Berkeley - Doubletree Marina 3.5*

My family stayed here for 2 nights on the weekend of 11/16/02. In brief, I think the hotel is over-rated and deserves a 2*.The hotel is primarily a facility for small conventions. It's really more of...

Re: Berkeley - Doubletree Marina 3.5*

I've stayed at this hotel and I would have to agree with the above comments. The hotel is very worn and was kept up better when it used to be a Marriott. It is an isolated location, so don't expect to...

This property did not show up when I was researching on radisson.com. Further research showed the property is now a Doubletree.

I thought DoubleTree had it pretty well organized. I just stayed there last weekend. We were warmly greated, excellent service. Didn't get a room with a view but what we got was still excellent. The...

Stayed here for 4 nights June 9-13. We really had a nice stay. While the facility is definitely not the newest and there were stains on some of the furniture, the rooms were very quiet and we didn't...

Yes, this hotel is showing its age in the carpets and scratched wallpaper and loose hinges. That stuff doesn't matter to me much though, and I'm happy I had the opportunity to stay here.Half the rooms...

Re: Berkeley - Doubletree Marina 3.5*

I stayed here 7/18 and I would do it again. I thought it was rather nice for a 2.5*. I've stayed in hotels rated higher by Priceline that were not as good as the 2.5* Doubletree. It's convenient to...

Re: Berkeley - Doubletree Marina 3.5*

I think it's fair to say that this hotel has designated "Priceline rooms". About 3/4 of the rooms here have some kind of view---either overlooking the Bay, or looking east to the Berkeley hills, or at...

Re: Berkeley - Doubletree Marina 3.5*

I am not used to staying in Berkley and this hotel is off the beaten track near the water and marina. It took me awhile to find the place from Oakland and rush hour traffic is a nightmare....

I've stayed at this hotel several times in the last 3-4 years and the property has shown consistent improvement with each passing year. Gone is the annoying harbor "gong" bell except during foggy...

I bid on a 3* in Berkeley and got the Doubletree so it has been upgraded to 3*. My son stayed here and loved it. Free parking is a big plus.
