Best Areas to Stay in San Francisco

One of America’s most beautiful cities, San Francisco sits in the center of California’s Pacific coast, renowned for its vintage cable cars, the iconic Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz island, its storied LGBT community, and array of globally impactful companies, from Levi’s to Twitter. The city limits encompass a relatively small area, but the surrounding Bay Area metropolitan region is home to over eight million residents, living in incredibly diverse neighborhoods.

Downtown San Francisco serves as the focal point with Market Street running through, lined with stores and sky-high workplaces starting where the harbor meets land. Market Street travels southwest from there past the iconic structures soaring sky-high in the Financial District, the busy shopping heart of Union Square, and the elegant governing constructions in Civic Center before reaching the Castro, the center of LGBT life in San Francisco. Below Market Street is South of Market (SoMa), a previous industrial area now home to its own towering skyscrapers, tech start-ups, upscale restaurants, and museums. North of Downtown lie some of the city’s most appealing neighborhoods, all very walkable: Chinatown, one of the oldest in the US, Italian-American North Beach, known for its association with Beats, and Fisherman’s Wharf, the city’s fun, touristy harborside region. Further afield is the old hippie hangout of Haight-Ashbury, the green spaces and world-class museums of Golden Gate Park, the Golden Gate Bridge itself, and the Mission, the historic Latino neighborhood now known for some of the best eating and drinking in the city. On the other side of the harbor lies gritty Oakland, student enclave Berkeley, and the romantic waterside village of Sausalito.

We’ve covered our favorite neighborhoods to visit and stay in more detail below, but with more time these districts are also worth exploring:

β€’ Embarcadero: Downtown`s breezy waterfront promenade boasts a selection of prominent attractions such as the family-friendly Exploratorium situated at Pier 15, Fisherman`s Wharf located at Pier 39, and the Ferry Building Marketplace, crammed with food vendors, bars and a farmers` market. Amongst our favored lodgings in the vicinity are the 1 Hotel,Hyatt Regency, and Hotel Griffon.

β€’ Civic Center
Civic Center Plaza serves as the heart of the city`s administration, with the magnificent City Hall being the primary attraction (guided tours available) – this is where Mayor George Moscone and iconic gay City Supervisor Harvey Milk were sadly killed in 1978. San Francisco`s professional opera, symphony and ballet companies are all situated nearby, while the Asian Art Museum is considered one of the best in the country. Some of our preferred hotels in this area include Inn at the Opera,San Francisco Proper, and YOTEL San Francisco.

β€’ Fillmore/Japantown
The Fillmore District (with Fillmore Street its primary thoroughfare), is among the most essential entertainment areas in the city, especially for live jazz, blues and rock-and-roll (see The Fillmore). Adjacent Japantown is a compact yet charming neighborhood of Japanese stores and eateries. We like the Kimpton Buchanan Hotel and Hotel Kabuki here.

β€’ Cow Hollow & Marina
The Harborside Marina District mostly contains homes, yet also embraces the historic Fort Mason and Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture, along with the must-see Palace Of Fine Arts. Just southward, Cow Hollow primarily describes the strip of galleries, pubs, restaurants and stores along Union Street. Attractions here comprise the Octagon House. Lombard Street is packed with relatively low-cost lodgings: we like the Cow Hollow Motor Inn,Chelsea Inn, and Seaside Inn

β€’ Russian Hill
Upscale Russian Hill, known for its famously winding Lombard Street between Leavenworth and Hyde Streets, is also home to the mural-adorned Diego Rivera Gallery at the San Francisco Art Institute and the bars and eateries of Polk Street. Lodging options are limited in this area, but Russian Hill is near Fisherman’s Wharf, North Beach, and downtown.

β€’ Polk Gulch is the stretch of Polk Street that passes through Nob Hill and Russian Hill, renowned as another nightlife center, ideal for bar hopping. The Holiday Inn San Francisco-Golden Gateway is within a brief walk.

