The Claremont is a classic. The management has kept it up. The lobby took my wife and I to another era and we felt part of history. Our room was basic, but well done and clean. The Club and Spa were very popular and busy with local residents. This could be a problem on a Weekend. We did not use... More

My husband and I stayed one night in a corner bay view room on a weeknight. The views of the city are spectacular. The room was beautiful and immaculate. The restaurant, Paragon was great. Great view of San Francisco from the outside deck. More

The hotel has rooms of all sizes (my room particularly small) but if you want to use the pool, you pay $25, if you want to park, you pay $25, if you want anything out-of-the-ordinary, it'll cost you. It's unfortunate, because the hotel is beautiful but it only feels nice if you have $.. otherwise you'll feel out of place... More

I spent the night at the Claremont with my daughter the day before she received her Ph.D. from Berkeley.

I took my family & sons here for the weekend to celebrate Mother's Day. The resort beautiful, well maintained, and the staff is great. Our only complaint about the hotel is regarding the noise outside of our room during the evening hours. Janitorial staff were emptying the trash and made a lot of noise. More

This young man was incredible polite curteous and friendly. It was my first Spa treatment and I was living it up. Even though I did not refrain about talking... More

I noticed on Claremont’s website that they had a special offer on accommodations “Spring Fling”. I decided to include this as my gift to my niece. I arrived early at the reservation desk to pay...

We live in the Bay Area but took advantage of a "Living Social" deal. When we checked into the hotel, we were upgraded to a beautiful suite overlooking Berkeley and San Francisco. Everyone at this elegant grand hotel made us feel special, starting and ending with Shabnam at the front desk. We had dinner at the Paragon and breakfast at... More

grew up in the area- always wanted to stay there so when the opportunity arose, sure enough, we did- parts were great, parts were less so but overall, a great old beauty of a hotel. Don't stay above the 3rd floor unless you check out the room first- small with small windows however after talking to the front desk, they... More
