Downtown San Francisco Hotel Near Chinatown
The Alexander Inn is a six-story downtown San Francisco hotel in the heart of the city. Built in 1908 and recently renovated, it retains its old-style charm while providing modern conveniences. The hotel is located close to the San Francisco theatre district, Union Square, the Civic Center, and the world famous Cable Cars that offer classic transportation to Fisherman's Wharf and many other major San Francisco attractions.
Established in the 1850s, San Francisco's Chinatown is the Nation's oldest, and is one of North America's largest Chinatowns.Within Chinatown there are two major thoroughfares. One is Grant Avenue, with the famous Dragon gate on the corner of Bush Street and Grant Avenue; St. Mary's Park that boasts a statue of Dr. Sun Yat-Sen; a war memorial to Chinese war veterans; and an incredible variety of stores, restaurants and mini-malls that cater mainly to tourists. The other, Stockton Street, is frequented less often by tourists, and it presents an authentic Chinese look and feel, reminiscent of Hong Kong, with its produce and fish markets, stores, and restaurants. Chinatown boasts smaller side streets and alleyways that also provide an authentic character.
