10/10 Exceptional

A great place to stay close to the ocean.

A great place very near the beach. We had a Beach View room. Great restaurants close by (and in the hotel itself)
Philip, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The people who work there are really nice & accommodating, & the ocean view was wonderful. Since there is a resort fee, it would be nice if beach passes were included but still a great stay

Honeymoon Stay

We had an amazing time at the Berkeley. We were on our Honeymoon. The stuff couldn’t have been more professional and polite. Building was in great shape and its location was perfect for walking around Asbury Park. Will certainly stay there again!
Brian, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Fine Location .

We will probably stay here again due to it's excellent location. We would've given The Berkeley five stars if their gym had a chest press which worked, and/or a weight rack with barbells so we could've made - up our own custom workouts. Otherwise it's good that their gym is always open .

The stay was lovely Only thing is- my room was right next to a maintenance room In the afternoon there was sooo much noise- banging and drilling. That’s disturbed my stay a bit. Staff was courteous and the hotel was clean

Would definitely recommend

The hotel is just right for us. It's across from the beach, there is a pool, its comfortable and clean. I would fix up the fitness gym and maybe some better choices for breakfast. Overall, It is my great escape!

My new Happy Place 😎

The Berkeley Hotel is fantastic! The valet staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was excellent at the Berkeley Backyard Restaurant and the cafe. I definitely had a room with a view of the ocean! The historic aspects of the hotel are gorgeous! The pool area was very nice and relaxing! It was so convenient to the beach, boardwalk and places in Asbury Park. I am definitely coming back and stay for a longer period of time. It’s my new Happy Place! 😎

Family Getaway

We’ve been staying at the Berkeley for years and have loved seeing the changes made throughout the property! We loved the pool cabanas, found the service in that area exceptional and enjoyed the outdoor area near the koi pond. You can’t beat the proximity to the beach and we look forward to returning again!
Vanessa, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Not so bad...not so good

My family and I have been staying here for the past 5 years. This year there were many more dogs than past years. Lots of barking into the night. Mattresses not comfortable at all. Pool food is not quality for the amount of $ u spend. Hotel should make that area by the pond an area to buy pool food and sit down breakfast and lunch. Should have a good restsurant in the hotel.
Anthony, 4-night trip

Our “Go To” for the last 15 years

Berkeley Ocean Front hotel

The hotel was great and location was ideal. Service was wonderful. The mattresses could use replacement as one of the queens in our double queen room was very warn in - basically sat a few inches lower than the other mattress. Other than that, I would stay at the Berkeley again.
