I'm coming in on Friday with my GF. We were thinking of staying somewhere else for the weekend while she's there, then I'd move to my hotel on Sunday which is next to the convention center. Are there any places to stay in SF that are better for sight seeing and with more things to do than where I'm staying for the convention, or is that the best location to be?

2. Go to Twin Peak for an overview of the city. Great view.
3. Drive to Treasury Island for the best view of the downtown area, especially at night.
4. Go to see the boat houses in Sausalito
5. Take a walk at bay at Marina district (Fort Mason).

The best thing about SF is the food. Unfortunately, downtown is expensive and not that great. My favorites are all in residential districts (Mission, Sunset, Richmond etc). You can find any kind of food in SF - French, Italian, Spanish, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Vietnamese, Indian, Indonesian, Mexican.... you name it.

Mission district (Mission or Valentia, from 16th Ave to 24th Ave) is great for food and night life. Go to Irvine and 19th St for Asian food (mainly Chinese), and go to Japan town for Japanese (and Korean).
