Breakfast was good. I paid extra at my booking for breakfast. I was given coupons to cover breakfast, but only after I asked for them to honor my prepayment. I took my coupons to get breakfast & the waiter told me the coupons only covered the meal, not the tip. Feeling pressured, I told him to bill a $5.50 tip to my room. He proceeded to bill our breakfasts & tip to my room. Which I had to straighten out at my check out.
Hilton Garden Inn San Francisco/Oakland Bay Bridge is located just off I-80 and I-580.

I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights and found it very pleasant: the rooms are large and comfortable. You can hear the traffic outside quite a bit, but you get used to it in the background. It takes about 1 hour to get to SF city by public transport: there's a free shuttle bus to Bart station and the 57 bus that goes past traders Joe. I chose this hotel because it's within walking distance of the Emeryville station, so it's about a 20-minute walk.

The staff at the reception was very helpful and patient (we had to change rooms 3 times). Our room was finally clean and big enough and the location was perfect at the harbor

The location was ok, the room was clean and of decent size. Parking was next to the hotel building and was easily accessible.

I had to stay with two dogs and the check in was very simple, they made me feel welcome with them, the pet fee wasn't too steep, the parking was simple and the front desk was very accommodating when it came to loading in and out.

Housekeeping, they never cleaned our room, when I called housekeeping we were told that we had to call 24hrs ahead of time. When we arrived in our room during our 1st day, there was a dirty crumpled pillow case, the conditioner bottle is empty in the bathroom, so I assume they never cleaned nor checked on the room.

Good location for tourists.
Good location for tourists. Easy access by car to everything and great for shopping (lots of people visited the mall around the block). Easy access to highways, although a bit tricky to find the first time.
Busy hotel which accommodated my requests, and very friendly front staff. Has a pool but it is not extra clean, a risk in times of COVID.

Emeryville is about 40 minutes by public transport from San Francisco. There is a free bus service going round taking you to the MacArthur BART (local rapid transport) station. It is perfect if you want to stay out of town and/or come on the Californian Zephyr or any other Amtrak train.
There is a Trader Joe's about 200 metres away. And a couple of small malls nearby not to mention an IKEA in walking distance.
I paid extra for a sea view and that was really worth it. There are buildings in the way so not interrupted vies but still stunning.

Very close to UC Berkeley.
Very close to UC Berkeley. Book here if your purpose is going to visit your kids in UC Berkeley because even the cheapest flea-infested inns, hotels and motels in Oakland will cost you an arm and a leg! Hotels in Emeryville are better compared to ones closer to UC Berekeley.
This was a one-night stay while some construction was happening at our house. The hotel was surprisingly quiet, despite the location near the train tracks and the location was great for our needs. I also appreciated that the parking was included with the room rate. The rooms were clean and spacious, and the included breakfast was very helpful for getting to school on time! The staff was friendly as well. I would definitely recommend this hotel for a comfortable, convenient stay.
Had chosen a different hotel after staying at the Hilton Garden Inn nearby before the pandemic. This hotel is located slightly more centralized than the aforementioned Hilton Garden Inn - being within walking distance from a Trader Joe's as well as other food options. The rooms were really spacious and modern, the bed comfortable enough to conk out out quickly after getting in, and a late checkout time (12 PM) was welcomed. Staff was friendly and answered all questions.

close to Amtrak station and public transportation. clean and spacious. we had the king suite and it was comfortable. Nice big breakfast included. The gentleman working the buffet for breakfast found out I couldn’t have milk products and checked the food for me after I said I assumed the eggs weren’t safe, then sought me out in the dining room to update. that meant a lot to me, as it’s very hard to find dairy free food at hotel breakfasts.
Bed was comfortable. Pillows fluffy. Check in and out process was very easy. Price was same as quoted by Booking.com. Pool wasn’t open. Hotel provided extra coffee pods and creamer for the room when I asked. Also fairly easy walk from Amtrak station.
The room was clean and the hotel itself was well-maintained. The staff was easy to communicate with prior to my stay. The front desk staff was mostly pleasant. When something was wrong with my room, it was fixed promptly.
We used this hotel as a base for our son's UC Berkeley graduation. Although a bit far from campus, it was very convenient with a rental car. The room was clean and comfortable and breakfast was good! Highly recommended.
Nice hotel in a great location. Staff is great and attentive. Rooms are clean and very comfortable. There is a nice restaurant bar, and coffee/breakfast area in lobby. Also a decent gym is available.
The hotel was just nice.
Breakfast above the (american) standard.
The room was quite large and clean.
It would have been a 9-10 if we would have got the promised "front-room".
