Donatello Social Events and educational seminars
Club
Donatello sponsors a broad variety of activities to make your stay in San
Francisco as lively and interesting as possible -- and to create
opportunities for Owners and Guests to meet one another and form new
friendships. Owners are notified of upcoming events via the semi-annual Communiqué.
Whether
or not you are an owner, if you would like to know about Social Events
and seminars as soon as plans are finalized,
subscribe now for electronic
notification and we'll alert you by e-mail when these pages are updated.
In
planning for Club Donatello activities, please remember these rules:
 |
If
an activity requires advance payment and you're paying by check,
your check must be received at the Club office at least seven days
before the event. Your reservation will be confirmed after the check
arrives. |
 |
If
you need room reservations, you must make these separately, through
the regular reservations procedure.
We remind you that all cancellations for room bookings must be
received by the Club at least 72 hours prior to your reservation
date:
- For owners using owner time, a
night will be subtracted from your balance of available nights.
For owners using Bonus time, a charge will be made to your
credit card for one night at the Bonus rate.
- For non-owner guests, a charge will be
made to your credit card for one night at the rate agreed to on
the reservation.
There
are no exceptions to this rule since a late cancellation may mean
that someone else was denied use of the room. |
 |
The
cancellation policy for events varies. In some cases, such as
theater tickets, there can be no refunds after the tickets are
bought, usually 30 days in advance. |
 |
If
you have additional questions, call the Club Owner/Guest Relations
team at 1-800-258-2366,
or fax 415-885-8886. |

City
Views and Landscapes
San
Francisco is one of the most beautiful cities in North America, if not the
world. It is certainly high on everyone's list of places to visit. It is
also a small city. Its attractions are located in dense concentrations
making walking tours very enjoyable and easy to do. While the city is
small and its attractions concentrated, San Francisco also has many
micro-climates and topographic differences. The city may be enshrouded in
fog on the west and north sides and basking in sunshine downtown at the
same time. The hills of San Francisco are as legendary in North America as
the hills of Rome.
In
addition, San Francisco is surrounded by beautiful countryside, vineyards
and wineries, coastline and Redwood forests, and islands in the Bay. Plan to
spend some time to visit the neighboring counties of the Bay Area.
Dining - reflects the diversity of the city
San
Francisco is famous for its great cuisine and world-class restaurants
which reflect the cosmopolitan tastes of the Bay Area and California. No
matter what your preference in flavors, styles and ethnic cuisines, you'll
quite likely find it in San Francisco.
Local attractions
San
Francisco is a visitor's dream. And the Club Donatello is the place
to start dreaming. Within a small radius you will find many of the City's
cultural, and scenic attractions. If you want to explore farther out,
public transportation and a car rental company are outside our door, as
are San Francisco's iconic cable cars.
San
Francisco is the home of the 49ers and the San Francisco Giants. Across
the bay in Oakland are the Raiders and the Oakland A's. Fans of
hockey will have to travel down the San Francisco peninsula to San Jose,
in the heart of Silicon Valley.
Bay
Area
There
is more to the Bay Area than San Francisco. Redwood groves, vineyards and
wineries, scenic shorelines, amusement parks, art colonies with occasional
open studios, organic farms and artisan cheese makers and bakers surround
the bay. The technology giants of Silicon Valley are just down the San
Francisco peninsula in the southern edge of the bay.
Shopping
San
Francisco has world-class shopping at Union Square and at the San
Francisco Shopping Centre - well-known names like Tiffany's, Gucci,
Versace, Ralph Lauren, Saks, Macy's, Bloomindales, Gump's, Levi Strauss,
Nieman Marcus, Abercrombie & Fitch, Kate Spade, Coach, among many
others - are all within a few short blocks of the Club Donatello. For a
comprehensive overview of the shopping opportunities in our Union Square
neighborhood, visit unionsquareshop.com.
