Doubletree Hotel Meeting Center Berkeley Marina

I liked that it was not too far from the Berkeley university and parking was free. I also liked that breakfast was complimentary and the restaurant was pleasantly decorated and I had a nice view of the marina. I disliked that internet access was not complimentary and the location was not within convenient walking distance of off property restaurants.

It was a convenient location. I loved that it was on the bay. It had a wonderful park and activities around the hotel. It was pet friendly.

I felt that I had selected the best hotel in my budget for its location.

We were able to see Alcatraz, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the marina just a few steps away from the resort. There are numerous walking trails nearby. I don't care for only having complimentary wireless internet in the lobby areas for the price you pay for the room. I have had free wireless in my room at less expensive hotels.

We did not eat at the restaurant or use the exercise/pool areas due to lack of time to do so. My overall opinion was that I was glad I had selected the Doubletree over the other nearby hotels due to its location. Parking was free and valet parking was not required.

The hotel is in a remote location, but it offers van service to nearby locations. The room was comfortable, nicely appointed, the bathroom was clean and nicely designed, with good Neutrogena products offered. The location was quiet. The restaurant offered a pleasant breakfast buffet and one could enjoy views of the city and the marina. The property was very pleasant, comfortable and the staff was quite helpful and made some kind gestures during my stay. Hilton is doing acceptable work with this property despite its location.

This hotel was close to my office and it provided all of the amenities I needed at a good price.
