    The room and the hotel premises were clean. During my stay, the people at the front desk were very helpful, too. That being sad, I'm giving a low rating to the hotel because they put an additional charge on my credit card without providing a receipt and offering an explanation. I emailed the hotel for a receipt and a clarification, but my requests are being ignored. This behavior strikes me as highly unprofessional.

    Nice!

    I love staying at The Graduate, it’s the only hotel I stay in when I go visit my daughter, everything is close by. The hotel is pretty nice, I like hanging out at the dining lobby, the Henry’s hotel is also convenient and they gave the best brisket burger. The rooms are clean and staff are very nice.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The pub food was very good.....great salad and good burger. So convenient if going to a show at the Greek Theater. You can walk there and parking at the hotel is easy and convenient.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The place is clean, comfortable, visually appealing and walk-able to everyplace we needed to go. We highly recommend staying there while in Berkeley.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    It’s a great location and the room was quite comfortable. They also gave me a crib for my infant which was great. The restaurant is convenient, but the breakfast isn’t great. The staff at the reception can be a little unpleasant especially when you ask for help. And even though I was told my invoice will be sent by email to me I still haven’t received it and it has been over a week. I don’t think it’s a good use of anyone’s time to have to make a phone call to get this done. And I am still waiting to resolve an issue I had with one of my transactions at the restaurant. They are pretty slow at following up or doing anything that requires a little extra effort.

    Fan/AC squeaky. Nicely renovated bathroom. Appreciated the hot water pot in room.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    A quaint campus inn. Nice touches of architecture and history. Good restaurant.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    I stay here every time I come to Berkeley. Always clean, well maintained and the staff is friendly and helpful.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Very tight room, not much walking space; but helpful staff; gym is also super small

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Everything was substandard. The hotel is old and the rooms are small. There are minimal amenities (no cups in the bathroom, no shower caps, one body lotion; paper cups for instant coffee that were not replaced daily, housecleaning was inadequate, our room was not vaccumed, the bath mat was on the floor. When I asked for housekeeping to bring something, half an hour passed and I had to call again. The lobby has an odd smell. There was an empty water cooler in the seating area. The best thing was the $25 food and beverage credit at Henry's, food was decent.

    Amazing location with cute decor. Nice view from our room. Be sure to ask about a credit you get at the restaurant.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Overall ok but room prices were too high as well

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Exceptional

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Eric at the front desk was very helpful. He fulfilled our requests timely and professionally.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    The beds were very uncomfortable. The room safe didn't work properly - even after hotel staff "fixed" it. The restaurant was awful, with a very sparse menu and not even the items on the menu were all available.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    I love this hotel so close to all the restaurants and campus, the only negative the room we stayed at the shower doesn’t have a strong pressure and the water is either cold or hot. Otherwise the rooms are clean .

  • Engine customer May 2026

    The style , location, staff, and the bar drinks. The restaurant food was horrible.
