Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

10/10 Excellent
"This is a hidden gem! We were somewhat leery booking this property because the price was $150 for the night. What we experienced was a great boutique style hotel. The room was smaller but had a large walk in closet, which you don’t see in hotels. This allowed us to put luggage in there and made the room feel bigger. Highly recommend staying here!"

Scoping out the transportation options in Kensington is a smart way to keep your trip affordable. The nearest airport is Concord, CA (CCR-Buchanan Field), situated 13.3 mi (21.3 km) away. However, if that doesn't suit your budget, you can arrange flights in and out of Oakland, CA (OAK-Oakland Intl.), which is 14.2 mi (22.8 km) away.
