Spent Saturday night at the Berkeley with my wife and another couple. Rooms were clean and spectacular. The front desk was very accommodating and held our bags until the rooms were ready so we could take in the sites early. All staff was attentive. The rooms are large and we had an amazing ocean view. Great to wake up and have your coffee watching the surfers. Great town with restaurants just a short walk away never mind the great boardwalk with its restaurants. This has been our yearly tradition for a few years, glad to be back and looking forward to next year.

My husband and I just came back from 3 nights at the Berkeley. I have been here a few times over the past 10 years. We are big travelers and have been to 30+ countries together and I travel for work so I do have certain expectations. First, you can’t beat the location on ocean block! We walked 1 minute to the asbury roastery in the convention center every am for iced coffee and enjoyed either on boardwalk bench or in the hotel garden area. Second, staff were so lovely and friendly. Special shout out to the ladies at the front walk, they were so friendly and welcoming! 

The pool is a nice bonus. They have lots of chairs and the staff are very attentive and provide drink service anywhere. Had fun music playing as well as a pool bar. The garden area is very nice with water features and chairs. We enjoyed coffee back there in the am and ice cream from the boardwalk at night. One evening they had live music back there. The room was a very nice size with a side view of the ocean. Very nicely decorated.

If you want a pool and to be across the street from the Ocean, probably the best most reasonable option in Asbury Park. Close to everything on foot, tons of food and drink and music options, wonder bar and stone pony. Beds were good, decent sized room. Pool area was nice and the wait / bar staff very friendly.

We booked a standard room and when we arrived they upgraded us to an ocean view. The room was clean and very comfortable. The location at the beach and the boardwalk was perfect.

I arrived to the Berkeley in the evening for a late check-in. Nichel and Ashanti made me feel very welcomed and taken care of. They were very informative about hotel amenities and suggested great restaurants around the area. Their kindness set the tone for a great stay at the Berkeley.

We couldn’t wait to start our vacation this year! We were lucky to have the front desk check us in early so we can that we could settle in to our beautiful big room with beautiful ocean views! We’re having the best time we’ve had in all the years we’ve been coming here! It gets better every year!

Asbury is the perfect weekend getaway, and this hotel is the best spot to stay! Came for a long weekend and had an amazing experience. I’ve stayed here several times but this was by far the best one.

Here is the deal - if you want a convenient and decent place to stay right near from Asbury Park Boardwalk - this place checks all the boxes. We found the hotel staff to be super helpful with reservations and room logistics. We rented two cabanas by the pool one day, and the waiter was great. The food was terrific, and there was a fun vibe with a good DJ.. The hotel has lots of outdoor seating areas, which is nice. It also has a breakfast cafe, several convenient bars, and ping-pong in the lobby, which was fun for the teens.
