“Love it!”

We preferred room in the older part of the hotel but not all rooms are alike, so take a look of you don't love your room. The staff couldn't be more accommodating. So charming and lovely there!

“Clear day at the Claremont”

Eucalyptus trees on the hill behind the hotel: palm trees in front with a view of San Francisco across the bay. Can't beat the vista.

“Truly Elegant Place - like stepping back in time”

Truly wonderful place. Antiques and memorabelia fill the hotel. Room was spacious, beds comfortable, bathroom was spotless. Employees were very friendly and helpful. The gym and exercise facility were top notch with numerous classes available which were included in the resort fee. Exquisite grounds and great view of the bay when it was clear.

“Always a pleasure”

I've stayed at the Claremont at least 10 times in the last several years and I always have a pleasant stay. The decorations for Christmas this year are beautiful and make the hotel feel even cozier. The giant gingerbread house in the lobby and the fake snow coming down are magical.

“The only place in Berkeley”

We had a party of six including two small chilldren. My only complaint is our two rooms were very far apart.

“A classic - in California”

I love the Claremont for its old school charm and its slightly funky layout. But don't think this place isn't first class. It is in every way. It's so nice to get away from the cookie cutter chains and get to something real and timeless. Absolutely great spa and health club comes with the deal. You can't beat it if you are wanting to stay anywhere near the area.

Area:

Berkeley, California, United States of America: The city’s radical spirit has endured at least on Telegraph Avenue by the UC Berkeley campus. Upscale shops have moved into the once industrial Fourth Street district. Foodies flock to the Gourmet Ghetto, which began in the 1970s with Chez Panisse. Berkeley Hills’ residents enjoy bay views and access to Tilden Park’s 2,000 acres. Visitors to the marina can stroll on the pier and explore the parks.
