We stayed at this hotel for four nights. The cost of the stay was the same using various websites or the hotel's own site and cost $100 for a large room as we were travelling with our teenage daughter. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, including the night staff as we arrived very late after a flight from the... more

We checked into The Donatello for 3 nights, August 20-22nd. The hotel is in a great San Francisco location: about 3 blocks from the Street Car turn-a-round on Powell St.; the same distance to the BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) Powell stop; with Trolley Cars and Buses all nearby. Note: a BART ride to SFO (San Francisco International Airport) is... more

The staff at the Donatello was very professional and friendly during our four night stay. We checked into room 915 which was considered a “quiet” room. I was afraid that our view would be the wall of another building but luckily we had a half way decent view of the Clift & Hilton hotels a block or two away. To... more

We really enjoyed our stay. The bed was good, the room was clean, the shower was nice and strong, and the decor was really cool.

We had a microwave, sink unit and... more

The hotel is at walking distance to the great union square and many shops, restaurants,bars and even a drug store. The room was clean, confortable, a/c (we never... more

I join the chorus of admirers on TripAdvisor who recommend this hotel for its excellent location, large rooms, consistent service and undeniable value. Our very large, king-bedded room on a high floor featured a clean, small bath with marble surfaces and expectable amenities. We were told that it was on "Club Level," which may or may not indicate a premium... more

We loved our time here--the central location cannot be beat. One block from the cable car line, and walking distance to tons of restaurants and shops. We did not notice much noise like other reviews mentioned, exept on Saturday night. Quite a few revelers in town for the Memorial Day weekend. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the... more
