Top Uptown Oakland Hotel Reviews

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Room was nice and clean quiet night"

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Berkeley Marina

8/10 Good

"A lovely break and great views. Has the potential to be a 5 atar review but rip off prices for car parking for guests, high costs if restaurant food/drink and variable customer service mean its a 4. Lady who checked us in was amazing, lady who checked us out not. Staff who seated us in restaurant on day 1 2 and 3 great day 4 not. Manager snapped at staff in shop about talking when on shift which wasnt nice. Shop staff great but prices high. 2nd stay and would stay again."

Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

10/10 Excellent

"I love this hotel. It is old but they have done a great job of updating and renovating & embracing the old and new. I love that i got to take a bath in a deep tube after a long daybof walking. The beds are comfortable, the rooms are clean. The location is great! Would definitely recommend and go back!"

Hilton San Francisco Airport Bayfront

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was great and friendly. We were able to check in early before we attended a wedding later in the day. Room was clean, comfortable bed and pillows. Bathroom could have been renovated with a few cracked tiles in floor and scuff marks on walls but otherwise clean."
