San Francisco, early April

[DanL]

Hi all - I’m off to SF for a week at the start of April. Any hints on;
A. Where to stay (suggestions for the area or specific hotels both welcome). Budget? Let’s say around £200/night.
B. Stuff to see - I’ve never been, and outside of Alcatraz and the bridge I’m interested in what else “must” be seen... Any tour recommendations?

I could research on line (and will), but it’s always good to get a steer! I’ll be there on my own, so no need to entertain kids, etc.

Cracking, cheers - good to know about timings for Alcatraz and booking well in advance too. I’m hoping the weather will be reasonable while I’m there, but I won’t count on it.

Awesome - thanks to all (particularly tvrolet!) for the info. Looking forward to booking a few trips and the hotel over the next couple of weeks.
