Top Oakland Hotel Reviews

River Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, v helpful staff"

The Chicago Hotel Collection Ambassador Gold Coast

8/10 Good

"Lovely bar and Champagne room. For our first couple of nights the rooftop was inviting with firepit and sofas. Gorgeous! Last night, it had been almost emptied! Staff was so friendly but not very informative about the area. Room is very basic. No coffee maker in room. The soaps and shampoos very minimal. A grand hotel that seems a little tired! I believe room makeovers are scheduled!"
