The room was very nice - very clean. The folks at the front desk was very nice, most helpful. We felt like it was a safe part of town. Alameda is beautiful. In walking distance to many places to eat, drug stores, etc. I would stay there again. More

Although this hotel is across the Bay from San Francisco, there is quick access to the Bay Bridge. Rooms are pretty standard yet ours also featured a small sitting room, sink, microwave and coffee-maker. The one downside for our trip is that we left behind a laundry bag of clothes which staff said they had fedex'd to our home but... More

I frequently have business in Oakland and usually stay in City Center, but on a recent trip the only hotel I could find at the last minute was $300/night. A friend told me of the Hawthorn, and I had a nice stay there. It is within a 10 minute or so drive to Oakland, and the trip requires a car... More

We stayed 8 nights (and got a good rate by doing so). The first night our room was very near the elevator and vending so it was a bit noisy. (Typical: some jerk talking loudly on a cell phone while he paced up and down the hall.) We moved to the ground floor, parking lot side for the next 7... More

2 nights- clean, quiet rBoom (room was off the street side) Breakfast average - would love to see more fresh, vegetarian options. Daytime staff at desk very helpful and pleasant. Without a car getting around Alameda is more difficult- would be helpful to provide more information about mass transit available on the island. More

The first Sunday of every month you can enjoy antiques on the bay and know it makes for a nice getaway. The hotel is perfect. Friendly staff, clean, huge rooms and great amenities. Not to mention if you take a 5 minute drive to Park St you can indulge in one of their many great restaurants. I will make it... More

Hotel rooms were roomy. Good place for a business trip. I did not check out the pool area, but did go to the work out room. The machines were a bit older but had one of everything, treadmill, bike, etc. Continental breakfast was good, they served starbucks coffee. I would stay again. More

We have been regular guests of this hotel for about five years, staying several times per year for a week or more, and as long as one month. We travel extensively for both business and pleasure in the U.S. and Europe, and we consider this property one of the very best in this country. It is extremely well run in... More
