The bellboys and valet drivers were wonderful. The front desk staff were not very helpful. Didn’t want to ge bothered. I received no info other than my room number when I checked in. I had to call to have my room cleaned as well. All in all the hotel is good and we would stay again. The pool staff needs a little help as well.

I am very, very disappointed in the way I was treated at Berkeley Hotel. We were in the middle of hurricane Erin and could not leave our hotel beaches were closed. Pool was closed. Boardwalk was closed. Several shopping areas were open, but we had to drive to them. If we moved your car we would have to pay for parking all over again. Berkeley hotel did nothing at all to entertain us. No events planned in the hotel no complementary lunch or breakfast. Nothing was planned to accommodate our guest during the hurricane. I am very disappointed. I have asked to be credited a day because I was supposed to check out on Friday and due to staring at four walls for four days I decided to check out a day early also to add the four days that I stayed we had no maid that came in to clean our room make our beds give us clean towels I had to go to the front desk and ask for towels, garbage bags tissues, and so forth I am very very disappointed and also to add Expedia did not help me at all and try to get some type of help and getting some type of credit I would never book through Expedia again nor through Berkeley hotel

Honeymoon Stay

We had an amazing time at the Berkeley. We were on our Honeymoon. The stuff couldn’t have been more professional and polite. Building was in great shape and its location was perfect for walking around Asbury Park. Will certainly stay there again!

Just okay

It was alright. The shower wasn’t clean when we arrived & carpet for a beach vacation is kind of gross. It wants to be a boutique hotel but isn’t. The coffee in the morning is domino sugar packets and coffee-make creamers, for what you pay per night, a nicer set up would be great. The weirdest feature was there is a room next to the gift shop where the clothes guests have left behind are for sale for $50-100+. It’s really tacky.

The room was a nice size. Close to the beach. The parking was ridiculous- the price is different than listed. They charged 90$ for valet parking. Tried to call ahead of time to schedule my car pickup for departure. Took them over a half hour to get the car. Also front desk disappeared at night. Waited there over 20 min for someone to appear (while simultaneously calling them).

Would definitely recommend

The hotel is just right for us. It's across from the beach, there is a pool, its comfortable and clean. I would fix up the fitness gym and maybe some better choices for breakfast. Overall, It is my great escape!

Lovely property, I am disappointed at the fact that there is valet parking outside, but no one says that it’s going to cost you between $75-$100 to keep your car for the evening. Also, Expedia says that the price is exactly what you were going to pay and yet they charge you additional money once you get there.

Everything is walkable. The pool is great. Missing some personal touches. The front desk charges for an early check in even when a room is available. There is a $25 fee for WiFi which doesn’t work very well. The fee is also for bottled water and towels which are standard at hotels. The breakfast options during the week are limited, but for a getaway at the beach, it’s the best option. We would return back. We always enjoy our stay.
