Beautiful, historic hotel - just lacks parking
Beautiful historical building and grounds. Lousy area kind of, and parking is terrible …cool rooms, if very small.

We were disappointed that the pool hours were for lap swimming only but for a couple hours on a couple days per week. There seemed to be no temperature control in the room - just a ceiling fan. Luckily for us, the temperature was acceptable. Rooms are small, bathroom is small. No parking was available one night but we weren't charged for it that night. Breakfast offered a nice variety of options with a quiet and formal vibe. We liked the hotel stay overall but perhaps the lack of modern updates would not warrant such high room rates.

The property is beautiful! The staff was very welcoming. The person that checked me in was very friendly and helpful after I arrived way too early. They made sure my bags were stored so I could go grab food. They also picked out a room with a view of the Golden Gate.

I truly enjoyed my stay at Berkeley City Club Hotel! As a solo traveler that spends lots of weeks on the road, this was a beautiful, safe, and classy place to stay. The history of the building shines through its character. There are lots of activities happening throughout the hotel -- I often heard someone playing the piano as I walked downstairs, or music lessons going on. The parking lot is incredibly convenient, and the staff are caring and welcoming. I grabbed a drink at the hotel bar, Morgan's, and loved the atmosphere. The hotel is right by the Cal campus, so there were students roaming up and down the streets on occasion. Overall, an incredible experience -- if you are in the area and looking for somewhere to stay, this is it!