Renting a vehicle is not advisable. Parking spaces are scarce and expensive, traffic congestion is severe, and navigating the roads is challenging. Public transportation in San Francisco is excellent, and ride-hailing services like Uber provide convenient transportation alternatives. Account for sightseeing time as getting from one part of the city to another can take over an hour using public transit due to hilly terrain and heavy traffic flow.

β€’ In the Bay Area, micro-climates are very significant. San Francisco is often immersed in mist or cool breezes, and within city limits temperatures rarely exceed 80Β°F and typically hover in the mid-60s, even in summer. Yet only a few miles inland it can be sweltering hot for much of the year – be prepared for wild fluctuations in temperature when traveling throughout the region. When I lived in the Inner Sunset I would routinely walk to Cole Valley for coffee. And in just that short distance of 7 or 8 blocks, the skies would clear and the climate would change from cloudy and comfortable to sunny and warm.

Best Neighborhoods in San Francisco for…

Best Neighborhood in San Francisco for Families: Fisherman’s Wharf
Locating oneself at Fisherman`s Wharf means finding oneself within walking range of the harbor, a vast assortment of family-friendly attractions, whale-watching and boat trips to Alcatraz, a wide range of eating selections (from In-N-Out Burger and fresh crab shacks, to the original sourdough bakery at Boudin), and even access to those fun cable cars. Children will love quirky attractions like the MusΓ©e MΓ©canique and Madame Tussauds San Francisco, plus the historic boats on Hyde Street Pier, the Aquarium of the Bay and the barking sea lions lounging off Pier 39

Best Neighborhood in San Francisco for First-Timers and Sightseeing: Union Square
Although Fisherman’s Wharf is San Francisco’s tourist hub, those traveling without children are advised to consider Union Square. It’s the city’s bustling commercial center and primary shopping district containing iconic bars and eateries. There`s also ample lodging options and it serves as one of the central transportation hubs of San Francisco`s system, allowing relatively easy access to attractions throughout the city. From here it`s convenient walks to the attractions of Chinatown and North Beach, the museums of SoMa, and the mansions of Nob Hill.

Most Romantic Neighborhoods: Sausalito & Nob Hill
A small, unique community located north of the Golden Gate Bridge, Sausalito creates an ideal getaway for couples. In addition to the spectacular views overlooking the harbor, Sausalito has a lovely waterside path, kayaking and paddle-boarding at Sea Trek, seaside cafes like Fish and Le Garage, and wine sampling at the Madrigal Family Winery. Luxurious and charming hotels are located here, such as Cavallo Point Lodge and Casa Madrona. Sausalito is also easily accessible via ferry from Pier 41 or the Ferry Building in San Francisco.
Hotels situated on the elevated and scenic Nob Hill provide similarly magnificent perspectives over the city and encompass numerous upscale lodging choices: The InterContinental Mark Hopkins San Francisco (with its rooftop bar allowing panoramic perspectives over the landscape), The Ritz-Carlton San Francisco, The Hotel Fairmont San Francisco, and the White Swan Inn are all found in this vicinity. Nearby Polk Street offers an abundance of dining and drinking establishments.

The finest neighborhoods for nightlife are Mission, SoMa and Castro
The nights in San Francisco offer entertainment distributed throughout the city, but generally the Mission District is viewed as prime for partying – it`s particularly known for its atmospheric laid-back bars. Named for the historic Spanish colonial Mission Dolores (still its main attraction; www.missiondolores.org), today the area is one of urban`s most dynamic residential neighborhoods, home to a sizable Latino community, colourful murals (Balmy Alley, Precita Eyes Muralists), an incredible culinary scene (particularly for Mexican cuisine) and lively nightlife. Valencia Street is best for bar hopping, housing Blondies’ Bar,Beehive, and Casanova Lounge, plus live venues like The Chapel. Valencia is just one block from the BART station at 16th St Mission. Our preferred hotels in The Mission are Inn San Francisco, Nineteen 06 Mission and Noe`s Nest Bed & Breakfast Elsewhere, SoMa is best for dancing and partying, especially along and surrounding 11th Street ( DNA Lounge,Audio, LGBT hotspot Oasis, also Cat Club).
For the LGBT community, the Castro neighborhood is a central location – Lookout,Twin Peaks Tavern, and Moby Dick (4049 18th St) are iconic gathering spots. Housing primarily consists of rental properties in the Castro area, but some recommended lodging options include Parker Guest House, Willows Inn Bed & Breakfast, and the affordably priced Beck’s Motor Lodge.

