Proximate hotels - walking distance to Motel Capri
The Motel Capri is located at the corner of Greenwich and Buchanan in San
Francisco’s Marina District. Greenwich runs parallel to LOMBARD the main
north/south artery and is one short off Buchanan. Buchanan intersects the
18/1900 block of Lombard.
With the exception of the Hotel del Sol located on the corner of the 2000
block of Greenwich most of the facilities are on Lombard. You can gauge the
walking distance from the addresses.
A word of caution should you elect to find accommodation through Google or a
comparable search engine. Many of the facilities that pop up, all claiming to
be in the Marina district, are in fact nowhere close. Consult a map if you
want a place within walking distance of the Capri.

Great hotels
The Marina district, especially Union St. and Chestnut, is one of the nicest
parts of San Francisco. Fort Mason, the bay, and the Marina Green are all
within a reasonably short walk , most of the shops are unique , there are
many excellent restaurants, and the homes are beautiful. The hotels in the neighborhood are of varying quality. The first ones were built to accommodate the builders of the Golden Gate Bridge in the 1930's. After the bridge was finished they evolved into traveling family motels and those built later conformed to this idea. None are new or even built recently. San Francisco has many great hotels. For those of you that want to take advantage of these I've prepared a short list. Regrettably none are in the neighborhood. A taxi or other transportation will be needed to visit the show. San Francisco has quite a few
great hotels but rather than list them all we will list only 2 with
the idea that any hotel is more fun if you bump into your friends and
acquaintances.
Palace Hotel, 2 New Montgomery St., 1 415 512-1111 www.sfpalace.com
Hotel Nikko, 222 Mason St., 1 415 394-1111, www.hotelnikkosf.com
Both of these hotels have good food, a great swimming pool, excellent
service, and pleasing environment. The Palace Bar has several wonderful
original Parish paintings while the Nikko is close to Union Square. We suggest
that you book in groups if possible to get good rates. Also, it might pay to
keep your eye on the net of special offers. Good luck.
