San Francisco Amtrack Station need to rent a hotel room close to the Amtrack Station/?

Technically, there's actually no Amtrak station in San Francisco. I think there's an Amtrak bus stop right by the Ferry Building (on The Embarcadero) - if that's what you're talking about (and you'd be taking a bus from there across the Bay Bridge to Emeryville to connect to any actual Amtrak TRAINS), the Hotel Vitale is a brand new hotel that's right across the street (on the corner of Mission and Embarcadero).





Hotel Vitale


8 Mission St, San Francisco, CA 94105


Phone: (415) 278-3700

There's also the huge Hyatt hotel at the base of the California St. cable car turnaround... but that hotel is the kind you stay at for business. The Vitale is definitely more of a happening place. The Hyatt, though, if you're still interested:





Hyatt Regency Embarcadero


5 Embarcadero Ctr, San Francisco, CA 94111

Good luck - enjoy your stay!





p.s. If you're actually looking for a hotel close to the Caltrain depot (which is the only train station in San Francisco), where you can take a train south to San Jose, you could actually stay at the Vitale and just hop a MUNI tram down to the end of the line, which is right across the street from the Caltrain depot. 5-10 min ride max.San Francisco Amtrack Station need to rent a hotel room close to the Amtrack Station/?
No Amtrak stations in SF.





If you are coming from south of SF on Amtrak, then take the bus from the Emeryville station into SF. The bus stops near many hotels downtown.





But if you are coming from the North or East, take Amtrak to the Richmond station and then take BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) from there into the City. It is much faster than taking the train to Emeryville and then taking the bus.





Since there are no Amtrak stations in SF, you would want to look for a hotel that is either near a BART station (i.e. downtown) or near one of the Emeryville bus thruway stops.





The Emeryville bus thruway stops are mapped out on Amtrak's Bay Area service website: http://www.capitolcorridor.org/stations/鈥?/a>





Hope this helps you find a convenient hotel!San Francisco Amtrack Station need to rent a hotel room close to the Amtrack Station/?
