Hotel Blocks and Travel

Travel Note

Travel Tips

We have secured four hotel block options for the dates of October 17-19. Below, you will find descriptions and booking links for each hotel. If you would like to book additional days beyond October 17-19 at one of the blocked hotels, we recommend that you book through the hotel block first to access the discounted rate, and then add additional days at market rate either over the phone or online. If you add additional days online, it's best to call the hotel to ensure you can stay in the same room for the duration of your stay. THIS IS IMPORTANT: If you plan on staying at an Airbnb, especially with a larger group, we recommend booking well in advance as Airbnbs in Berkeley are limited and October is a busy time of year. Have other questions about hotels or travel? Want to chat about neighborhoods to stay in, or our favorite topic - transportation options? We'd love to help!
