I did book this hotel for the whole family (2 + a 22 months old baby), the primary reasons for choosing were the trip advisor reviews, proximity of the BART for my wife & baby to reach SF easily, and proximity of Emeryville by car where I had my business obligations. We stayed there for two weeks and the overall... More

What a nice place to stay! I was sad checking out. It's a great hotel, but I was surprised that such a nice hotel didn't have a door man. This was disappointed to me as I walked up to the door carrying my three bags and had to open the door on my own. This hotel has been rated the... More

Right next to the downtown Berkeley BART stop and right off of Stattuck so you can walk anywhere. Rooms are nice. Good bookstores either way on Shattuck and nice choices of places to eat I would highly recommend. More

My husband and I booked this hotel due to it's proximity to BART and University Avenue. We weren't disappointed. After parking at a public lot across the street, we were greeted by a giant peace symbol in the marble foyer....very appropriate for Berkeley and it brought a smile to our faces. Check-in was efficient and personable. Our room on the... More

The Shattuck is in a perfect location, just steps from the downtown BART, the campus, the new Magnes Library. With very pleasant help and good breakfasts you could hardly want more. Our only complaint was that our bathroom was tiny, with towel racks too high to be reached and no full-length mirror anywhere in the room. However, for convenience, cleanliness,... More

Sort of quirky decor but great place to stay. Comfortable rooms, great beds and bedding, clean, and perfect location - what else can you ask for in a hotel? We were in a room which was the farthest from the elevator but it was quiet (except for some work being done on neighboring restaurant). Breakfast was good. We'll come back. More

Yuk. Not a great stop for business. The complimentary internet gave me 12 hours for free. Then it quit working at 8.20 in the morning and wouldn't let me sign back on. The phone was broken. Probably just the battery was dead, but I still couldn't talk with anyone about the fact that the internet didn't work. The desk chair... More

I stayed at Hotel Shattuck one night only for business. The front desk person was excellent and the process was very smooth for check-in. I received an excellent room with great bed and a very nice bathroom and unique ammenities. Our function at the hotel was well handled and food was excellent. Also like to call out that the bellman... More

The rooms are comfortable and clean, but nothing special. No on-site parking or valet, which was very inconvenient. The night we were there, the restaurant had to stop taking customers because the kitchen could not keep with up with demand, although there were many open tables. The location is good for walking around Berkeley. More
