I stay at this hotel every summer, and I want to give a big shout out to the front desk manager, Chauncey, for making every visit such a positive experience whenever she is on duty. Her professionalism and willingness to help make all the difference. It’s rare to meet a manager like Chauncey who is so present, approachable, and genuinely committed to delivering outstanding customer service.

The small bedroom I stayed in this time had a bit of a funky smell and could have used better ventilation. Other than that, I had another enjoyable stay.

I initially reserved this hotel because of the location and included breakfast. There were three of us staying in a Double Queen room. Though there are photos, already online, we were pleasantly surprised with how large the room is, along with the kitchen amenities and additional television. With the pocket door separating the kitchen/living room area from the beds, it is essentially a suite - which is very helpful when people have different sleep schedules! The rooftop restaurant is nice, especially with the view of the bay. Having the breakfast included is another nice convenience, despite having so many nice places nearby for food and drinks. The people taking care of the breakfast are prompt with removing your plates, etc. There is ample dining area in the lobby for breakfast, as well. There are ample breakfast choices to suit everyone's diet.

You really cannot beat this location. Besides being extremely close to UC Berkeley, there's many interesting neighborhoods you can walk to (eg. Gourmet Ghetto). It's easy to walk to the hotel from the Downtown Berkeley Bart Station. If you do not want the valet parking, you can park overnight at the North Berkeley Bart station, which is a two minute ride to the Downtown Berkeley Bart Station (ie. the hotel). There are numerous buses along nearby Shattuck Ave, as well (essentially, adjacent to the Downtown Berkeley Bart station)

All of the staff were very nice and welcoming. We had a very pleasant stay and will definitely return!

Excellent stay. We reserved several rooms for a wedding and the staff helped resolve an overbooked room issue. Didn't realize parking was valet only, but it turned out to be very convenient.

I have never been to this place before, but I gotta say it has exceeded in my expectations. Place is beautiful. The staff was excellent very helpful. The rooms were spotless. The amenities were on point. Everything is within walking distance, food transit theaters university all at your doorstep, I am definitely gonna be back at this location. Next time I visit Berkeley I definitely recommended to anybody who’s on their way there to stay in this location

Arrived mid night, it took a bit long to check in, but got a free room for my son and his girlfriend because the suite with two queen beds I booked was not available. Overall very happy with the stay in Residence Inn.

We stayed at this hotel to take part in our son's graduation from UC Berkeley. I appreciated that the theme of the hotel was about the graduates from Berkeley. They had a photo booth and the staff were very happy to snap some photos. The room was clean and spacious. I also like that the lobby is lively and comfortable to hang out. It fell very festive atmosphere to celebrate our son's graduation.

We stayed there for a track meet for my granddaughter that is in college.
I was very clean and all the people were kind.
Our room was clean and comfortable with a view of the city. Loved the lounge are with the fireplace and felt comfortable letting my girls go down and enjoy the area.
The buffet was very good and servers were pleasant.
I would definitely stay again.

fire alarm routinely gets pulled in middle of the night by homeless who can access it next door in the bank atm. happened to us at 1:30 am and had to get up and evacuate. stairwell was full of people at the second floor and below. if there was a fire we would’ve been stuck there. stay somewhere else until they fix this issue

My family and I always enjoy staying at Residence Inn—it’s our top choice whenever we visit Berkeley.
The hotel is only about a 5-minute walk from the campus and very close to BART, with plenty of shops and great restaurants nearby.
The room is very well organized, the bathroom is spotless, and the bed is perfectly comfortable—not too soft or too firm. Having a kitchen in the room is extremely convenient and makes our stay even better.
I especially want to mention the front desk service—Georgina is amazing! She is extremely attentive, friendly, and always provides professional and thoughtful service. Thank you for making our stay so pleasant!
Great location with clean, spacious rooms and the best front desk service. Highly recommend this place—we will definitely be back!

I had a fantastic stay at the Residence Inn by Marriott Berkele! The location was extremely convenient and just a short walk to Edwards Stadium, which made it perfect for catching a Cal Women’s Soccer game. Go Bears! 🐻⚽

The front desk staff were welcoming and professional, making check-in and any questions throughout the stay a breeze. I also really appreciated the team in the dining room. They were friendly and attentive, helping start each day off right.

I’d definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Berkeley, especially if you're here to support Cal Athletics!

Valet parking only

We drove our spare car and it’s pretty old. A BMW pulled up and the guy was getting everything out of the trunk, putting it on the luggage carrier and completely helping the people. We pull up, we’re not greeted, we have to walk up to the valet and ask them if there’s other parking since they were ignoring us. My husband went and checked in and he had to get everything out of the car himself no offer of help. Another car pulled up, a Lexus, and they were helped very fast as well. People were being helped based on the car they had. Husband gave them the key and we came to our room. The funny thing is we would’ve tipped. And because we drove my husband’s crappy car, we got crappy service from the valet. The room is amazing. The front desk staff was amazing.

The parking is rather expensive. We gave our number and ticket to the valet who ending up forgotting about us. After waiting 15 mintues and watching other guests get in their cars, we asked where ours was. The valet said he would go get it. No apology for forgetting about us; no apology for the long wait. A rather disappointing end to an otherwise nice stay. Unfortunately, that's what sticks in my head about this property.

I had an extremely nice stay, location is convenient for the university and for restaurants and breakfast is great.
My only complaint is that after my stay I had an unexplained charge from the hotel of about $90 on my credit card (beyond the room price).

Heart of the City, with Comfort of Your Home

We stayed as a family with our 3 children for 24 nights and 25 days. Apart from the rude behavior and unbecoming attitude of the valet staff at the Residence Inn Berkeley, one of the most beautiful spots in the city, everything was wonderful. We loved the cleanliness and spaciousness of the rooms, the friendly staff, and the entire team, including Brenna Miller, Gabriela, Teresa, Rachana, Maili, Maria, An Max?, Iris, Gregory, and a gentleman with a mustache and white hair whose name we couldn't get, who did the cleaning. They made us feel like family. While the breakfast wasn't as rich and varied as a Turkish breakfast, we were satisfied and pleased. We would have liked more halal options. The lack of free parking and the extremely slow Wi-Fi were disappointing. Having to eat on the 12th floor and enjoy the view for just 25 days was a bit heartbreaking for us.
