When is the best time to go to Montclair?

The best time to visit Montclair is during spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) when the weather is mild and pleasant, ideal for outdoor activities. During these seasons, you'll experience comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 18°C to 25°C, with less humidity than the summer months. This makes it great for exploring the local parks, golf courses, or taking day trips to nearby attractions without the intense heat or the cooler, sometimes rainy, winter days. Couples looking for a relaxing getaway will appreciate the serene atmosphere during these shoulder seasons. You can enjoy strolls through the Montclair Plaza or visit local eateries without the peak crowds. The clear skies also offer excellent opportunities for scenic drives through the surrounding foothills. Families travelling with children will find the mild weather particularly favourable for outdoor fun.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel’s cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Montclair hotel for you.

How much is the nightly rate at a Montclair hotel?

Hotel prices in Montclair often vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. Different factors affect nightly hotel rates, such as the time of year or the days of the week you want to book. To find the best deals for your stay, be flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.

Top Montclair Hotel Reviews

Stanford Court San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"This was our first time staying at this hotel, and we definitely were not disappointed! All the staff were friendly from the moment we arrived. Our room was perfect; clean, great size, and had everything we needed. There is a bar and restaurant on the 1st floor and they also offer a great breakfast! The hotel is close to the wharf as well, which was great."

Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in an excellent location just a few steps from Union Square, the cable car stop, and the BART train station, not to mention all the clothing stores and food options around it. The room was clean and very comfortable with a refrigerator inside, and I really liked the free cookies, apples, and water in the lobby. However, the service from the lobby staff could be improved, as they misplaced my small suitcase and only found it after checking three times. Management should improve staff training so they follow protocols and do not affect customers. I would stay at the hotel again, but I would be careful with the lobby staff."

Grand Hyatt San Francisco

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel! Right in Union Square. Beds were very hard and pillows kind of sucked. But overall the rooms were nice and very clean. We were on the 29th floor which was a cool view Parking is horrible and because we have a bigger truck they couldn’t valet it and had no idea how to help us and just kind of left us to figure it out, Thankfully we found ONE garage down the street that took bigger vehicles (thanks ChatGPT for finding it)."
