The hotel looks beautiful from afar, but actually staying there it feels and looks dated with some obvious room for improvement. The room felt worn with multiple scuffs and dings left and right (on the walls, the furniture, carpeting, etc)...it doesn't feel high quality whatsoever). That being said, the rate we secured was super reasonable ($285/night) day-of on a Thursday, so I was fine with it. I would not have been happy had I paid anything beyond $400, though. Additionally, the prices for food, beverages, spa treatments, etc. are exorbitant and feel like an insane ripoff for what they are. We ordered room service for dinner which had limited options, but was good and nicely portioned (better be for the cost!), but 22% gratuity built in on top of another 10ish% service charge and a delivery fee...you know what you're getting, I guess. Provisions was good, but also overpriced, and feels like a clunky ordering experience. The people working there are SUPER nice and accommodating, but the lines are constant and it feels like it could be more efficient overall. We have also used the pool facilities multiple times and they also feel like they are in dire need of updates. It's amazing to have access to such large, resort-level amenities, but the kids pool and surrounding area felt dirty, the pool chairs look and feel really basic, the staff seem overworked and do not help with getting set up. Again, if I had paid more I would be annoyed. Food for thought!

Jonas was an excellent front desk clerk! Not only was he so welcoming me to the Claremont Hotel, but he worked personably to help me find the room the best fit my wishes - and the room was spot on! Jonas took his time, stayed focussed and is exactly what the brand would want as the first person to greet guests!

A historical hotel, it was my first time being here, and enjoyed the status of it. They were doing renovations and construction, but were mindful of quiet hours. I appreciate that they are maintaining it to keep it as a nice resort. I would stay here again if there were more deals and value available.

The bayview room option didn't work too well as it was too bright one day and overcast the next! Possibly a better window shading option that allows viewing out clearly yet protects UV from one's eyes. The desk was also right against the window and the heavy chair was hard to move on the carpet. The bed was very comfortable! The resort fee covered a lot! We really enjoyed using the steam, suana and whirlpools in both men's and women's side!

A unique, historic hotel perched on a hill overlooking San Francisco Bay, built in 1916. Even though it is around $600, the large bay view king bed room is great! Even the huge bathroom has a window view of the bay.

The Claremont is wonderful. The location is great across the street from a wonderful bakery and some nice shops. A short 15 minute walk to campus a short Uber ride from BART and downtown Berkeley or Oakland. Wonderful facilities weight room spa and pool nice food options with a wonderful bay view. The best thing though was the wonderful staff who consistently went out of the way to meet our needs and make us feel welcome. 5/5 stars all the way.
