Note: 'm rating the Double Tree as an event venue vs. for lodging.

I've always passed the Double Tree when I go to the Berkeley Marina and dismissed it as some outdated hotel. I attended a wine tasting event here and was pleasantly surprised at the handsome wood furnishings inside as well as the beautiful view of the Marina and the Bay from the pool, patio and restaurant.

The wine event sprawled across 3 rooms and I can see why small to mid-sized organizations would want to host their retreat or seminars here. If I didn't live so close by, I might treat myself to a stay here.
