Top West Oakland Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"Staff excellent always speedy and helpful. No complaints at all"

The Pickwick Hotel

8/10 Good

"It’s an older building. I had an issue with the toilet that was repaired in a timely manner, staff was very friendly. The bed was too soft for me but I have this issue with most hotels. One block away from major transit lines which is super convenient. Overall value for price was reasonable and stay was decent."

Parc 55 San Francisco - A Hilton Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was nice. We found makeup on our pillow cases and the staff made it right, right away. The biggest bummer was the fact that the pool was across the street. I think Parc55 could do a better job of educating the guests where it is and how to find it. We loved closing out our days at the bar, but wished that breakfast had more options than the buffet."
