Top Lake Temescal Hotel Reviews

Graduate by Hilton Berkeley

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our short stay here and was aware it was an historic older hotel. They truly have made the most of this building, esthetically and comfortably. We chose to stay here due to the location and short walk to the Greek theater. (Super easy!) There was plenty of parking and be aware that there are actually two parking lots behind the hotel (not just one small one.) We booked a King room so I'm sure it was larger than some. It had plenty of space and an in room sofa too. The bed was comfortable and the room was very clean. We loved the eclectic college theme in the hotel. The restaurant was nice, good food, and appreciated the $25. credit that comes with the booking. Only wish they had been open for lunch. The one suggestion we have is to add a vending machine. There were some snack items and energy drinks near the front desk, but no sodas. However they did provide a couple water bottles in the room fridge which was appreciated. Lastly, I wish to compliment the friendly and helpful staff. We would definitely stay here again when in Berkeley!"

Bayview Motel

8/10 Good

"Surprisingly efficient for a one night stay. Key stopped working a few times."

Iconic Airstream Retreat w/ Hot Tub

10/10 Excellent

"The stay was really wonderful. The airstream was cozy with nice amenities. It was in a super charming location, nestled in a backyard. All instructions were super clear and things functioned as they should. The just was very responsive to any questions."

Hotel Shattuck Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"Always a great stay! Nice staff, EXCELLENT restaurant and bar (it could stand alone as a high end restaurant without the hotel)."

Signature Inn Oakland

8/10 Good

"Great little hotel close to the Kaiser hospital. Tight parking but a comfy clean room waking distance to a number of great restaurants."

Bay Bridge Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice and neatly kept. Room was very small but very clean and comfortable. Excellent for a one night stay! Highly recommend."

Nash Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"No short term parking at entrance, but people seem to double park with impunity. Ring the bell and someone will let you in; take elevator to Mezzanine to check in. Real keys--one for front door, one for the room. Comfortable bed. Fridge with separate freezer (no ice tray), single serve coffee maker, microwave and hot water kettle. King room with bath had closet with hangers, iron and ironing board. Hair dryer in dresser drawer. No outlets in bathroom, mirror over desk. Nash Cafe next door open 5pm til late. 2 blocks to Downtown Berkeley BART station, 2 blocks to edge of Cal Berkeley campus. Lots of restaurants, shops and bars nearby. Check for Farmer's Market schedule. Note: parking at Center Street garage is (in September 2026) $25 per day PLUS $25 overnight."

Treetop Refuge in Oakland Hills

10/10 Excellent

"This is the second time I stayed here. It won't be my last."

Remodeled Cottage in Trendy Berkeley/Oakland Rockridge Area

10/10 Excellent

"The cottage did not seem newly remodeled; scuffs on walls, the bath linens and some of the furniture somewhat worn, but I give it 5 stars because it felt comfortable, clean enough, safe, quiet, and close enough to BART (about 12 minutes walk for me) and cafes so I didnt need a car, that was very convenient! Also, Chris was responsive and helpful."
