    I stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn Walnut Creek from May 2-May 4. The stay started off stressful because our first room (402) had a deadbolt that would not lock properly, which honestly made me feel unsafe. When I called the front desk, Chanel sounded overwhelmed and busy, and while the interaction initially felt a little dismissive, I could also tell she was trying to handle a lot of guests at once by herself. She eventually moved us to another room, which I appreciated. The second room (469) unfortunately had cleanliness issues, including hair on the sheets and a dirty sink/shower area. I brought it up the next morning, and Debora completely turned the experience around. She was kind, professional, apologetic, and handled everything quickly. She had the room cleaned properly, changed the sheets, and even gave us complimentary breakfast. Debora's customer service honestly made the stay much more comfortable. The hotel itself is nice and fairly new, and breakfast was decent. I would stay again.

    We stay in Walnut Creek a lot and usually just default to Marriott brands on points but as my last few visits weren't impressive I decided to try this hotel and it did not disappoint. It's pretty new and the rooms are spotless with that new carpet smell! Beautiful bit lobby that's bright and airy, lovely staff and easy check in with plenty of parking outside! Room was delightful with two comfy beds, a lovely bathroom with great shower and amenities and a mini walk in closet with mirror, drawers and shelves. Also had a fridge, good coffee machine and microwave as well as coffee in the lobby and breakfast. Room had a lovely view of Mount Diablo and though it was close to the BART line , it was super quiet! Loved everything about this property and will be back here soon for college move in!

    We've been impressed with our stay at the brand new Hilton Garden Inn in Walnut Creek. The location is right next to the freeway and in close proximity to the BART station and downtown Walnut Creek. We chose it because it's close to John Muir Health. The hotel has all of the amenities I've needed for a stay of several nights. The restaurant in the hotel serves breakfast and dinner. Both have been good. I get a dining credit to apply to food purchases as a Hilton Honors Gold member. There is a bar that is open until 10 pm. There is a 24 hour fitness center and a 24 hour laundry room. There is a shop in the lobby for purchasing snacks, medications, laundry detergent, or anything you might need for your stay. A heated pool and hot tub are located outside in the front of the hotel. The room is spacious and comfortable with a lot of storage. Included in the room are shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion. The beds are comfortable and the towels are soft. A coffee maker with coffee pods, creamers, sugar, and to-go cups are located in the room. The room also has a small refrigerator and a microwave. The hotel is clean and beautiful. The staff are friendly and helpful. I am glad this new hotel opened and I was able to stay here. I would recommend it for families or for those who are traveling either with a group or alone.

    I visited the dining and bar area at the Hilton Walnut Creek and had a very disappointing experience. I sat for about 30 minutes and no staff member acknowledged me or offered service. It felt like I was completely ignored. Good customer service is very important in hospitality, and unfortunately this visit did not meet that expectation. Because of this experience, I am giving a 1-star rating.

    Omelette is my favorite

    See all

The birria quesadilla in the restaurant is so good, I had it two times. The reason for 4/5 stars is because of the smoke detector that went off around midnight, and only in my room. An engineer came right up to pull it off the ceiling and make the noise stop. The front desk brought me two glasses of wine and that was appreciated. Again, service is great! I will stay here again when I'm in the area and hope to see you there!

All of those things were a headache and during the first time I stayed for a week, I had to ask housekeeping for stuff back to be replaced and my card at checkout was sorted. I had hopes for this location that I decided to come back as the service at the hotel, they tried to make it right. However, my second stay for another week took a downturn for the worst. Don't get me wrong, the hotel is busy as I've seen on both my stays, several business companies had their events at this location. While that's a good thing, it certainly leaves room for error on other things. I came back and during my second stay, the front desk was terrible. This is not an exaggeration. Ever had someone look up and down at you with a side eye? The moment I walked up to the desk and said hi, I'm here to checkin, the only response I got in a tone you'd never expect was "identification card" and proceeded to look up and down at me again. For context, I was fully clothed. Poloshirt with jacket, non fitted full pants with shoes and 2 bags. The entire interaction was just horrible. If it wasn't for work, I would've just cancelled my reservation right there and then. The interaction was that bad. Housekeeping is daily unless you have your dnd sign. Microwave is at a common room for the entire floor. I had the same experience the second time around. I reuse my towels and except for the towel you use for the floor outside the shower, everything else is hanged. When I had housekeeping, my towels are taken away without replacement. It was the same for the face towels too. The safe in the room was not working. I voiced out my concern to another front desk agent regarding my checkin process and got connected with Lisa, whom she introduced herself as director of operations. When I told her about my checkin, she was apologetic in some sense and explained that it was not in their policy for someone to act that way and even told me I will be given pts as compensation. At checkout, I asked the front desk agent to check the card charge and at least they got that right. If after checking/asking about this 3 times during my stay and an error still occurred, then I have no words for it anymore. When I asked about the compensated points, he said since it was that much was going to be given it would take 5 business days after the my checkout date. I waited more than 2 weeks and the only pts in my account was just my regular hotel stay pts. I will not be coming back to a location that has a rude front desk agent and conversations that don't push through. Save your money and go somewhere else. I drove around the area and there are multiple options that one can go.

I only ever heard security knock once, tell them to keep it down, then have the music crank back up less than a minute later. Whomever the night manager was is utterly lousy at their job. Edit to add: The pullout couch in my room was flat and lumpy and wildly unconfortable, sleeping on the couch cushions wasn't much better. Bed was occupied by sister and niece while I took the pullout bed. If I could give this place zero or negative stars I would. Absolutely horrendous service.

