Meet in <strong>Sonoma</strong><br />

It’s not always wine and cheese in <strong>Sonoma</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> – we know how to get down to business<br />

as well. <strong>Sonoma</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> is also a great spot for pre- and post-convention meetups from San<br />

Francisco, Oakland and Sacramento. Here are some quick ideas on how to make the most of<br />

your <strong>Sonoma</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> meeting.<br />

CHOOSE THE RIGHT HOST HOTEL <strong>Sonoma</strong><br />

<strong>Valley</strong>’s lodging options for meetings include luxury<br />

resorts like the Lodge at <strong>Sonoma</strong> and Fairmont<br />

<strong>Sonoma</strong> Mission Inn & Spa, intimate high-end hotels<br />

like MacArthur Place and Kenwood Inn & Spa, as well<br />

as unique spots like Olea Hotel or Gaige House, both<br />

in Glen Ellen. For budget-conscious meetings, The<br />

Best Western <strong>Sonoma</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Inn has meeting space<br />

plus an enviable location just steps from the historic<br />

<strong>Sonoma</strong> Plaza.<br />

GET BEYOND THE BOARDROOM We get it:<br />

Table. Chair. Some coffee. But having a meeting in<br />

<strong>Sonoma</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> means you get to go beyond just<br />

the meeting room and take your group out for an<br />

amazing experience. Dinner in a wine cave? Cooking<br />

classes? A bike tour? <strong>Sonoma</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> is a world-class<br />

food and wine destination. Take advantage of the<br />

amenities for a great meeting.<br />

INVITE SIGNIFICANT OTHERS Our quaint,<br />

walkable towns and diverse landscape equates to<br />

things to do for any “plus-ones” that come along for<br />

the meeting. The <strong>Sonoma</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Museum of Art, the<br />

historic <strong>Sonoma</strong> mission and barracks and the shops<br />

and cafes that ring the <strong>Sonoma</strong> Plaza make for great<br />

diversions while the meeting is in session. At night,<br />

the wine country dining scene beckons for networking<br />

and socializing.<br />

BEST RATES COME WITH THE BEST DATES<br />

Northern California’s wine country has a Mediterranean<br />

climate, which means that when it’s snowy<br />

in Chicago or rainy in Seattle, it’s usually sunny and<br />

pleasant in <strong>Sonoma</strong>. The best values for meetings and<br />

groups are November through April, and Sundays<br />

through Thursdays. Being flexible with when you<br />

come for your meeting can mean finding the best<br />

rates and experiences for your group.<br />
