The Spotlight on Sonesta Emeryville - San Francisco Bay Bridge

Modern Comfort Just Across the Bay from San Francisco

A sleek, contemporary stay on the east end of the Bay Bridge, Sonesta Emeryville - San Francisco Bay Bridge offers concert-goers a peaceful retreat just 15 minutes from the heart of downtown San Francisco. With soundproof rooms, easy freeway access, and views of the city skyline, this hotel blends convenience with comfort for music lovers on the move.

Why Concert-goers love it

Being just a quick drive from major venues in both San Francisco and Oakland, the location is a major win. Whether you're catching a show at the Fox Theater or heading into SF for a stadium gig, getting there and back is easy. The soundproof rooms are a standout for guests returning from late-night events, and the heated indoor pool and hot tub are perfect for winding down. With a check-in time of 4:00 PM and check-out at 11:00 AM, there’s enough flexibility to suit most travel schedules.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking for a convenient Bay Area base
- Solo travelers chasing a dream concert night
- Couples planning a weekend escape with music and skyline views
- Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery space away from city noise
- Budget-conscious music fans who still want quality amenities

Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant serves up classic American cuisine, perfect for a pre-show bite or a laid-back meal after. While there’s no 24/7 room service, there are plenty of walkable dining spots nearby in Emeryville. Breakfast is available for those slow mornings after a late night out.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn't host live music, you're a quick rideshare away from lively bars and music clubs in Oakland and San Francisco. Emeryville also has a few chill spots for a nightcap, and the hotel's serene atmosphere makes it great for winding down quietly.

What People Say

Guests praise the hotel’s cleanliness and quiet rooms, even with its proximity to the freeway. Many love the easy access to both Oakland and San Francisco venues, and the friendly, helpful staff gets frequent shout-outs. The indoor pool and hot tub are also a favorite for relaxing after a high-energy show.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests have mentioned that the Wi-Fi can be spotty at times, and a few noted that parking fees are on the higher side. Still, most agree the overall value and location make up for it.

The Bottom Line

Whether you're catching a show across the Bay or exploring East Bay venues, Sonesta Emeryville - San Francisco Bay Bridge offers a comfortable, quiet launchpad for your concert-filled adventures.

Good

Liked: The price is OK. The breakfast is average. Free drinking water should be provided in the room. It is strange that breakfast is only provided for two people when there are 4 people in the room.

Denied because I didn't have...

Liked: i booked the room and the staff at the front desk refused to let me actually go to my room because i didn't have a physical credit card with me. i have one on my phone that i have used at other hotel properties but the staff was unwilling to work with me. They then refused to help me get a refund so I was left without a hotel room at 11pm at night and no refund! I'm very upset.
Disliked: The front desk staff didn't allow me an option to like anything because they denied me access to my room even though I had paid for it and had a working credit card that I access through my phone. Also the front desk staff was in their pajamas!!! I'm sorry but if I pay the amount i did for a room i expect the staff to be dressed in something other than their PJ's.