I reserved and prepaid $977.28 through the AAA Travel website for a Premium Two King Beds room. My confirmation clearly states that I purchased a Premium Two King Beds room. Before traveling, I also called the hotel directly to verify my reservation, and I was assured everything was confirmed. Upon arrival, I was informed that my room type was no longer available. Instead of the two king beds I had reserved and paid for, I was given a room with only one king bed and a rollaway bed. I was traveling with my elderly mother and my adult daughter. Because the rollaway bed was not suitable for my daughter, my mother had to sleep on the rollaway bed for our three-night stay. This was not the room I purchased, and it significantly affected our comfort during our trip. I immediately asked whether another room was available or whether the hotel could provide a discount or other accommodation. I was told the hotel was sold out and that nothing could be done. The staff was not empathetic and repeatedly stated that because I had booked through a third party, there was nothing they could do. After returning home, I contacted the hotel again. During that conversation, I was told that I had been "bumped" because I booked through a third party and that had I booked directly through the hotel, they would have honored my reservation. I find this unacceptable. My reservation was confirmed, paid in full, and verified directly with the hotel before my arrival. Guests should not receive inferior accommodations simply because they booked through an authorized travel partner such as AAA. I respectfully request: * A partial refund for failing to provide the room category I paid for. * A written explanation as to why my confirmed reservation was not honored. * An explanation of the hotel's policy regarding confirmed reservations made through AAA and other authorized travel agencies. I have already opened a case with AAA Travel and hope this matter can be resolved promptly and fairly.

The room was huge! It had a cute little kitchen setup with a dining table, a comfy corner couch in the living area, and two separate bedrooms, which made it feel more like an apartment than a hotel. One room had a queen bed, a good-sized closet with wired shelving, and a super spacious bathroom with the sink area outside the bathroom, always a win when you're trying to get ready without fighting over space. The second bedroom had a king bed, its own walk-in shower, and the same setup with the sink outside the bathroom and open to the room, which made it super easy to multitask (aka watch TV while doing my makeup). The space overall was clean, functional, and comfortable. But my biggest complaint? That awful showerhead. It was grimy, leaking, and had the weakest water pressure. Definitely a letdown in an otherwise great room.... especially when a good shower is one of my top hotel priorities. The bathroom had the potential to be a vibe, but the shower situation totally killed it.

The staff were always very friendly and accommodating. There were a couple of times we had a lot of clarifying questions and they never made us feel like we were annoying them. Even when we checked out, I double checked the pet fee after having paid and left already. They had accidentally overcharged me, as I had stayed for less time than the price I had paid. I called them up to inquire about it, and they were able to resolve the issue and refunded me the difference. Overall, the hotel was pretty clean for accommodating pets. I think this hotel seems to have a lot of smells from food that people bring it or of cleaning products. Even in our room, it seemed the room held on to smells for a long time, and despite having the air circulating or the window open, it was hard to get rid of the scents. It also seems other reviewers have mentioned some bedbug or other creepy crawly concerns, but we did not see any for the whole month we were there. We had a studio sort of room, so it was a large space that included the bed, a small living room with the couch, dining table, and kitchenette. The kitchenette includes a microwave that also can be an oven, an electric stove, and a nice sized refrigerator. They include the basic utensils for eating and cooking, bowls, plates, cups, mugs, pans, pots, colander. There is a coffee maker, as well. They provide you with dishwashing soap but it is not of great quality as it doesn't bubble. There is no sponge they provide to wash your dishes. They do have some dishwasher detergent for the dishwasher they also have in the unit. It seems they do not do room service unless you specifically request/schedule for it. It's probably because they have pets and they need you to have your pet out of the room when they service it. Parking is free, and they provide you with a parking pass to leave on your dashboard. They have a 24/7 gym with a few key equipment, including 2 ellipticals, 1 stationary bike, 1 non-functioning Peloton bike, 3 treadmills, bench for weights, back extension. They have wipes to clean the equipment, a water jug, and towels for your convenience. There is complimentary breakfast. It starts at 6:30 am on the weekdays, 7 am on the weekends. They have someone making custom ready-to-order omelets. They have the standard coffee and tea (coffee runs out pretty quickly in the morning since this is a busy hotel for working guets), scrambled eggs (one plain, one with veggies), sausage or bacon, potatoes, fruit, cereal, oatmeal, breads. There is a bar with a happy hour as well, but they do not have a sit-down restaurant here. Fortunately, there are many restaurants close by in Downtown Pleasant Hill. Other amenities include meeting rooms, a pool, basketball court. Overall, it was a pretty solid experience at Hyatt House!

For the price being $125 a night is not even close to being worth a cheap stay! We were so upset with the room we were given, that they let us move to another room on the opposite side of the hotel and if anything it was worse. Upon entry of the new room there were dead cockroaches on the exterior of the room and inside live ones. I hope you read this before you even think to book a stay here. After seeing the condition of the second room offered, I demanded my refund back and that nite we left aimlessly driving around the East bay at 11pm looking for a sanitary place to lay my child's head down. It was a traumatizing encounter! HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND this place. I reached out to Contra Costa county health department to report what we encountered and they said this was not their only complaint on this hotel , it was actually there 2nd complaint that week!! I hope they get this place shut down and fix these issues. Walnut Creek is a great beautiful city it is does not need a place like this in business in their city limits!!!!!
