Recent Claremont Club Review: "This is a beautiful old hotel and the spa is top-rate. The tennis courts are lovely and the workout areas are fabulous! I have three comments though on situations that occurred during my 7 night stay. They were reroofing the entire hotel roof. This is especially annoying while paying good money for a "relaxing" massage. The spa manager reiumbursed me  1/2 the charge because of it and the concerige sent me a plate of chocholate covered strawberries - handled perfectly but I never booked a spa treatment until after 5 pm when the workers left for the day. Second, I booked a room in the "spa" wing thinking that this would be a quieter area, however there was a parking lot right outside my windows. Motorcycles, cars and of course, delivery trucks(even the roofing workers) parked, idled their engines and turned around right outside my 4 windows since I had a corner room. Lastly, the name of the hotel is "resort and spa" and has boasts three pools" However, they don't tell you that they have kiddie camp there doing the day and one of the pools is a kiddie pool. Again, not too relaxing for a single person looking for a quiet, relaxing and pampering experience. But If you ask me if I would stay there again, the answer is YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

A short guide to Berkeley

The city’s radical spirit has endured at least on Telegraph Avenue by the UC Berkeley campus. Upscale shops have moved into the once industrial Fourth Street district. Foodies flock to the Gourmet Ghetto, which began in the 1970s with Chez Panisse. Berkeley Hills’ residents enjoy bay views and access to Tilden Park’s 2,000 acres. Visitors to the marina can stroll on the pier and explore the parks.

Recreation

Access to the Claremont's fitness center and activities is included in the resort surcharge. Ten tennis courts are available for play, with equipment rental for a nominal fee. A patio accommodates two outdoor lap pools, one 25 yards and the other 25 meters; a spa tub, and chaise lounges. A mind/body center offers a Pilates studio and full schedule of aerobic, yoga, and body sculpting classes. A spin studio, cardio room with bikes, treadmills, Stairmasters, and elliptical trainers are adjacent to the weight training rooms.

Four golf courses, both 18-hole and 9-hole—with driving ranges—are located within a 20-minute drive of the hotel. Hiking and biking trails are located just off the hotel property.
