Great Location. There are opportunities to be great!!
Pros:

Great location. Close to everything. Easy access to the freeway especially we have to get to Oakland. Hotel needs better upkeep on some fixtures in the room. Otherwise the hotel is clean.
Need better selection for breakfast items. They did not look appetizing at all.

Super Service with a GREAT Location
Pros:

If you need a place to stay in the Bay Area, I highly recommend the Hyatt House in Emeryville, CA. It is close to mass transit (one bus from the hotel to get to a BART Station). It is very close to the Bay Bridge if you need to drive into the city or take rideshare. I recommend getting a bay view room with a "BALCONY", YES! a balcony. They have sliding doors that allows you to enjoy the breezes when the weather is right. The staff has always been welcoming, and I have spent a substantial amount of time at the hotel going back almost 10 years now.

Surprised by Hyatt Emeryville
Pros:

Originally, we'd planned to stay in Walnut Creek, but. a last minute change brought us to the Hyatt House in Emeryville. We were caught by surprise in the excellent service, great accommodations, and all around best hospitality than we've had in years. The front desk, the facilities support staff, and even the breakfast staff were friendly, intentional, and so hospitable. Really good weekend stay. They made our trip perfect as far as accommodations go.

Would stay here again
Pros:

Requested adjoining rooms when I booked a month in advance, Was told I would have to call the morning of my arrival and request. When I called at 0800 on the day of arrival, I was told that they still could not guarantee adjoining rooms or early check in. I arrived around 2:20 pm and was advised that adjoining rooms had been secured and they even allowed me to check in a little early to one of the rooms. Rooms were very clean. Only issue is the "fully stocked kitchen" in the suite isn't really a kitchen. Small 2 - burner stove and small microwave/convection oven. Can only get one pan at a time on the stove. No table to sit at, only a bar with 2 chairs. So we ate out rather than cooking as we originally planned. Breakfast was well prepared and the area was kept well stocked and clean.

Excellent Staff and Rooms
Pros:

Once again, a perfect stay- we come here frequently (about 10 days / yr) to see our kids at school nearby, and we’re always impressed by the kind and considerate staff, the cleanliness and spaciousness of the rooms, and the all around “well-run” feeling of the place. The breakfast is very good too. I highly recommend Hyatt house Emeryville - it feels like a second home.

A big thank you to the great staff- Jose, Princess, Angel, Sergio, Joe at breakfast and several other staff who always make our stay welcoming and comfortable.

Great option for a 3-star hotel! I recommend
Pros:

Our stay at this hotel was pleasant overall. We stayed for 10 days in a suite that came with a full kitchen, which was great for days we didn't feel like going out. Room is spacious, clean, a TV in living area and a 2nd in the bedroom. Staff was consistently friendly and helpful. Rate was reasonable with (OK) breakfast included. One downside: $25 daily parking fee, bit high. Everything else met our exceeded our expectations

You'll have to go down the street for a cocktail.
Pros:

This hotel is very close to the Amtrak station, which is why we booked it. The room was fine, staff was very helpful but the bar was NEVER open.

Really good for a hotel that is having updates done.
Pros:

The room was clean and the staff was very nice. They are remodeling so one of the front doors was not working so you needed someone to hold the handicapped door open if you were disabled.

Good for one night
Pros:

I booked this place by mistake as they do have long term rentals but my stay was quiet and uneventful. Room and bathroom were clean, but rug was dated and low quality and windows were very dirty. It felt a little jinky. The morning staff was super friendly and professional and the breakfast was very good! Even though I would not go back, I would say it ended on a great note!

Beware of the trains!
Pros:

The hotel is in ok condition: older but decently maintained. The front desk staff is not very helpful; most just clock their time. Sergio was very helpful, an exception.
Parking is $25 per day, despite the hotel being adjacent to a large, free public parking lot.
The Emeryville Amtrak station is conveniently located right next to the hotel, making it very accessible if you are arriving by train.
There is train traffic (both Amtrak and freight) at all hours of the day; avoid rooms with odd-numbered addresses if you are not accustomed to sleeping with train noise. Shockingly, front desk staff do not mention the presence of train noise; buyer beware.

Great view of the train station
Pros:

My daughter is obsessed with trains. We stayed here because it overlooks the Emeryville Amtrak station and she could watch trains for hours both from the balcony of our room and with a short walk to the station. It was a great birthday gift for her.
