Red carpet service from the moment I pulled up to the moment I left… Upon arrival I was greeted by the lovely valet… I checked in and unbeknownst to me. I turned around and Javier I believe his name was was right in back of me with my complete car unpacked. As I was hosting a business conference, I naturally had to check in with my event specialist and go over some final details before I made my way up to transition from room two meeting. Javier was so patient and waited for me with my luggage and was by my side for at least an hour as I transitioned from check into… Check into the meeting space etc., and the room. I commend his customer service as five star doesn’t even cover it. I could give him a 10 at the very least. Moving on… The room was beautiful old but beautiful and had a great view. See below. Housekeeping of course was phenomenal but the real highlight here was the food. We ate at limewood as it is the only restaurant on site and every single time the food did not disappoint. I even hosted a party of 20 and a private dining room and even then the food was extraordinary. Oh except for the pasta no thank you. 🙂↔️ stay away. Even my catered meeting space from breakfast to lunch was exceptional. Which is really hard to do for a hosted conference space. My hats off to the chef! Parking and accessibility is easy and the other best part is the Fitness Center and spa… Highly recommend you reserve some time for yourself to get some rest and relaxation whether that’s getting a massage or hitting the Pickleball court. I highly recommend.

The service was phenomenal. We ate several times at the Limewood, and had great service there as well. Florentino I remembered our names and made us feel at home. The views from the room were fantastic as well; we were able to see the golden. Gate bridge along with the bay.

This iconic hotel offers a unique experience, with its picturesque setting, sweeping views of the SF Bay Area, the flavor of local history, and luxurious amenities. When we checked in at the front desk, Gianfranco was gracious, professional, and helpful, and his warm smile was matched on the faces of other hotel staff during our thoroughly enjoyable stay. My parents had their wedding reception here almost 80 years ago, and there are still signs of the old charm throughout the place. An East Bay must see!

Effie assisted me with extreme kindness and good humor. So great to arrive after long flights hours to be received like this. Thank you.
