Because of some repair work happening at our house, my wife and stayed at this Marriot for 8 nights this past August. We live in Oakland and we chose this Marriot because of the price, because we could earn Marriot Bonvoy points/nights towards status, and it gave us a reason to explore the Pleasanton/Dublin/Livermore region of the East Bay while still being close to Oakland. First thing I'll mention is this hotel seems to be very dog friendly, which not all hotels are. We brought our dog and it seemed like several guests brought their dog. The room was pretty spacious and met our needs. We got housekeeping to clean our room twice and they did a the staff did a thorough job. On the second night when it got colder in the evening, we noticed that the heat wasn't working, when we told the front desk the next morning they had someone work on it that day, when we got back to the room later that day we could feel and hear the air moving. I didn't try the pool (which looked nice) but I tried the gym was seemed pretty well stocked with working machines and weights. My wife has Bonvoy status which gave us access to the M Lounge which was really great because they was a pretty decent breakfast station including hot items, as well as hot food items from 5-7pm and dessert (usually some sort of cake) from 7-9pm. They had a fridge with cold drinks and a specialty coffee maker (could make coffee, lattes, and hot chocolates/mochas) which could be accessed throughout the day and night. I did want to shout-out the Lone Oak (hotel bar and restaurant). I went one evening and had some good whiskey based cocktails including a New York Sour, not everywhere makes it well. For a bunch of the days my wife and I worked in the hotel and I wanted to say the wifi worked pretty well (hotel wifi isn't always good). There's a big parking lot, and the hotel in a good location, including easy freeway (580) access, and being close to a lot of different restaurants and shopping areas, like Stoneridge Mall which is within walking distance (Pleasanton isn't huge). Plus we drive a Tesla and there are numerous Tesla superchargers and level 2 chargers within less than a mile away. Staying for 8 nights we got a good sense in how the place runs, and again, overall good customer service. I'm a local so probably wouldn't stay there often, but I'd recommend it. read more

I was very disappointed with our stay. We have stayed at Marriott hotels on numerous occasions; sadly this was not a good experience. The room was small but clean; the AC was loud, no microwave, and the staff was not friendly. We did not feel welcomed. On the plus side, I appreciated the online check-in/ checkout feature, the breakfast was convenient, parking was free and the location is convenient, the mall is close by. read more

It was a one night stay after a concert in the Bay. The wife and I settled in to have some relaxing moments before the long drive back to the central Valley and home. We were happy with the room and comfort of the bed space. I always wonder where the Marriott gets its pillow top mattresses because they are so on time! Nevertheless- the morning breakfast menu for room service was lacking majorly. The app was not allowing increases of plus 1 for anything under the add button I.e., eggs. meat etc. I called down to room service to address this, and the rep sounded shocked by the claim. Fortunately- I had my wife try it as well on her phone with the same inadequate results. Normally - I don't leave a lackluster review at a Marriott. Most that I have been to have been above standard and accommodating. I'd recommend revisiting this app, and validate any bugs. read more

As far as Marriott's go this is mediocre. No welcome at the front desk, no acknowledgement of status or even a friendly interaction. There were definitely a few homeless people living there, and hanging out in the club food area. I did pay extra for that benefit, and the food was gross. Don't bother and grab food nearby. read more

Stayed here for work again as part of a group. Two things will drive this review: housekeeping and the internet service provider. I stayed four nights this time around. The first night, housekeeping did an amazing job serving the room. It was exactly what I expected. In fact, because I rarely see good servicing since COVID, I was going to leave a tip. Then the rest of the days came. After that first night, they simply changed the towels and straightened the bed. Nothing more and they didn't empty the trash. The third and fourth days, it was clear the housekeeping team phoned it in. The last night the bed wasn't really straightened. As for the internet. The first three days it worked great. The last night, it kept prompting me to log in and the pop-ups were endless. In the end, it never worked. When I called the front desk to ask them to reverse the charges, the desk clerked laughed at me that I couldn't get the internet working. I'm fairly tech savvy, so I know it wasn't me. See the picture below...and the endless popups. In the end, the Pleasanton Marriott is an OK property, just don't expect a clean room if you're staying more than one night. read more

