“Amazing B&B in Berkley!”

Berkeley Brick Path Bed & Breakfast

Save Review
5 of 5 stars
San Diego, California
6 Nov 2007

My fiance and I stayed at the Brick Path B&B while in Berkley on a business trip in September and cannot wait to return! Since we booked our stay at the last minute, we spent the first night in the East-Meets-West Cottage and the next two nights in the Fireplace Room (which was a real treat, since we were able to enjoy both!)

The East-Meets-West Cottage is a private cottage separate from the main house. It is wonderfully spacious with high ceilings, lots of windows, and a private sitting area in front just off the main garden. It was the perfect retreat after a busy day of meetings and travel. If you prefer a more private setting, the East-Meets-West Cottage is a terrific choice.

The Fireplace Room was truly our favorite. The Fireplace Room is in the main house and is adorned with a large stone fireplace, cozy sitting area, and an antique piano. The room is so cozy, warm, and inviting, it was next to impossible to leave in the mornings! Whether you stay at the Brick Path for business, pleasure, or even a romantic getaway, the Fireplace Room is the perfect place to begin and end every day.

A stay at the Brick Path B&B would not be complete without mention of Wendy's amazing breakfasts. Although our schedule was different every morning (one morning, my fiance left at 5:30AM), Wendy always made sure that we started our day with a good breakfast including fresh fruits, scones and muffins, fresh cereals, yogurt, eggs, and juice (you'll be hard pressed to finish it all!). Wendy is a truly accomodating host and goes out of her way to make sure that her guests begin and end their days with loving attention.

Finally, the Brick Path is located just 1 block from Solano Avenue, a popular Berkley destination filled with a wide variety of neighborhood restaurants, bakeries, shops, markets, and a movie theatre. Everything is in easy walking distance and the neighborhood setting creates a wonderfully relaxing environment. Also, be sure not to miss Vanessa's Bistro, an unbelievable restaurant with phenomenal food and impeccable, friendly service (we went back twice!).

Thank you, Wendy, for a wonderful say in Berkeley and we can't wait to see you on our next trip to the Bay Area!

We stayed two nights at the Brick Path this past weekend and are so glad that we did! Wendy does an excellent job of making you feel comfortable and at home. The house is in a beautiful neighborhood and in walking distance to Solano Ave. shops and restaurants. She did a terrific job of steering us towards Fonda's Tapas restaurant for dinner after the Cal-UT game and it was terrific! The room which had a piano in it was very comfortable and the bed ultra comfy! Would definitely stay there again.

“Wonderful Berkeley B&B”

Berkeley Brick Path Bed & Breakfast

1/1 found this review helpful

Such a wonderful five-day experience all the way around. The accomodations were spacious, clean and quiet. Breakfast was great every morning. Wendy was terriffic and always willing to assist with things to do and great places to eat, which are in abundance in this area. Lots of shops within walking distance, too. I would highly recommend staying here, and we fully intend to return the next time we are in the area.

“The Best B&B You Will Ever Find”

Berkeley Brick Path Bed & Breakfast

3 Jul 2007

It's so beautiful here you won't want to open the gate and go out into the city!
This is a lovely bed and breakfast in a beautiful house on a quiet street in Berkeley, a short walk from shopping on fabulous Solano Avenue. Close to public transportation, so it's an easy ride into San Francisco.
I stayed here for a week at the end of June/beginning of July 2007. The owner couldn't have been more gracious, helpful and accommodating. The Fireplace Room was lovely and comfortable, and the bed truly luxurious. Beautifully maintained garden and house, great service; you will never regret coming here. The breakfasts are delicious and very nourishing, with lots of choices. I will always remember the wonderful, truly magical and peaceful garden.
This is your oasis in the middle of whatever hectic journey you're on. And the rates are very affordable for business or pleasure travelers.
I plan to go back again and again.

What a great, hidden bed and breakfast in Berkeley, CA. We went to visit our daughter, and were completely delighted with the room. We were in the Fireplace Room; it was completely private, cozy, WONDERFUL bed, and even a working piano and cello! The location is perfect, a very short walk to every type of store and restaurant you might need. You can have breakfast delivered in your room, and eat with the fireplace going, and the morning sun streaming in. There is coffee and tea in the room, along with a small refrigerator. Near enough to campus, but very quiet (a small amount of street noise, no problem). Wendy, the proprietor, seems to have thought of everything, and if there is anything you want, she will help you get it!

Overall, this felt like a real "find".
