During your San Francisco vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Aquarium of the Bay
The latest major addition to Fisherman's Wharf is Aquarium of the Bay, a $38-million, 1-million-gallon marine attraction filled with sharks, stingrays, and more. A moving footpath transports visitors through clear acrylic tunnels. The aquarium ultimately is not a destination in itself, but it's a good place to take the kids if you're in the neighborhood.
Ghiradelli Square
This National Historic Landmark property dates from 1864, when it served as a factory making Civil War uniforms, but it's best known as the former chocolate and spice factory of Domingo Ghirardelli (pronounced "Gear-a-deli"), who purchased it in 1984. The factory has since been converted into a three-level mall containing 50-plus stores and 11 dining establishments. Scheduled street performers entertain regularly in the West Plaza and fountain area. Incidentally, the Ghirardelli Chocolate Company still makes chocolate, but its factory is in a lower-rent district in the East Bay. Still, if you have a sweet tooth, you won't be disappointed at the mall's fantastic old-fashioned soda fountain.
California Academy of Sciences
Originally clustered around the Music Concourse in Golden Gate Park (in multiple buildings) and intending to return there around 2008 after a complete rebuild, this grouping of outstanding museums is now across from Moscone West, near the Yerba Buena Gardens and Center for the Arts. In its new location the Steinhart Aquarium houses some 5,400 animals, including seahorses, turtles, snakes, and poison dart frogs as well as a two-story 20,000-gallon living coral reef featuring Harlequin Tush fish, Yellow Tangs, sea stars, and a giant clam. Kids love the "touch tide pool" where they can get their mitts on live sea life.An edited version of the Natural History Museum has also been transplanted and hosts changing exhibits such as "Ants: Hidden Worlds Revealed," which shows the insects in action within six different live ant colonies. Some of the museum's permanent displays have moved, too, including Snake Alley, where terrestrial snakes reside; Astrobiology, an exhibit exploring life in extreme environments; and ScienceNOW, which presents a frequently changing display of Academy research, breaking science news, and expeditions around the globe. Toddlers will love the Nature Nest, an education center with hands-on learning activities.Families should look into the Academy's calendar of events, which includes fun kid-friendly festivities such as face-painting, storytelling, animal origami, and exhibit-related stories and demonstrations.
The Commodore Hotel
If you're looking to pump a little fun and fantasy into your vacation, this six-story downtown Art Deco building is the place to go. San Francisco hotelier Chip Conley of Joie de Vivre Hospitality is behind this groovy revamped hotel frequented by an eclectic mix of 20-somethings and everyday folks in search of reasonably priced accommodations. Stealing the show is the Red Room, a small New York-slick bar and lounge that reflects no other color of the spectrum but ruby red (you gotta see this one). The stylish lobby, which was renovated in 2000, comes in a close second, followed by the adjoining Titanic Café, a cute little diner that serves American fare for breakfast and lunch. The "Neo-Deco" rooms, all of which underwent upgrades through 2001, are simple but lively with bright colors, whimsical furnishings, pretty artwork, and small bathrooms refurbished in 1998.
Renoir Hotel
Housed in a majestic 1909 Flatiron-style brick building, the Renoir is one of the few low-priced hotels in the downtown area whose guest rooms actually have pleasing views and direct sunlight. Located within walking distance to most of the city's main attractions, this privately owned and family-run hotel was completely renovated in 2001 with a pseudo European turn-of-the-20th-century theme -- the high-ceiling lobby is replete with ornate columns, gilded elevators doors, large chandeliers, antique furnishings, and spiffily dressed staff. Ostentation comes to a screeching halt once you enter your guest room, however, each of which is simply furnished with modern dark-wood furnishings, flower-patterned bedspreads and matching drapes, and those ubiquitous awful prints screwed into the wall above the bed. No matter: The hotel is in such a great location that you'll probably spend very little time supine. The hotel's restaurant, Café do Brasil, is San Francisco's first (and only) Brazilian "Churrasco Rodizio," the classic eat-until-you-say-uncle Brazilian style of barbecue. Tip: Request a room overlooking Market Street, since they receive the morning sun.
Hostelling International San Francisco-Downtown
For just over $20 per night (with a notarized ID), you can relive college-dorm life in an old San Francisco-style building right in the heart of Union Square. Occupying five sparsely decorated floors -- each with its own pay phone -- rooms here are simple and clean. Each has two or three bunk beds with linens, its own sink, a closet, and lockers (bring your own lock or buy one at the front desk). Although most private rooms share hallway bathrooms, a few have private facilities. Laminated posters adorn the hallways, and there are several common rooms, including a reading room and a large kitchen with lots of tables, chairs, and refrigerator space. There are laundry facilities in the building and a helpful information desk where you can book tours and sightseeing trips. The hostel is open 24 hours, and reservations are essential, especially during the summer. Persons under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
