DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Berkeley Marina
Hotel was decent. Rooms were clean. The only thing we weren’t happy with was there was no room service from the hotel restaurant. We had to go downstairs to order and then wait to bring up to the room.

Fairmont San Francisco
Enjoyed our stay, the room, and the holiday decorations. The welcome from the staff was what one would hope for, but seldom get. Truly nice and caring people from valet, luggage handlers, bartender, and waiter. These people made our stay wonderful and memorable.
