Northwood - Tara Hotels, Orinda

"The room was very clean, easy check in and really no complaints, me and my girlfriend were very comfortable. Great location, very close to everything."

"Great location older hotel but well kept but the bathroom was beyond small!!!"

"Wonderful staff Great breakfast Loved location and walk ability"

"Large, clean, quiet room on 8th floor. Comfortable bed. Spacious lobby area with lots of seating and a coffee machine with plenty of options. Outstanding staff, helped us with everything from holding the elevator door open for me when I was holding two cups of coffee to printing out documents sent to us at the last minute. There were restaurants, bars, a couple of small groceries and cafes on our block or within a 5 minute walk. The area is not as frightening as many reviews have made it out to be. For sure some sketchy people and sketchy smells but nothing out of the ordinary in a big city and not much different from what you’ll encounter in the much more upscale Union Square. "

"Nice old hotel. Great location. "

"The hotel was totally fine. But beware of the resort fee which wasn't made clear at booking- they add $25 per day at check out. Was using for business and didn't use any of the amenities."

"Clean and quiet. Great park next door with very nice walking paths along the bay."

"hot tub, pool sauna and marina"

"Very friendly staff and would definitely recommend "
