I recently stayed at the Claremont for one night. I booked the stay on Priceline and received a good price (I thought)-- approximately 40% off the rack rate for two (2) rooms. I attempted an early...

Nice facade, but the inside is not

Stayed 2 nights. Huge caterpillar had a nest on the ceiling of my room, pieces of this nest fell on my bed. Then, the caterpillar fell on my bed. Then, I destroyed the nest with my...

We chose the Claremont for our anniversary weekend since we couldn't go far from home due to the amount of time we had. I found the Claremont to but just beautiful and well kept. I'm surprised to see...

We were part of a group event at the hotel, though when we called to reserve a room the on-site reservations desk couldn't find a record and we needed a manager to find the booking. I wish he hadn't,...

Lovely as ever but be forewarned of hidden costs

Just got home from a wonderful stay at the Claremont. I pricelined the room and got a favorable room rate. I had stayed at the Claremont many years ago and had fond memories but some of the recent...

We just loved this property, but you have to revere it as an institution. It harkens back to a time when hotels had great facilities and large hallways -- I think you could have driven two Honda Fits...

Nice from the outside... Stuffy on the inside

I checked into the Claremont and the front desk man was not the friendliest encounter I have had. 3 hours after checking in, another staff member decided to open my hotel door without knocking &...

This review is based on our second visit, completed summer of 2008, and confirmed impressions gathered the first time. The Claremont is a hundred-year-old resort that is coasting on its reputation...

This was my second stay at the Claremont, although it had been eight years since I was first there. My confirmation was for a "rennovated bay-view king" room at $259.00 a night. When we arrived, I...

Worst Hotel Experience of my Life

Unfortunately, the "Claremont" name did NOT live up to its reputation. This is supposed to be a four diamond resort. It is well known for its classy reputation and legacy of famous guests. We booked a...
