I arrived to check-in approx 5pm after the stated 4pm check-in time. I was told that housekeeping was behind and the room wouldn't be ready for a couple of hours and the front desk suggested that I go out and have dinner. I came back at approc 7.30pm and was told the room wouldn't be ready until sometime after 10pm. I asked them for a more specific time and they didn't know and one staff said it might be closer to midnight and I could wait in the lobby area. They told me I could check into another hotel and they would walk me there. I said this wasn't acceptable. At approx 11.30pm a large group of airline staff checked in and were given rooms. I had to stand at the desk and until they finally found an available room. The room itself was a bit worn (carpet stains and scuffed walls). The location is good, but wouldn't recommend a stay there.

Great stay at hotel near Jack London Square, Oakland, CA. Spacious and comfortable room.
3.0 / 10.0
Check in was awful! Arrived at 10 pm, and our room was not ready! We had to wait for a half hour for them to clean the room and then the front desk personnel made us feel like we were lucky because the maids put our room before a few others. What if we e had arrived for 4 pm check-in!!??
Other than that, it was a decent stay, and we were grateful for the short walking distance to the Oakland-Alameda-SF ferry.
4.0 / 10.0
The room was very clean albeit a bit noisy. Kind of weird having only one small window that looked directly at the balcony of the room next door so we couldn't even open the drapes. It was fine for one night though.

We love this place, our favorite place to stay in Oakland. Waterfront in Jack London Square. Expensive to park though
4.0 / 10.0
Overall good experience. I was in town to watch the Mariners play their final series in Oakland.
The hotel was a great location. 10 minute drive from stadium, 15 minute drive to airport and the ferry into San Francisco was next door to the hotel.
Pros: location, pool was nice, several restaurants within walking distance, great views of the marina.
Cons: $40 a night for parking, no in room coffee and not a lot of options close by.
Overall it was great and would not hesitate to recommend to others.

The hotel is conveniently located surrounded with great restaurants, not much shops around though. Was warned how some Oakland areas would be dangerous, but the hotel's location made us feel safe. Walking distance from Amtrak station & we took it to get to Oakland Stadium to see our team play. Staff were mediocre but won't really complain about them. Overall we truly love the ambiance & location is fantastic!

Terribly loud- I don’t know if it was the person above us or that we were near a gym but it was awful. It took me almost 2 hours to fall asleep
10.0 / 10.0
The staff is awesome and the workout room and equipment well maintained. Earplugs are provided for the train noise. There is no breakfast but there is coffee in the room. I did not have a car but parking seemed to be potentially challenging.

The Hyatt is pinching their pennies with this property. The property needs a lot of love! The staff was attentive and invested in providing good service. But, the physical plant left a lot to be desired.

convient to an event I attended & next door to Scott's Seafood where we had dinner. Being onthe water is a bonus - very soul soothing.

Another great experience. I have visited this hotel several times and it has become my favorite in Oakland. The staff is very attentive.
4.0 / 10.0
I was worried because I’ve heard how bad Oakland has gotten . We booked the room with balcony overlooking the marina and I would go many times over. There was easy access to restaurants, ice cream and a cool little place called the Fat Lady. My favorite part was sitting on the balcony. We walked to get ice cream after 10 pm and we felt safe in the area and staff were very nice . The hotel is dated but nice, and honestly , the view made you forget about it. I would 100% recommend!

2.0 / 10.0
The check in process was fraught with issues and multiple attempts to get my credit card in their system. The hotel advertises a coffee cafe, but it no longer exists. No notice, and it felt deceptive as it shows it is available on their website, internal literature and on the TV info. Pool condition is poor. Pool felt slimy. The valet service is poorly understaffed. I waited over a half and hour to repark my car after my first night. The hotel staff tried, but overall a very disappointing experience. I will not return to this hotel.

Good location for ferries to san Fran but surrounding area / neighbourhoods rundown and a little unsafe at night
5.0 / 10.0
My favorite hotel to stay at when I’m in the bay area. Right by the water with beautiful views. Right across from Yoshis live music club. Parking is a bit expensive so cheaper to Uber. Front desk service is always friendly. Rooms are maintained well. Could use a bit of a remodel, but still very comfortable. I hope that the Jack London Square area rebounds after Covid really diminished the area.

The waterfront! The boats! The fog!

The hotel was very clean. No vending machines so that was a bummer. I like to have bottle water close by. The hotel charges $4 for a 16oz that’s in your room but it’s not cold. It may be for the little sad coffee that is “complimentary” but not really if you are being charged for the water. The location is great! So many restaurants at the Jack London square and most importantly, a coffee shop that opens at 6am!
