Visiting Russian Hill and Nob Hill is one thing but staying there is a pain as it really is a hill!!!

There are lots of other neighborhoods if you want to actually visit the city but I understand that often cruisers like to stay near the port.

Lived in the saddle between the two hills for twenty plus years, near the Broadway Tunnel. 

 

This is where I literally walk to work and home uphill both ways until they finally put in a bus line.  Lived on the west side and worked was on the east side walking on Pacific Avenue.

We stay at the Ritz Carlton at Nob Hill on most of our visits to the city.

We love the location and that includes the hill or whatever you call it.

 

Beautiful views as we walk from there down to other areas and we feel we are getting lots of exercise to burn off the calories from the wonderful cuisine that we enjoy in this fantastic city.

We’ve stayed at The Fairmont and just made sure we had a Muni pass for the Cable Car and bus to get up and down the hill
