During your San Francisco vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Haas-Lilienthal House
Of the city's many gingerbread Victorians, this handsome Queen Anne house is one of the most flamboyant. The 1886 structure features all the architectural frills of the period, including dormer windows, flying cupolas, ornate trim, and winsome turret. The elaborately styled house is now a museum, its rooms fully furnished with period pieces. The Foundation for San Francisco's Architectural Heritage maintains the house and offers docent-led tours. The 1-hour tours (the only way to see the house) start every 20 to 30 minutes.

The Cannery
The Cannery was built in 1907 as a fruit-canning plant and was converted into a mall in the 1960s. It contains 30-plus shops, a ceramic studio and gallery, and several restaurants, including Jack's Cannery Bar (tel. 415/931-6400). Vendors' stalls and sidewalk cafes occupy the courtyard amid a grove of century-old olive trees and, weather permitting, street performers are usually out in force, entertaining tourists. Note: This is a tourist destination that many locals avoid.

Coit Tower
In a city known for its great views and vantage points, Coit Tower is one of the best. Located atop Telegraph Hill, just east of North Beach, the round, stone tower offers panoramic views of the city and the bay.Completed in 1933, the tower is the legacy of Lillie Hitchcock Coit, a wealthy eccentric who left San Francisco a $125,000 bequest "for the purpose of adding beauty to the city I have always loved" and as a memorial to its volunteer firemen. She had been saved from a fire as a child and held the city's firefighters in particularly high esteem.Inside the base of the tower are impressive murals titled Life in California and 1934, which were completed under the WPA during the New Deal. They are the work of more than 25 artists, many of whom had studied under Mexican muralist Diego Rivera.The only bummer: The narrow street leading to the tower is often clogged with tourist traffic. If you can, find a parking spot in North Beach and hoof it.

Make your reservations for discount hotel rooms in the San Francisco area, including:

Sir Francis Drake
It took a change of ownership and a multimillion-dollar restoration to revive the Sir Francis Drake, but the stately old queen is again housing guests with old-San Francisco aplomb. Granted, the venerable septuagenarian is still showing signs of age despite the fact that the owners continue to throw millions toward renovations. But the price of imperfection certainly shows in the room rate: a good $100 less per night than its Nob Hill cousins. The hotel is perfect for people who are willing to trade a chipped bathroom tile or oddly matched furniture for the opportunity to vacation in pseudo-grand fashion. Allow Tom Sweeny, the ebullient (and legendary) Beefeater doorman, to handle your bags as you enter the elegant, captivating lobby and live like the king or queen of Union Square without all the pomp, circumstance, and credit card bills.Scala's Bistro, one of the most festive restaurants downtown, serves good Italian cuisine in a stylish setting; the Parisian-style Café Expresso does an equally commendable job serving coffees, pastries, and sandwiches daily. The superchic Starlight Room, on the 21st floor, offers cocktails, entertainment, and dancing nightly with a panoramic view of the city.

Embassy Suites
If you've stayed at an Embassy Suites before, you know the drill. But this hotel is one of the best airport options, if only for the fact that every room is a suite. But there is more: The property has an indoor pool, whirlpool, courtyard with fountain, palmtrees, and a bar/restaurant. Plus, each tastefully decorated two-room suite has nice additions such as two TVs. Additionally, a complimentary breakfast of your choice is available before you're whisked to the airport on the free shuttle -- all that and the price is still right.

The Huntington Hotel
One of the kings of Nob Hill, the stately Huntington Hotel has long been a favorite retreat for Hollywood stars and political VIPs who desire privacy and security. Family owned since 1924 -- an extreme rarity among large hotels -- the Huntington eschews pomp and circumstance; absolute privacy and unobtrusive service are its mainstays. Although the lobby, decorated in grand 19th-century style, is rather petite, the guest rooms are quite large; they feature Brunschwig and Fils fabrics and bed coverings, antique French furnishings, and views of the city. The lavish suites, so opulent that they've been featured in Architectural Digest, are individually decorated with custom-made and antique furnishings. Prices are steep, as you would expect, but special offers such as a Romance Package, which includes champagne, sherry, and limousine service, make the Huntington worth considering for a special occasion.The Big Four restaurant offers expensive contemporary American cuisine. Live piano music is played nightly in the lounge.
