Where to stay, where to shop and what to do in SF
Hi Everyone,
Sorry if someone has already asked this but I did not find a post that was relevant to my questions recently.
I will be visiting your lovely city from the end of June to the start of July. I have a few questions:
1- I will be attending a conference at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco (5 embarcadero center) for the first week, and will be free to roam the second week. I am looking for the best accommodations (for 2 people) and do not mind moving around half way through my trip. Ideally, I'd be very close (<10 minute cab drive) to the Hyatt the first week, and close to shopping areas the second week.
Ideally it would have air conditioning also, since I don't want to get all sweaty every day before the conference. Anyone know of a hotel or apartment rental that would be good for this area? I checked airbnb and there are not many a/c options in those areas. I would prefer not to spend an outrageous amount (about 150 per night for 2 people is what i'm thinking)
2- What are the best places to shop for local and not outrageously expensive things? I am not interested in big box stores or second hand shops, but just reasonably prices local boutiques.
3- what are some cool things I should do while in the city?
4- Where would be the best places to eat (if you're a foodie, i really want your opinion on this, Anthony Bourdain disappointed)
Thanks everyone!
