Located on the hills on the eastern end of the UC Berkely campus, the Berkeley Lab House is, UNFORTUNATELY, restricted by the Dept. of Energy to UCB students,faculty,alumni or visiting researchers (you are, afterall, part of several active,working energy research laboratories). We were greeted by turkeys (about 15 walked right past our car) upon our arrival! During our evening walk,... More

Located *inside* the boundary of the Lab, and up a steep hill, you pass through a guarded security gate to reach the Guest House, which is a small modern three-story hotel on the side of a hill overlooking the bay. The stunning views, quiet setting, and clean air, above the traffic and noise of the city, outweigh the inconvenience of... More

First impressions are lasting impressions. This was my first business trip to the City of Berkeley and specifically, UC Berkeley. My stay at the Berkeley Lab Guest House was everything (and more) it was billed to be. Very nice, clean, well-appointed room; free coffee, tea, wi-fi, cable TV. However, I can't say enough about how absolutely comfortable the bed was... More

Previously, when visiting my daughter who is a student at UC Berkeley, we stayed at the big hotels in the Marina and Emeryville area. But when I heard about the Berkeley Lab Guest House, it sounded rather unique, so I thought I would give it a try. We were very pleased with our experience (this was about a year ago).... More

If you are visiting Berkeley Labs this is by far the most convenient place to stay. The rooms are very simple, but quite aqequate, nice and clean. My neighbors were very quiet. (This may vary depending on what time and the age of cyclotron reserachers who are returning from a shift)
