“nothing worked”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012
2
people found this review helpful

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 was broken and wobbly.

At 7AM, they started tarring the roof of the adjoining building. Basically like having a garbage truck parked outside my window.

If this is the best hotel Berkeley has to offer, Berkeley needs some more hotels.

Room Tip: Best way to choose a good room is to choose a different hotel.

“quality hotel in university town”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012

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 were extremely helpfu.

drawback - parking is across the street and very expensive.

Location is excellent..

Room Tip: ask for inside room - king bed

“Just okay...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012

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.

Room Tip: Try to get as high a level room as possible because the street noise is loud.

“Wonderful cozy modern boutique hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 January 2012

My 18yr. old daughter and I stayed here for two nights. Loved the funky, modern yet classical decor (very European), very pleasant, accommodating staff too. Our room was wonderful: cozy but modernized. Nice large flat screen TV, comfortable beds, 100% cotton linens, windows that opened, personalized air/heat settings, nice amenities, clean design. Loved the fact that the air conditioning/electricity turned off when we left the room and when you returned to room you slipped your key card in a slot and everything came back on again at your settings. Convenient location to the BART which goes right to the SFO airport in 50 minutes, 4 blocks from Cal. Would happily stay there again. Price via Hotels.com was reasonable for such an upscale hotel experience.
