shuttle, BART or taxi?

Assuming we don%26#39;t have too much luggage, which would be the most inexpensive way of getting from the SF airport to the Orchard Garden Hotel at 466 Bush Street?

Please keep in mind efficiency as well. I don%26#39;t mind taking the BART (which I%26#39;m sure is the cheapest) as long as I don%26#39;t have too far a walk to the hotel. It looks like it%26#39;s about a mile?

The most inexpensive is BART, indeed. Your walk is far less than a mile. It%26#39;s 0.3 mile, tops.



From SFO, find the Airtrain, which is the intra-airport shuttle to various locations, including the SF Int%26#39;l Airport BART station. Airtrain is free. Buy a BART ticket for each member of your party to either Powell Street or Montgomery Street stations. Your hotel is between both, so it doesn%26#39;t really matter which one you choose, and the fare isn%26#39;t any different: $5.15



You hotel is on Bush between Kearny Street and Grant Ave., so it%26#39;s a short walk from either station. If you use the Powell station, exit from the Stockton Street side. If you use the Montgomery Street station, exit from Montgomery.
