No TV in the room? No fridge? No microwave? No AC or Ceiling fans? Fees are a bit pricey to be missing so many amenities.

Clean. Nice historic architecture, and close to the Greek Theatre.

Information about exceptional parking fees could have been provided before one confirms the booking. Not that anyone would likely cancel over the fees - but a 4 day stay would cost well over $100 in parking fees alone.

To use the pool, needed to purchase bathing cap. Great deal at $4. Parking was $29 per day - rather exorbitant.

my room was not for a party of 2. It also did not seem like a "Queen" size bed/room -- my daughter felt a bit claustrophobic.

it was convenient to my medical appointment and front desk staff for extremely kind and accomodating.

Opt non-corner room had only one window. No a/c—stuffy at night. No TV is good for us—but maybe not for you.

Interesting, historic building. Lovely architecture and great location to walk around Berkeley. Breakfast nice enough.

Signing up for the pool but understand

Close to the concert to walk, clean, quiet and would stay again.

The rooms are small and not sound proof.

The place is beautiful with a lot pf atmosphere. It’s not your chain hotel room. There is a beautiful patio. The location is near downtown and the university.

The history of the building, and experiencing Julia Morgan’s work in real time. The amount of caring details she implemented was so impressive. It is quite clear that she not only wanted to provide the women of Berkeley with a wonderful center, but one where beauty, grandeur and comfort was available to all. She gave each project on which she worked her full creative heart.

The shower was super low pressure and don’t go out so much water

All the building it’s beautiful 🧡

I was confused by the lack of masks being worn at wedding event on the terrace that I could see from my window. Perhaps there was an agreement. Otherwise, the hotel was very clear about its masking policy in all shared parts of hotel.

Gorgeous interiors, loved my room on top floor, access to historic pool, simple breakfast in beautiful dining room. I also loved the little courtyard and appreciated access to coffee/tea.

The complimentary breakfasts were very basic. Coffee, a pastry, fruit, and a small sugared yoghurt. It was nice but don’t expect any warm foods or a variety of options (at least not at this time). The shared wall in our room was quite thin and we heard our neighbors quite a bit. This is to be expected in an old heritage building but if neighbors happen to be loud you will definitely wake up. Be aware that they charge a bit for parking.

We loved the historic building with almost all original details intact. It’s really a masterpiece. Staff was wonderful. Our double room on the 5th floor was super clean and comfortable with ample wardrobes. Most importantly it had a fantastic view San Francisco from our room. The pool was another gem. A pleasure to look at and large enough for a couple of exercise swims.

Nothing was in unacceptable. It’s a beautiful building and the atmosphere is almost old world leisurely.

Breakfast was standard. Dining room was beautiful

The breakfast in a box could have been better.

The location

Stayed in July 2021

Would have liked some garbage cans on our floor. We got take-out, and since there was no housekeeping for our room, it would have been nice to have a garbage can available on the floor we were on.

Love this hotel. Bedding was comfortable and room was very clean. Staff was great and wandering around the property was quite nice. This is my second stay, and we will stay again.

Great access to UC Berkeley campus and nearby Berkeley. Coffee bar is convenient.

The potted plants,half dead, in the black PLASTIC pots were sad and disappointing to look at. Julia would be aghast! These are on the outside of the dinning room windows. The large ceramic pots (2) that are also visible have half dead plants in them. Very disappointing because the rest of the rooms and building are kept to a standard Julia would approve of. Maybe herbs or annuals or rosemary in the pots as a suggestion.

The breakfasts were delicious and the staff was friendly and efficient. The room was comfortable to be in. The bed was friendly to my back. The shower pressure was terrific for such old plumbing. The front desk staff were welcoming and efficient. The parking was a huge advantage.So easy in and out.

Wifi in the room was a bit spotty. There is no TV, but who needs TV?

Architecturally stunning, if you like 1920's Julia Morgan style. Large beautiful public rooms filled with books, even a working area with tables and free coffee, and a grand piano. Beautiful breakfast room with white table clothes and very nice pastries. An amazing ~75 ft long pool which was nearly empty in the early evening. My room had a beautiful view of the Berkeley hills. Thick towels, nice linen. Very helpful and friendly staff.

The place is very old, and for some that may be part of its charm, but for us, it was dowdy not charming. It’s the first hotel I’ve stayed at in the last 15 years that didn’t have a television in the room. The room was very tiny And the heating system had tremendous clanks.

Not much to say positive about the property, except that the continental breakfast was very complete and nicely prepared.

It was a bit expensive, but I'm coming from CAD so that's probably a factor.

The decorate is beautiful and the location is perfect for any event at Berkeley.
