    General Information

    • Hotel
      The Argonaut Hotel will be the base for the weekend events. It is located in the historic Aquatic Park neighborhood of San Francisco and situated on the edge of Fisherman’s Wharf, steps from the Maritime National Historical Park, Ghirardelli Square, Hyde Street Pier, and the Powell & Hyde Cable Car Turnaround.    




    • Restaurants
      The Blue Mermaid Restaurant is located in the hotel. There are also many great choices close by including Cioppino’s, Boudin’s, McCormick & Schmidt’s, the famous Scoma’s, and the even more famous Buena Vista Café (don’t forget a world famous Irish Coffee!)



    • Transportation
      There are 3 airports that you can fly into. The San Francisco International Airport (SFO) and San Francisco Bay Oakland International Airport formerly known as Oakland International Airport (OAK) are the two closest airports to The Argonaut Hotel. San Jose International Airport (SJC) is located in the south Bay Area. It is an option if the price is in your favor, but not recommended due to its distance from San Francisco.  
      Getting from the airport to the hotel we recommend Taxi, Uber, or Lyft.

      Getting around San Francisco we recommend walking, taxi, Uber, or Lyft. (The location of the hotel has a large amount of attractions within walking distance.)
