Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city, but still in a central location: the Harbor Court Hotel. You’ll enjoy coming home from a strenuous sightseeing tour: Plop onto your luxurious bed and watch the sun set beyond the Bay Bridge—the unbeatable view of the San Francisco Bay is well worth the additional charge. The cozy lobby offers daily happy hour, and if you are still not tired, catch the historic tram at the corner for only $2 and take in some nightlife.
