Top Southwest Berkeley Hotel Reviews

Bay Landing San Francisco Airport Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"clean room"

The Marina Inn on San Francisco Bay

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay! The property was clean and well-maintained, and the staff were excellent, friendly, and accommodating. The location was great, and we especially enjoyed the excellent breakfast selection. Free parking and complimentary Wi-Fi were added bonuses. We only wish we could have stayed longer! We would definitely recommend this hotel and would love to return."

Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

8/10 Good

"Fantastic location in San Francisco. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom very small, but sufficient, with good bathtub and shower. Upkeep of hotel could be better. The window in the bathroom was left partially open, and could not be shut, for example. Upkeep on this old historic hotel was less than ideal. However, the location is so good and the staff are so nice, with a good price, that I'll return. Next door to Sears Fine Foods, which is a SF legend and a must for breakfast. Across the street from Beacon Grand Hotel, which has a fantastic cocktail bar and great environment. If you are looking for luxury, then this is not your hotel. If you are looking for a solid hotel with good staff, great price and great location in San Francisco, this is very good."
