    Very beautiful, old, chic luxury hotel with "good audience" in a beautiful hillside location.

    What I had never experienced before: The menu of the main restaurant is tiny compared to the one of the room service! What's the point of that? This makes no sense at all, because not everyone wants to eat in the room if they want a little more choice.

    The room was exquisitely spacious with a large comfortable king bed and an equally spacious bathroom; I highly recommend this place as I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here.

    The staff at The Claremont Club & Spa were top-class with over 15 years of service. The room was newly remodeled and well-appointed. The bed was comfy. The location was stunning and in a lovely neighborhood. The hotel was not far from Berkeley, the bay, San Francisco, and other restaurants in Berkeley/Oakland. I loved my stay and would recommend this place to others.

    This place is a fantastic historic hotel with a stunning view of the bay and a stylish outdoor restaurant for dinner.

    Getting to be in historic hotel in town that my grandparents and elder relatives were from They would have been teenager when property first opened and my visit was to retrace the memories of my childhood stays with them in their nearby home. Having a view of the bay bridge and stars while dining al fresco was lovely. I liked using the whirlpool and spa as well as the fitness facility on location to take Zumba. There was a very well scheduled group activity program at the club.

    It was cold sitting outside but worth it to me for the ambience. (would have been a plus to have lap robes provided) I had booked a king bed bayview but got a room with 2 queens. While I had a bay view, it was from a recessed room on 2nd floor and I had rooftop view below me, as well as view of the adjacent wings windows. It wasn't bad, just not a grand as I had envisioned.You definitely hear people come and go from their rooms and their conversations when they return to their rooms. But bed was comfortable, I was tired and they eventually got settled in for the night, so I had a great night's sleep.

    We should have been told at check in that the breakfast is continental for guests until 9.30am and that hot breakfast runs after that. We went down at 10.30am on Sunday and were told that there was an hour wait for a table even though we were guests of the hotel.

    Stunning views of the bay 😍, chic restaurant for a delicious meal. Comfortable and convenient spot for checking out nearby eateries and nightlife options.

    We loved the grandeur and history of the building, excellent views and facilites and an excellent room service menu - greatly appreciated by tired travellers with hungry teenage boys. We all felt that we were staying somewhere really special. Good value for money even with the resort (26$ for a 5 people is really nothing!). It must be said that the weather this side of the bay is much better than in San-Francisco and the Marin valley area. SF is a short ferry ride from Oakland which is a 15 minute drive from the Claremont.

    The Paragon restaurant was very crowded and the food very basic. My daughter's children's menu was quite poor. Much better restaurants in Berkley.
