SF NEIGHBORHOOD VIBES
ALAMO SQUARE
Centered on its namesake park, Alamo Square provides snapshot-worthy views of San Francisco’s iconic Victorian architecture (you might recognize the “Painted Ladies” of Full House fame). Casual restaurants and cool shops add to the allure of this everyday neighborhood’s historic architecture and sweeping panoramas of Downtown. Not known for its rowdy nightlife scene, livelier neighborhoods like Haight-Ashbury and Hayes Valley are right next door.
COW HOLLOW
Cow Hollow’s bustling main street attracts cafe dwellers, designer-label shoppers, the artistically inclined, and everyone in between. Brimming with modern restaurants, boutiques, and galleries, Cow Hollow is a San Franciscan treat. This neighborhood’s undeniable popularity ensures it's always crowded, and the nighttime is no different—rowdy packs of young party animals head to Cow Hollow’s numerous bars after dark.
NOB HILL
As the heart of the city, Downtown/Union Square is a never-ending stream of sights, sounds, smells, and places to shop (frugal wallets beware!). This neighborhood is known for 24-hour activity, whether you’re sipping early morning cappuccinos at a sidewalk cafe or on your third round of late-night drinks at a high-roller’s lounge. The bright lights of Downtown/Union Square act as a beacon for all those looking for a fast-paced urban atmosphere.
