DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Berkeley Marina

The Romantic Urban Escape on the Bay

Perfectly positioned on the picturesque Berkeley Marina, DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Berkeley Marina is designed for couples seeking both relaxation and city excitement.

This modern, resort-style property wraps you in bay breeze tranquility and exceptional service from the moment you arrive with a warm chocolate chip cookie welcome, an inviting prelude for your romantic stay.

Location & Atmosphere: Serene Waterfront Living

Set directly along the marina with sweeping views of the San Francisco Bay, the hotel offers a peaceful retreat just minutes from the vibrant energy of downtown Berkeley and San Francisco.

Its prime waterfront location means you’re never far from spectacular sunsets, scenic strolls on the Bay Trail, or the excitement of nearby restaurants and attractions.

Easy access to the BART station puts all of the Bay Area at your fingertips while keeping your stay blissfully serene.

Rooms & Suites: Bay Views and Private Spaces

Tailored for romance, the guest rooms and suites are spacious and thoughtfully designed. Many offer private patios or balconies overlooking the marina, perfect for morning coffees or evening toasts for two. Sink into Sweet Dreams® beds, indulge in plush towels and luxury bath products, and unwind with modern touches like a 49-inch HDTV and streaming entertainment.

For couples desiring extra space, bi-level suites boast dramatic city skyline views from two floors, sitting areas, and in-room amenities like a mini-fridge and microwave. Accessibility is prioritized, ensuring a comfortable experience for every guest.

Dining: Bayfront Flavors for Two

The signature Berkeley Boathouse restaurant serves up contemporary, locally-inspired cuisine alongside beautiful marina views.

Whether you’re starting the day with breakfast by the water or enjoying a candlelit dinner at sunset, the flavors and setting promise a memorable dining experience.

For a laid-back option, Made Market offers hand-crafted sandwiches, Starbucks coffee, and quick bites for intimate picnics or snacks on the go. Room service is also available, so you can dine in privacy, any time.

Wellness, Recreation, and Activities

Unwind together in the heated indoor lap pool or relax in the sauna after a workout in the fully equipped fitness center. E-bike rentals provide a unique way for couples to explore the Bay Trail or the nearby Fourth Street shopping district, turning a simple ride into a shared adventure along the waterfront.

Romantic Amenities that Stand Out

• Private balconies or patios with marina or courtyard views
• Bayfront dining with sunset vistas
• Indoor pool, spa, and sauna for relaxation
• Romantic strolls and e-bike rides along the waterfront
• Pet-friendly accommodations so your companion can join the experience

Service & Hospitality

The hotel is recognized for its warm and attentive staff, with guests frequently praising the genuine hospitality throughout the property. From the front desk to housekeeping, every detail is attended to, making you feel valued and welcomed during your romantic escape.

Proximity to Attractions

You’re just a short trip from the Golden Gate Fields, Berkeley Farmers Market, and the city’s “Gourmet Ghetto” dining scene. Whether you want a cozy night in or to explore the nearby urban adventures, everything is within easy reach.
