What guests think

Across recent reviews of The Berkeley Hotel, guests consistently praise the central, walkable location and generally friendly staff, while noting that ongoing renovations and a mix of updated and dated rooms create uneven, sometimes noisy experiences.

Many rooms are spacious and some have balconies or city views, but others feel worn, have limited in-room tech, temperature controls capped around 68°F, or face brick walls and street noise. Facilities are basic for downtown: no fitness center, parking is mostly paid valet or nearby garages, and the onsite restaurant earns mixed feedback for hours and service despite several compliments on food. Cleanliness and maintenance can be inconsistent, ranging from spotless to dusty vents or odors. Expect a classic, convenient stay with trade-offs while renovations continue.

Overall it was a decent experience, staff were friendly. Not the best location for parking but there is a public garage across the street. Valet at $32 is the rate at hotel. No fridge. A/C unit kicked on with a loud clunk. Reading reviews there is talk of renovations for two years.

Only think I don’t like was had to park in Parking Garage and pay extra for parking. They offer valet but would have had to pay a whole lot more to park. I feel for price paid that The Berkeley Hotel should give a voucher to customers to pay for parking garage fees

The hotel is very old but very nice inside everything was clean. They are remodeling was very disappointed because everything they said they had on the hotels.com. They did not have. They did not have a gym that we could use. They did not have breakfast lunch or dinner except for on certain days and we still didn't know what those were Was difficult to find a breakfast spot. The hotel itself was very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and very attentive. The rooms were very clean. It was close to the convention center, which is where we were going.

The hotel is under renovation, but it doesn't seem to be a holistic approach. Some things are very modern and new-looking, while other things are literally falling apart and filthy. The room itself could be very impressive, but several of the new(ish) brass fixtures were installed incorrectly (towel bars upside down) or in odd locations (covering an electrical outlet, for instance). My room was spacious, quiet and clean, but once stepping into the common spaces, there was a stale odor and the carpet and other aspects weren't clean. There is little-to-no soundproofing of rooms, and the room doors slam shut noisily. The downstairs restaurant opened very briefly on Sunday, but nobody came and, after I came back from a 30-minute walk to the capitol, it was closed. Hopefully the renovation will address all these issues.

The room had no view or sunlight. It looked into a dark narrow alley. The room was not clean and outdated. There was nail polish all over the carpet and the bathroom walls had stains all over them. The key to the room never worked more than a few hours. I had to ask the staff for a new card each time.

Loved the location! Our bathroom was not as clean as one would like. Even after letting the front desk know the situation, nothing was done. We bought Clorox wipes and cleaned it ourselves. When we told the manager our problem she reduced our rate—we would have much preferred a clean bathroom to begin with.

Hotel was charming and clean. The room was spacious and nicely decorated.. Staff was friendly with good service. Our only complaint was that our room reeked of cigarette smoke. It was awful. We asked for a different room, but they were supposedly fully booked.it really ruined the stay. Room 414.

I'll start with the service because that was great. Front desk and valet/bellhop were friendly and courteous each time I ran into them. Got checked in 3 hours early which is always a welcome perk. Housekeeping was also very warm and kind. Where this hotel falls short are the conditions. I paid $310 for a room that had cobwebs, stains on the lampshade, stains on the carpet, a dirty terrace, and mattresses that need to be changed because you literally sink into them and not in a good way. The room is extremely dated with peeling wallpaper in the bathroom and no mini fridge. In no way can this be classified as a 4 star hotel. I get that it has historical value and that can be maintained even with some updates. There are much better hotels downtown for a better price unless you want a terrace. That is where The Berkeley is unique.

I got one of the renovated rooms with balcony and it was awesome! The staff were friendly and helpful. The location was also great on a street with some good restaurants. The only downside was that the renovation was ongoing so there was a bit of construction related noise & activities happening during the stay. But they were quite considerate so I wasn't really bothered by it.

What a lovely downtown small hotel! Just what we were looking for. The balcony on the street was great- wonderful place to sit outside and watch the city go by.

There was an horrible stitch when we walked in. The person at the desk seem to be immune to it. It spelled like mold or damp carpet. The restaurant was barely operational. We went down Saturday early afternoon and we were told we couldn’t order food because they had a large party they weren’t expecting. We went down at 11:35 PM on Sunday and we were told we couldn’t order food because the kitchen was closed. Only to find that 15 minutes later, they were serving food to another party. I really love this hotel the first time but this time I was mostly disappointed.
