In town for a four day workshop, I was looking for something that would allow me to relax and clear my mind while getting work done. This was the perfect setting. The cottage is artistically decorated, and comfortable, and the hosts were accomodating. Plus, the walk into the yard each evening immediately clears the mind, with the sculpture gardens and... More

The cottage is private and quiet - I slept soundly and never heard any traffic or voices. Only two blocks from shops, farmer's market, and restaurants. The hosts provide every amenity imaginable - and the facility is spotless. Beautiful decor, surrounded by gardens and trees, and yet not far from the UC campus and city life. They provided home made... More

I have stayed at many bed and breakfast establishments over the years, but Garden Cottage stands out for its comfortable accommodations, unique setting, and the gracious hospitality of the owners. My recent return visit could not have been nicer. I looked forward to seeing the gardens, visting Mort's sculpture studio, and staying in the wonderful Japanese inspired cottage. This is... More

We recently stayed for a week at the Garden Cottage B&B in the actual cottage.....it was a peaceful haven and wonderful to return to after sightseeing in San Francisco all day! The hosts, Mort and Yuko, do everything possible to ensure your comfort without intruding in your space! The cottage is wonderfully clean and has a refrigerator handy to store... More

We love the Garden Cottage. We have stayed here 3 times, each time for 3-5 days. It is an oasis of calm in the midst of an active, urban setting. The cottage is well behind the main house surrounded by beautiful gardens and sculptures created by Mort, one of the owners. Mort and his wife Yuko are delightful people who... More

We loved the garden cottage at this B&B. Wonderful space, great bed, clean. Hosts were attentive but not intrusive. Homemade banana bread on arrival. They do not provide breakfast but do provide enough for you to make your own coffee or tea. It was just what we wanted. The garden area is lovely and nice to sit outside and enjoy... More

A few short blocks to North Berkeley's Gourmet Ghetto, we found a sanctuary in the Los Flores room at the Garden Cottages. Our hosts were gracious, friendly and helpful with local insights. Between the art throughout the rooms and outdoor gardens, one feels the Berkeley experience. When the day's events were done, returning to the quiet of the neighborhood was... More

I stayed for 3 nights and couldn't have been more pleased. The bed was incredibly comfortable and the cottage had everything I needed for a relaxing get away. Mort's sculpture garden and the artistic touches throughout made for a unique experience. I will definitely go back. More

I spent a little over a week at the Garden Cottage Bed and Breakfast while attending a conference at the University of California, Berkeley. The room itself is quite charming, as is the garden outside. Morton was extremely friendly and helpful, and we even spent some time discussing his artwork, which is displayed throughout the garden. The location is absolutely... More
