’s art. There are museums filled with antique exhibits and local urban artists featuring their pieces in galleries and street fairs. As a part of the San Francisco experience, the Cova Hotel is completing its multi-million dollar renovation by adding a touch of local San Franciscan art.

That’s right, the Cova Hotel is looking for local San Francisco artists to create works of urban art to be displayed in the Cova ’s lobby. Are you an artist or know of one who would like their work to be on display in a chic boutique hotel to be seen by guests from around the world?

Stay tuned…more details to come.
