At Oakland Marriott City Center, guests praise the central location by BART, modern rooms with city views, and especially the friendly, accommodating staff, while noting drawbacks like pricey parking, limited late-night dining, and occasional service or maintenance lapses.

Many highlight very comfortable beds and views, though a minority report small layouts, street or A/C noise, and slow or paid Wi‑Fi. The downtown setting is convenient for the Fox Theater, Chinatown, and transit, but several guests felt the surrounding area can feel unsafe at night. Overall, it's a practical base for downtown Oakland and nearby venues.

The Oakland Marriott City Center is located near a BART station making it really convenient if your trip plans include San Francisco and Berkeley. You can take the BART to/from SFO airport In about the same time as a rideshare. It's also walking distance from Oakland Chinatown. The room was clean and in good condition. The hotel gym met my needs. Onsite food options are limited, but there are many food options nearby.

The M Lounge offered breakfast, snacks, fruit, many drink options which was an added plus! The bar had a good selection and vibe. There were more areas I didn’t get to use while there but it seemed to be a good fit for large groups/conventions due to their ballroom space.

Large conference hotel in downtown Oakland, good location. Room was okay, nice work space, but I had a connecting room and the noise from the adjacent room (phone conversations) was way too loud. Facilities are otherwise fine, there is a good restaurant and bar, gym, and store.

Well known high rise hotel smack dab in downtown Oakland. Was very convenient for my needs. Very close to BART. If you’re driving; there is a hefty parking fee. My room was very small and kind of strange (triangle shape) but very clean and comfortable. The bedding was nice with feather comforter and feather pillows. I needed to recuperate from a family health crisis and I did not get off this bed for 20 hours!!! Very close walk to multiple coffee shops and farmer’s market. I would definitely stay here again.

Everything with the hotel was fine except for their air conditioner. It wouldn't cool down the room, as it was facing the wall rather than towards the room. And giant window (beautiful bldgs view) but not able to crack it for air. So it made my nights hard to get a decent rest. Temperature is everything to me.

There was nothing I did not like about my room except that the windows were dirty, so it was hard to take a picture of the view. I booked my reservations through Expedia. I called the hotel the day before to confirm my reservation to be told I did not have one. I then called expedia and their customer service rep also told me that I had no reservation. I then got online an booked and paid for a reservation at a higher cost than before. The first reservation was book now pay later. I checked into the hotel and was told that I had booked two reservations and because I had paid for one I could not get the lower price. I would also have to call Expedia to cancel the first reservation so that I would not be charged for a "no-show". This was a hassle and no one was very accommodating. I was fortunately, able to cancel the first reservation without being charged a fee. I have been using Expedia for years but I probably won\'t be using them anymore.

Marriott was fantastic!! No complaints at all!! I guess the only “issue” was our original room reeked of cigarette smoke and they immediately switched our room without any hesitation. Service was great & very friendly and professional from start to finish(staff, restaurant, valet, etc) Room was perfect!! Beds, pillows, shower, view etc! I wish there was a microwave in the room but they have one in the lobby so it worked out. We visit Jack London/Oakland frequently and this was our 3rd hotel and will have found our choice! We will be back again! Thank you Marriott!

We had paid for a king size bedroom with a city view. No information was given on how to operate the elevators. Because of this, we thought they were not working so we walked up the stairs for four floors. When we got to the room, it was a room with two queen beds with an obstructed view. I called to the front desk and they said that I was correct and switched rooms. I got a call a couple hours later stating that during our move, we left a water bottle in our original room. They said that they'd bring it right up. Nobody ever came as we waited an hour, pushing back our dinner reservation to wait. Later that night, we purchased ice cream from the lobby. There were no spoons in the lobby so the desk lady said she would have some sent up. We tried to put our ice cream in the fridge while we waited but the fridge was broken. After two additional calls down and an hour passing since our request, we finally got the spoons. By then, our ice cream was almost completely melted with no way to keep it cool. The next morning I called back to the lobby to inquire about my water bottle. She said they didn't have it. I asked to speak to a manager and was told there was no manager present. This was around 8 am so I'm surprised they wouldn't have a manager around at that time. They called back, finally found my bottle, and brought it to me. The room was great but the service was terrible. I expect more from a Marriott hotel. Super disappointing.

Parking is super expensive and you get charged for taking it in and out of the garage. The hotel is not accommodating when it comes to parking or giving a voucher if you do take it out of parking. The restaurant food in the Hotel was terrible, my sister ended up getting diarrhea. The French Toast was soggy. I usually can count on Marriott when all other hotels fail, but this one failed me too.

Apparently most of it isn't offered during the weekend, which I didn't know. But the staff during breakfast in the lounge was fantastic and helpful. Our room was very small but decent. The bathroom door was dirty, so that was unpleasant, otherwise, the room seemed clean. The beds were comfortable and the view from the 19th floor was nice.