Best Neighborhoods for Food and Restaurants: The Mission, SoMa, and Hayes Valley
San Francisco has some exceptional culinary neighborhoods, with delicious dining options across the city. The Mission District consistently stands out, home to premier taquerias and Mexican eateries north of the border (Valencia Street, Mission Street, and 24th Street anchor the scene). β€œMission-style” or β€œsuper” burritos originated here at renowned spots like Taqueria CancΓΊn,La Taqueria, and TaquerΓ­a El Farolito. Yet this merely scratches the surface. There’s highly acclaimed gourmet restaurant Lazy Bear, high-end vegetarian Al’s Place,Flour + Water Pizzeria, and the original Mission Chinese Food, among many others.
SoMa is best known for its contemporary, award-winning restaurants like Benu,Marlowe,Bellota,Saison, and Omakase. All of these are exceptional In the Hayes Valley neighborhood (centered on Hayes Street west of Market), the culinary landscape is innovative, headlined by restaurants such as Petit Crenn,Rich Table,Cala, and SuppenkΓΌche.

The area best suited for shopping is Union Square

The Apartamentos El Guarapo is an additional complex of Costa Teguise apartments with a privileged location near Bastian Beach and Jablillo Beach. Essentially, it`s among the finest apartments in Lanzarote, so I strongly recommend it.

This trail through the Valley of Fire is well worth exploring, and it’s usually less crowded than the White Domes Trail. Also, keep your eyes open for bighorn sheep!

Prime Neighborhood For Local Ambiance: Hayes Valley
To get away from the crowds of tourists and hang out with locals, spend time in Hayes Valley, where Hayes Street is lined with locally-owned coffee shops, bars, restaurants and stores owned by community members – Azalea Boutique,Reliquary, and Siren serve as good examples, while Urban Ritual CafΓ© is liked for teas and coffee. Hayes Valley is also just a brief stroll from Alamo Square Park, home to San Francisco’s renowned β€œPainted Ladies”. The area has limited hotel options, but Hayes Valley Inn and The Parsonage are recommended.

Safest Areas of San Francisco: Nob Hill and the Marina District
Nob Hill is viewed as one of the safest areas in San Francisco owing to its low crime rate. Marina District is another excellent neighborhood that is generally secure during the day and night, with a clean environment and easy parking. Most touristy districts – Union Square, Fisherman’s Wharf, Golden Gate Park, The Presidio, Chinatown etc – are perfectly safe during the day, though wherever you are in San Francisco, expect to see panhandlers and homeless people.

Unsafe Areas of San Francisco
Most of the neighborhoods in San Francisco are usually safe but like many big cities in California, panhandlers, transients, and homeless individuals are visible across the city. There is an issue with drugs involving many of the transients and it`s not unusual to see drug paraphernalia on the streets and in the gutters. An area to avoid, particularly after dark, is the Tenderloin (in and around the intersection of Turk and Taylor streets). In the summer, when the crowds are at their peak, places such as Fisherman’s Wharf and Union Square can be very busy and it`s wise to be alert for pickpockets. Break-ins of vehicles are sadly rampant throughout San Francisco, so if you rent a car, do not leave any valuables in plain view. Similar to any large city, be cautious, especially at night, and don’t wander alone.

10 Best Neighborhoods in San Francisco for Tourists

a tall building with a clock on it`s side

1. Union Square/Central Market

At the commercial center of downtown San Francisco lies Union Square, a large plaza created in 1850 and now giving its name to the busy shopping, hotel, and theater district that surrounds it for several blocks. The neighborhood spills over onto Market Street, the city’s main drag, and an especially dynamic strip known as Central Market or β€œMid-Market”. In addition to stores and restaurants, several tech companies have their headquarters here, including Twitter, Square, and Uber. Adjacent to both neighborhoods is the gritty Tenderloin, home to the famously inclusive Glide Memorial Church and the Tenderloin Museum.

