Nice hotel but should have considered a less expensive one on the outskirts since a car was still needed at this hotel.

parking = $17/day

A room facing the skyline across the bay is preferable.

Enjoyed a romantic anniversary dinner here. Allow plenty of arrival time for a dinner reservation as evening parking can be a problem. There was traffic from local theaters, restaurants, and wedding receptions in the park the night we went.

Recommended if you like historic hotels and you do not have a car. Otherwise consider saving money by staying at a hotel outside the plaza such as Homewood Suites.

If you do decide to stay at La Fonda, be sure to check out their package deals on their website, such as 3rd night free.
