We stayed at this hotel in September 2011 during our honeymoon before flying to Hawaii. We stayed 4 nights to visit the San Francisco area. This is a nice Hilton, comfy beds and great views of the Bay. We booked a "bay view room" and it was very quiet. They charge $10 for self-parking, but compared to hotels in San... More

I stay frequently in this hotel for work. It is conveniently located to the East Bay, SF, Oakland, Berkeley, etc. all of which I have to travel to for work. They keep the facility clean and well kept. Haven't had any room that needs repair, which I appreciate. The gym is small but has a nice selection of equipment. The... More

This hotel was a good value for the money. The rooms were clean and well kept. The staff was professional and friendly but not beyond what I expect. I didn't ask much of them. The issues that I had with this hotel were 1) parking was $10 per day - not much but the hotels across the road don't charge... More

When traveling on business, (this was a 4 day stay for me) it is the overall attention to detail that defines if I will return for another visit. The Hilton Garden Inn, Emeryville, CA met and the staff exceeded my expectations. Whatever management is doing, keep doing it... First and foremost, the rooms are exceptionally clean; looks like new -... More

Convenient for those wanting to visit Berkeley, Oakland or Emeryville and next to the San Francisco Bay Bridge. This is a nice Hilton, helpful staff, comfy beds and great views of the Bay; but even the view of the hills (and traffic on the freeway) is interesting for “Cityphiles”. They charge $10 for self-parking, but compared to the name hotels... More

This hotel does not have the best curb appeal but its interior and friendly staff totally make up for the plain exterior. The front desk staff team was always kind and helpful, providing tips for sightseeing in SF and the surrounding Oakland areas. The guest rooms and the common areas are consistently kept clean. The breakfast at the hotel also... More

We booked this room through Priceline one day before our travel date on New Years Eve. I must say that I've passed this hotel numerous times and never really thought twice about it.

If you don't need a view, get the discounted room parking lot/freeway side. Although you might hear a faint freeway sound, the AC/heater unit when on will take care of that. Very nice comfortable bed w/modern bath. Nice variety with their breakfast buffet, (i.e. fruits, waffles, bacon, etc.), along with copies of the USA Today on the floor. More

We booked this hotel for an overnight stay when attending a mid-week concert at the Oakland Coliseum (December 2011). There was a mix-up in the reservation (used the main HIlton on-line system to request two double beds and when we arrived there were no double bed rooms). We were offered a king room with a pull out - no thank... More

This was a great stay. They made an error and overbooked, so they gave us 2 adjoining rooms at no additional cost! It was nice. We had a great view of the Bay and the security was great in the parking lot as well as very clean. It is just before the Oakland Bridge in a cool location. More
