Here's how I find hotels for cheap in SF--go to Priceline.com and bid on a room. I've stayed at the Hyatt by the Embarcadero for $100 per night (less than half the standard rate) and at several boutique hotels for $85 (again, less than half the standard rate). When you bid, specify that Financial District/Embarcadero, 4-star hotel, and start bidding at $80. You'll get a great price.
