Where to stay

Union Square has most major hotels, the best transit links, and Kin Khao downstairs at Parc 55. Embarcadero hotels are steps from Saturday's market; Mission Bay/SoMa suits the two Warriors games. Fisherman's Wharf hotels sit on Sunday's parade route, so expect closures that morning. Civic Center/Hayes Valley is walkable to Davies for Sunday's Symphony matinee and the Head West market. https://www.sftravel.com/neighborhoods


Assumptions and refresh
  • Public data only. Re-checked Fri Nov 6, 2026, about 10:05–10:15 pm PT: NWS forecast grid and active alerts (api.weather.gov), Caltrans District 4 news index and the new Marin CAPM release, BART advisories page and BSA/elevator API, A.C.T., Foodwise, SF Zoo ZooLights, SFMTA parade page, Warriors game page and schedule, State Bird Provisions and Kin Khao sites, and indexed Michelin text (direct Michelin fetch returns 403). Nobody was contacted and nothing was signed up for.
  • Window is Sat through Mon.
  • This is a snapshot. Urban Concierge - Bay Area refreshes it every 8 hours (6 am, 2 pm, 10 pm PT). Times are Pacific standard time. Prices appear only where a cited page lists them.
Not verified
  1. Yelp ratings (blocked); reservation availability not checked.
  2. Every Saturday Night showtimes and prices; Symphony ticket prices (Symphony page bot-walled; Sunday date carried from earlier official confirmation).
  3. ZooLights per-day hours and prices carried from the 2 pm check (page re-confirmed for dates only).
  4. Warriors vs. Pelicans: no individual game page read, only the official schedule listing; ticket prices not checked.
  5. Head West Marketplace hours and vendors (only SFMTA's closure notice confirms it).
  6. Hospital Curve, Bay Bridge and SR-29 releases weren't re-read in full tonight; still listed on the Caltrans index.
  7. Lime and Spin pricing; Bay Wheels pricing carried.
  8. Mill Valley ramp closures depend on tides; no Caltrans schedule.
What changed since the last brief

What changed since the last brief (Fri 2:05 pm): Window rolls forward to Sat–Mon, so Friday-only events and Friday daytime Caltrans work drop off. Added Monday: Warriors vs. Pelicans (7 pm) and the Marin US-101 night closures resuming Mon 10 pm (new Caltrans release). NWS alerts reissued 6:31 pm Fri with a Monday high tide (~10:35 am, 7.4 ft MLLW). Sunday now partly sunny, near 69. BART: one elevator out at Berryessa; Yellow Line single tracking starts again Mon night. Restaurant picks rotated to State Bird Provisions and Kin Khao.
