The bed was incredible and the room was so sound proof I could watch the construction across the street and never hear it. The staff were all top notch. I will stay here every time I go to Berkeley.

Great location in Berkeley with plenty nearby and an overall great staff and hotel.
My family and I always enjoy staying at Residence Inn—it’s our top choice whenever we visit Berkeley.
The hotel is only about a 5-minute walk from the campus and very close to BART, with plenty of shops and great restaurants nearby.
The room is very well organized, the bathroom is spotless, and the bed is perfectly comfortable—not too soft or too firm. Having a kitchen in the room is extremely convenient and makes our stay even better.
I especially want to mention the front desk service—Georgina is amazing! She is extremely attentive, friendly, and always provides professional and thoughtful service. Thank you for making our stay so pleasant!
Great location with clean, spacious rooms and the best front desk service. Highly recommend this place—we will definitely be back!
Thoroughly delightful place to stay! The room was super clean and quiet. The morning breakfast was varied and plentiful. Also, the location was great! Walking to the University of California campus at Berkeley was easy and safe.