There are plenty of eating, shopping, and drinking options around Union Square, and the best selection of lodging in the city; plus staying here means being at the central hub for city transportation and within walking distance of the museums of SoMa.
.

β€’ On the other hand, Market Street tends to empty out at night and the area supports a large homeless population.

2. SoMa

SoMa is β€œSouth of Market”, literally the neighborhood below Market Street, from the Embarcadero in the northeast to the Mission in the southwest. Once a district of factories and warehouses, today SoMa is all condos and skyscrapers, home to high tech companies, the city’s new transportation terminal (Salesforce Transit Center) and its tallest building, CΓ©sar Pelli’s Salesforce Tower. For visitors the main attractions include some of the best restaurants in the city (like Benu), and a cluster of museums around Yerba Buena Gardens. Within walking distance is the Museum of the African Diaspora,California Historical Society,Children’s Creativity Museum,Yerba Buena Center for the Arts,San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and Contemporary Jewish Museum, along with historic sites such as St Patrick Church. The brand-new Mexican Museum is also slated to open here.

Staying here provides easy access to some of the city’s top museums, restaurants, and transportation options.
β€’ The vicinity lacks historic charm and personality, and can also feel somewhat empty at night.

3. Chinatown

Though it only spans a few steep blocks around Stockton Street and Grant Avenue, Chinatown is a well-liked tourist destination for good reason, crowded with food stalls, souvenir shops, dim sum eateries, herbalists, fish sellers and a vast assortment of reasonably priced restaurants. It’s a place for wandering around, with local highlights including the bustling Portsmouth Square, small places of worship like Tin How Temple (125 Waverly Place), the pagoda-like Chinese American Telephone Exchange (743 Washington St), Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory (56 Ross Alley), and the Chinese Historical Society of America Museum. Landmark eateries like Far East CafΓ© (631 Grant Ave) are now accompanied by highly rated contemporary restaurants such as China Live, and Mister Jiu’s. There are essentially no suitable places to stay in Chinatown itself ( Hilton San Francisco Financial District is just across from Portsmouth Square, and Pacific Tradewinds Hostel is close by), though it is conveniently accessible from Downtown and North Beach.

4. North Beach

Situated between Fisherman’s Wharf and Downtown is North Beach, traditionally home to San Francisco’s Italian population (baseball star Joe DiMaggio grew up here), but more renowned for its ties to the Beats in the 1950s and 1960s (figures such as Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac). It’s the locale of some of San Francisco’s most historic cafΓ©s (Vesuvio CafΓ©, 255 Columbus Ave; Tosca CafΓ©) and Italian restaurants (Mario’s Bohemian Cigar Store CafΓ©, 566 Columbus Ave; Tony’s Pizza Napoletana), as well as the small Beat Museum and legendary City Lights bookstore, opened in 1953 by poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti (who passed away at the age of 101 in 2021). To the eastern side of central Washington Square lie the wooden townhouses of Telegraph Hill, crowned by panoramic Coit Tower, constructed in 1933 and smothered inside with murals depicting Californian history.

β€’ There’s plenty of character in this neighborhood, with easy access to some of the city’s most storied cafes, bars, and restaurants.
β€’ It’s not quite as convenient for public transport (the cable car brushes its western side), though it’s not far from Downtown/Union Square and Fisherman’s Wharf.

5. Fisherman’s Wharf

One of San Francisco`s most visited neighborhoods by tourists is very entertaining for families, with sea lions lounging along the piers, numerous themed restaurants and stores, and many attractions, such as Madame Tussauds and Ripley`s Believe It or Not, the Aquarium of the Bay and the Cartoon Art Museum. The San Francisco Maritime National Historic Park manages the historic vessels docked at Hyde Street Pier, while the USS Pampanito is a World War II submarine now serving as a museum. Learn about sourdough bread at the Boudin Bakery Museum, chocolate at the Ghirardelli Square, and sample fresh seafood from crab shacks lining Taylor Street. This location also offers boat trips around the harbor, whale-watching excursions, and the ferry ride to Alcatraz Island.

