Choosing Convenience in the City by the Bay

This post is in cooperation with the Hipmunk Boutique 2016 campaign

San Francisco; the City by the Bay, the Gateway to the Pacific. There are many titles given to this amazing West Coast city, all of them worthy of such magnificent surroundings. Set on San Francisco Bay, home to San Francisco Sourdough, Alcatraz Island, and the curviest street in the country, this city of around 900,000 residents continues to charm.

If you are wanting to be close to the action, the Hyatt Regency San Francisco is for you. Ideally located near the Embarcadero and Financial district, the Hyatt is walking distance to many of San Francisco’s most iconic sights, and an easy transport option to others. Offering typical Hyatt luxury, with plush bedding, designer bath products, and a restaurant and gym on-site, this location makes discovering the charm of San Francisco easy.

For those coming to San Francisco for business, the CitiGarden hotel might be the best option. Reasonably priced, yet next to the Convention Center, the CitiGarden offers WiFi, desks, data ports and phones. Conveniently located to restaurants and shopping, the hotel has free parking or shuttle service as well. They even allow your four-legged friend to join you with their pet program.

Many people find it to their best interest to arrange lodging near the San Francisco airport. With parking downtown both expensive and limited, a wonderful option is to sleep near the airport and shuttle into town for a day of sightseeing. Hipmunk hotels offers many delightful options.

La Quinta Inn San Francisco Airport North is ideally located, close to the airport  and yet offering easy access to the city. The hotel itself offers free breakfast, parking, shuttle, and a pool. Pets stay for free and families will find they are only minutes away from the Convention Center, Candlestick Park, and the Zoo.

The Hotel Focus is another great choice near the airport and yet with easy access to downtown on BART. Pets are also accepted at this hotel, and all rooms include free WiFi, cable, ironing boards, and hair dryers. Only three miles from the airport, this location offers easy access to California’s famous biotech region.

Another affordable choice is the America’s Best Value Inn & Suites San Francisco Airport North. For a modest price, America’s Best provides free WiFi,  breakfast, and parking.  A location near Cypress Golf Course and McLaren Park makes it easy to get in some outdoor fun before heading downtown to check out Chinatown, the Golden Gate Bridge, and all that this great city has to offer.
