Oakland Marriott City Center, Oakland Convention Center and Courtyard Oakland Downtown Reviews

Clean but disappointed that you cannot access the lounge/M Club past 10pm to grab a water or soda. What's the point of staying at this location if they dont treat you like the other Marriotts treat their top tier.

Staff is excellent. They go above and beyond! Rooms beautiful, beds and pillows luscious! Oh the views amazing from the 19th and the 21st floor!!!!

Great breakfast, clean rooms... Loved the eggs Benedict

For the price, it's not bad. The walls are very thin but it is accessible and clean

Great lo atmosphere, location and rooms. Mediocre staff.

Location was great. Room was very nice minus the graffitti on the bathroom wall reading, "kill her." Someone must have missed that while cleaning.

Very nice very clean and fast and efficient service everybody is well-dressed everybody is willingly to help you carry your luggage from your car

Good hotel & staff, standard Marriott. Good location in Oakland as well as a short BART ride or drive into San Francisco. Gym is a but small but typical hotel gym.

Best known jewel In Oakland California. Many of us have represented this venue for decades and patronize it's glamor with fond memories. It is centrally located to all ones needs music, shows, Lake Merritt, Host of Restaurants, China Town....it's has always been a diverse community with profound history.

Cool Cece

Nice refurbished updated room. Executive lounge snacks had a little to be desired, but overall fine hotel experience. (Be prepared to pay $40 to park your car.) Great location if attending conference or have business in downtown oakland.

Good location to explore Old Oakland. Rooms are updated and nice. Odd configuration in some rooms.

Excellent service. Staff was on top of things..helpful and courteous. .very professional

No free wifi in rooms. Rest hotel is clean and is close to bart station

Showed up at 5:30pm and was told my room was s not ready. Had to wait 45 minutes until the cleaning service was completed.

The 2nd floor lounge is the perfect setting for an informal business meeting.

Great room, continental breakfast would have been nice.

Great place like stepping into somewhere else an escape from the crazy city

Great hotel! The bed was so awesome & comfy! Loved my stay there.

It's in the heart of down town where you can get to everything. Minutes from SF if you want to hang out there. I love the lounge and the renovation of the rooms hotel, very chic. They need to update a few of there bath tubs but overall its awesome. I'd suggest signing up for the rewards program, its impeccable . The staff there are AWESOME!!

A great venue for professional event very nice bar area extremely accomodating staff

Great and central space for a conference with plenty of dining options around. 1 block away from 12th Street BART station

Nice,..clean rooms. That hotel is too damn big...lol. no pool.

Great place to have a Convention. Limited and expensive parking

I worked here briefly as a temporary in HR. They offered me a job. I took another offer. Good people.They'll take care of you.

3 stars cuz for being Marriott I expected more. No water in my room, not enough coffee amenities. I spoke with Tony downstairs greeter. He been there 30yrs! He was friendly. Awesome spirits great to talk with! Because of Tony, they get 3 stars!

I have been going here for years eating a garlic french fries and they are so good very nice they spoil you well you know the basketball players are in and out

The redesigned rooms were very well designed, especially the bathrooms. It felt modern, but very comfortable.

A nice hotel, but expensive. There is only one restaurant, it has nothing for kids. Parking is $40 a day, even for guests, and they don't have any rooms with a door separating the sleeping area, so difficult with small ones. But the staff is great, and if you go for the food, it tastes fantastic.

Tidy room and good service. Don't understand why a nice hotel still won't offer free WiFi. Not acceptable these days.

Great stay in downtown Oakland.

Have been here many many times. Each visit is unique.

Have watched Occupy Oakland from the check in desk and then on CNN when I got up to my room.

Always an adventure.

Staff is friendly. Lots of shops and restaurants in walking distance.

Great area. The hotel is one of the nicest places in Oakland.

Very friendly staff at all levels. Clean throughout and good food. Bartender Kiwan was fun

Waiter was playful and fun. Ribeye was cooked perfectly. Quiet, comfortable, and just far enough removed.

It's the only big hotel in Oakland. So there's not a lot of other choices.

Nice place to start the night before heading into downtown.

This hotel is really expensive. They charge you for everything. 6 dollars for a bottle of water. 45 dollars to park per day. And 10 dollars per day for basic internet or 15 for high-speed. It feels like a place frozen in time. The decor of the rooms feels dated. Mind you I do love that they have us chargers all over the room and the HDMI input jack is accessible and usable. But for what you pay for a basic room there are other hotels in the area that could offer the same experience for far less. Marriott should not put there name on this building or service.

Only place to find American breakfast. Great service and food but $$$

This place is improved a lot. But the pricing also has gone up with those improvements.

I loved the restaurant. And the room was great. Wish I could've stayed longer.

Short stay because we had to get up early for the first annual Oakland Gran Fondo. Room was clean, beds were super comfy. The view of downtown Oakland and the Tribune building at night was phenomenal. Really close to Jack London and bart. Great hotel, great location.

Worst experience EVER!!! My friend and I visited 5 cities in 4 days and had a great time, until we checked in here on our last night. We reserved the room 3 days in advanced and requested 2 doubles. When we arrived (tired and ready to relax), we were told there were only kings available, doubles had been sold out a week prior. Confused as to why this had not been communicated to us. One of us had to sleep on a rollaway bed at this 200.00+/a night hotel! I WILL NEVER STAY AT ANOTHER MARRIOTT HOTEL. Oh, but the guy at the front desk offered to give us each a coupon for a free drink at the bar. I guess that was supposed to make up for it.

This is a nice hotel that is not quite affordable. But you get what you pay for.... The downside is the street parking in this neighborhood sucks. You never can sit down and relax for very long because you will absolutly lose your vehicle if you are not constantly checking the limited time parking meters here.

it was right next to chinatown and lots of good shopping around!

Room was clean, beds comfortable and a great location in the city

Great hotel. Very nice front desk personnel, front doormen, views of the city, overall atmosphere. Definitely worth the stay. The rooms are big, clean, and quiet! Everything is pretty much on Broadway, so to Uber would be a very low price. Definitely worth the stay and would visit here again.

Super comfortable, clean and stylish rooms. Stayed here with my son for Genesis, a huge gaming tournament/convention. Really impressed at how the staff kindly and courteously handled 3,000 gamer kids in their hotel for three full days. Hope to be back again next year!

My favorite place to stay when I'm in the bay area!

Parking is super expensive. Cheaper parking right across the street. Street parking is cheaper, but has 2hrs limit

Nice space, wifi was stable (it was provided by cloudflair)

My go to spot whenever I stay in Oakland. Clean rooms/facility and wonderful service.

Perfect location to walk to most business type appointments. Great staff and an excellent hotel.

Interesting blend of old and new architecture. Scary at night. Lots of homeless.

Location was excellent. Our room was noisy from the elevator, but served it's purpose. Great view of the bay. All the staff I interacted with were pleasant.

Fast check-in, friendly staff, clean rooms and bathrooms. The lobby area is a bit worn out and doesn't look great, but the rooms are much better and clearly renovated more recently. The club lounge is one of the best and more spacious that I've ever seen, though alcohol is not included and paid separately. If you're on a high floor the views are pretty nice, too.
