What a beautiful area this hotel is situated in. The ferry terminal is literally a 3 minute walk around the corner so that you can get over to San Francisco & Pier 39. The staff were lovely. The breakfast is continental style, You feel in your requirements for breakfast next day, tick the time you want it, hang the menu on the door before 11pm each night and it is then delivered to your room the next morning. There is a little table in your room where you can eat it or out on the balcony looking over the water. It was fabulous. A hairdrier was in the bathroom so no need to take your own. shampoo/conditioner/shower gel also provided . On Floor 2 at the end of the hallway was decking with tables and chairs & 2 sunbeds that looked across the sea/Bay. Free wine in the lobby in the afternoon between 5 & 7pm & cookies on reception in the evening. It was the first time we had been to San Francisco/Tiburon & if we had realised we would have hired a car. We were only here 2 days so it wasnt to much of an issue as we used the ferry to get in to San Fran

    This is a beautiful old hotel, designed by Julia Morgan. The courtyard is a great place to read a book. The breakfast was excellent, especially the two types of quiche. We didn't have enough time to explore everything we wanted to at the hotel, including the indoor pool and the small Julia Morgan museum. We will stay there again on our next trip to Berkeley.

    It's a stunning place to stay at. Everything is so beautiful. The staff is very nice and accommodating. Breakfast is vegan friendly-ish. There is fruit, milk alternatives for coffee and vegan oatmeal. The room came with a clothing iron (with steam - very convenient), ironing board, fan and heater. There's extra pillows and a blanket in the closet. I'll have to hunt down the lotion they are stocking the rooms with, because it is so creamy and smells lovely.
