In town for a Raiders game and I was extremely satisfied! Shuttles were provided to every location I needed; from the airport, to and from the Oakland-Alameda Coliseum and back to the airport. The room was comfy and clean and I enjoyed a tasty and affordable meal at the hotel's sport's bar and grill. A great experience for a quick... more

This place is new and the rooms are nice but that's expected from a recently built hotel. The big problems were with the service and professional attitude of the staff. The staff didn't know the concept of hospitality, I spend about 150 nights a year on the road for business and stay in various hotels along the way. I know... more

My husband and I were vacationing in Santa Rosa and decided to stay over in Oakland the evening before our flight back to Texas. The hotel is very clean and updated. Our bed was extremely comfortable and the curtains and linens were color friendly. The air conditoner was also quiet which I greatly appreciated. One Con is that there was... more

I stayed here for a weekend during a transition to another hotel. This really is a nice hotel. I got a 2king bed suite for $100 a night, and this room was so large I could have had 3 or 4 more ppl in the room and we still would have not been crowded. The beds were great and the... more

Beautiful hotel with a great staff and a wonderful location. But, the walls are so thin you can hear the conversation next door without even trying. I used my earplugs which I always carry so I could get some sleep. Too bad they didn't insulate the walls with some sort of sound proofing material. more

Got into town past midnight, and had a little bit of a problem finding the hotel. Found out when I was checking in that they had run out of rooms (no joke), and I was instantly being upgraded to a suite for a five night stay. The GOOD- This hotel is brand new (bartender told me a year old), free... more

Summary: My wife and I stayed at this hotel during our road trip through California. I researched hotels in downtown SF but couldn't find anything reasonable (quality for value) so we decided to take a bet and stay in Oakland. This hotel had good reviews and I decided to go with it. It paid off very nicely. The hotel is... more

I agree with the other reviews regarding the quality of the rooms: they are new and gorgeous. However, the front desk staff, particularly in the evening, is indifferent, and incompetent/poorly trained. I stay at hotels 200 nights a year, and am Gold, Platinum, or Diamond in all of the hotel programs. I do not expect perfection from Holiday Inn front... more

Having just returned from a stay at this property, everything should still be fresh in my mind….I booked a room here for a 2 night stay while in town attending-working some Oakland A’s games at the nearby Coliseum. And yes it is very nearby, most likely 5 minutes or less from the parking lot to the parking lot at the... more
