Remembering the Great Shake of 1906

The Orchard Hotel joins San Francisco’s remembrance of the Great Earthquake and Fire on April 18, 1906 with a once-in-a-century overnight package. “The 5:13am Wake-Up Call Package.”

Intimate and elegant, the Orchard Hotel is conveniently located between Union Square and Nob Hill in San Francisco. The 104-room hotel, newly built in 2000, offers state-of-the-art technology and a wealth of complimentary amenities for business and pleasure travelers, including a European breakfast buffet, high-speed Internet access, fitness center, an extensive CD/DVD library, and Executive Boardroom. Step outside and board the Powell Street cable car or enjoy delicious seasonal cuisine at the hotel’s Vignette Restaurant.

The preparedness kit includes two tickets to “1906 Earthquake: A Disaster in Pictures” at the city’s Museum of Modern Art and a copy of ‘1906’ a page-turning tale of political corruption, romance and murder set during the great earthquake and fire – perfect for people who don’t yet understand the need to be prepared for the next big shake. To help them get prepared, the kit also includes a mini-flashlight, brochures with preparedness tips from the city of San Francisco and two grab-and-go packages of Zola Acai juice, the purest form of this Brazilian super food.