Remaining here means being at the center of tourist activities, with plenty to do, eat and shop – it’s also convenient for boat trips.
β€’ As the city`s tourism center, it lacks local character (most residents actually dislike it), and it`s not as convenient for exploring the rest of the city.

6. Haight-Ashbury


Two miles west of Downtown, Haight-Ashbury (aka β€œUpper Haight” or just β€œthe Haight”) is best known for being ground zero of the hippie movement in the late 1960s: the massive β€œHuman Be-in” was held nearby in Golden Gate Park in 1967 and the β€œSummer of Love” happened here soon after. Today Haight Street is one of the city’s most compelling shopping districts and places to stroll, with shops offering hippie-themed souvenirs and vintage fashion. Highlights include the giant Amoeba Music store, and former home of the Grateful Dead at 710 Ashbury St (and the Hell’s Angels’ across the street). There are not many places to stay here – we recommend the hip Metro Hotel and the mid-range Stanyan Park hotel, right across from Golden Gate Park.

7. Presidio & Richmond (Land’s End)

The northwest corner of San Francisco is dominated by the iconic Golden Gate Bridge and the Presidio, a former military base now transformed into a wooded park featuring nature art installations and historic landmarks. Its refurbished red-brick army buildings now house museums such as the Walt Disney Family Museum,Society of California Pioneers Museum, and the Presidio Visitor Center. To the south lies the Richmond district, a mainly residential neighborhood renowned for its diverse culinary offerings, especially Asian cuisine (Clement Street and Geary Boulevard are the primary locations). The extreme western end of Richmond is dominated by Lincoln Park and the rocky promontory known as Land’s End. The renowned Legion of Honor art museum is also located here.

Staying at the Presidio can provide an atmospheric and much quieter alternative than elsewhere in San Francisco, but it isn’t as convenient for dining, drinking, and sightseeing in the rest of the city.

8. Golden Gate Park

Stretching from Haight-Ashbury for three miles all the way to the Pacific Ocean is the vast swathe of green known as Golden Gate Park. In addition to leafy trails, ponds, boating lakes and a bison paddock, the park contains some of San Francisco’s standout attractions like the California Academy of Sciences,de Young Museum of Art,San Francisco Botanical Garden, and Conservatory of Flowers. Also located within the park is the renowned Japanese Tea Garden, where matcha tea and fortune cookies can be enjoyed at the Teahouse. While there are no hotels situated in the park itself, Stanyan Park hotel provides lovely views of the eastern end from its location.

9. Oakland

One of the largest ports in the US, once predominantly working class Oakland has seen gentrification over the past decade, with waterfront redevelopment at Jack London Square. At the eastern end, Heinhold’s First and Last Chance Saloon dates to 1883 and was a favorite haunt of writer Jack London. Downtown Oakland itself offers little beyond the Oakland Museum of California, housing exhibitions on California ecology and history, like the Black Panther Party, founded in Oakland in 1966. High above the city within hilltop Joaquin Miller Park stands the Chabot Space & Science Center.

The lodging options in Oakland are limited; there are cheaper motels Downtown, a cluster of standard chain hotels near Oakland Airport and also close to the Amtrak Station in Emeryville, and finally along West MacArthur Blvd, at the junction of I-580 and I-980.

β€’ The fastest approach to travel between Oakland and San Francisco is by taking the BART train, though buses and ferries also connect across the bay.

10. Berkeley

Berkeley, north of Oakland and also across the harbor from San Francisco, is dominated by the esteemed University of California, Berkeley campus, one of America’s top (and most progressive) institutions of higher education. Its tree-sheltered pathways are a pleasant place to stroll, while nearby Telegraph Avenue is lined with bars, inexpensive restaurants, and book- and music stores. Attractions include the Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of Anthropology and Berkeley Natural History Museums on campus, plus the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive just outside.

– The quickest approach to travel between Berkeley and San Francisco is to take the BART train.