I stay in Marriott hotels at least 50% of the year. It takes a LOT to make me write a poor review. I'm a Marriott titanium member, I was Ambassador until I didn't meet the $23k spent last year. This may be hands down one of the worst stays I've experienced in a long time. Upon check in, I was required to sign a good neighbor agreement. I thought this was quite odd as this hotel is in a very quiet area with really nothing within walking distance. Who is coming here to cause some chaos? I started reading the terrible reviews and thought no way could they be right. Oh, they were spot on. The rooms are tiny. The beds are pretty much micro beds. I normally get a king bed, but my son and husband are traveling with me, so I got what they claimed to be 2 queen beds. They are not queen, possiblity doubles? Where do I start. The AC.... It sounds like a jet plane. It is so loud, I have no idea how I am going to sleep through the noise. I guess the positive is that it is drowning out the noise from next door. The noise is two people talking which is at a normal tone. The issue is that the adjoining door has a gap so big that I can put my toes in their room. The restaurant/bar? We waited about 8 minutes before we even saw the bartender. In that time we were able to observe dirty glasses and garbage around the working area of the bar. When he is arrive, he was very unfriendly. We ordered a round of drinks, we would have ordered more, but as when we first arrived, he continued to disappear. Now I call this the bar/restaurant, but honestly it's super strange because it is pretty much part of the check in area and so close to the entry doors that everytime they opened, I got hit with a freezing wind. There is more, but I need to see if I can get Uber to deliver earplugs so that I have a chance of sleeping through the extremely loud AC/heat. read more

We travel a lot and have our list of favorites. The Marriott in Pleasanton just made our list. I'll get the one big negative thing out of the way to get to the good stuff. The reason we booked the hotel was because y'all had a Jacuzzi! We have horrible cold weather in Sacramento and my wife was really looking forward to that. Problem: It was NOT hot (luke warm at best) in the evening AND when we checked it again the next morning... Ok, now some reasons that we will come and give it another try. First of all breakfast at hotels is usually not so good. The Marriott did a great job for a few bucks extra. The food was good and the service was even better, very friendly and they went the extra mile. The bed was really comfortable and rooms have more than adequate space. I like feather pillows and that's what they felt like. Shower design and options were also so nice. When we entered the room, it was already warm and the lights were on for us. Get that jacuzzi hot and you get 5 Stars read more

Came to check in on Friday night and the young lady working the front desk was super nice and helpful. And very accommodating. Soooo appreciate her help! read more

We come here every year for a soccer tournament during Halloween time. They are kind enough to let us trick or treat during the stay our soccer team purchases rooms for the weekend. Complimentary breakfast is a plus and they have a bar inside, what more could you ask for? Swimming pool has a nice area as well as a hot tub. Last year I had the pleasure of running into a comedian on our stay. Customer service is great as well. Will be back next year for sure. Forgot to add they also have a decent sized gym with dumbbells and cardio machines. read more

We came in late on Friday's night, Leslie was at the front desk and checked us in with ease. She gave us a few bottles of water as complementary items. I asked about the Gift Card but it requires manager's approval. Not her's fault. She tried to help as much as she could. Overall, hotel is nice with recent update. Pool was ok but hot tub was great. Bathroom was renovated so it's nice and clean. Marriot should allow any of their employees to approve the gift card. Leslie and the manager deserve a rate with their exceptional customer service. Will stay there again in the future. read more

Nothing notable to complain about. I could of course nit pick any hotel - but this was decent, so full marks given where credit is due. The room was clean, ac worked, shower was hot. All the usual hotel room items. Food downstairs was decent. Place seems to be well run. No saggy beds, plenty of water, and can stream Netflix on the TV. Dunno why this place has a 3.2 star rating. Seems fine to me. Amenities are up to par, water is freely available around the hotel, pool is clean. Note for management: if you would like me to offer very specific feedback upon each visit such as: room water pressure, room water temperature, air conditioner condition, vent cleanliness, room cleanliness, staff service, food quality - contact me to give me a free night booking each month and I will provide a full review upon my next visit or any subsequent visits each month until the end of Feb 2025. Happy to provide my Marriott # as well. read more

The professionalism of the staff alone turns this hotel that would otherwise be rated a 4 star hotel into a 5 star. Upon check-in, it was determined that due to military and group bookings, the room I reserved was not available. While under any other circumstances, this could probably be considered disastrous, the staff did their due diligence to accommodate our needs. A huge shout out to Nicole and Byron, as they quickly remedied the situation to make our stay comfortable! The rooms were very clean, quiet, and comfortable. The bar staff were also friendly, super helpful, and made the stay enjoyable. Fantastic job, Marriot. read more

My niece had her wedding in Sunol, and she picked this hotel for her wedding guests, she was able to block out several rooms and get us a discounted rate. When I called to book my room, the person who helped me named Ruth was very nice and professional. She booked my room with ease. We are from out of town and while we were killing some time before check in, I got an email saying our room was ready for a early check in, almost 3 hours before! We were able to check in right from my phone and got our keys at the front desk. Quick and easy! The rooms were a little on the smaller side, we got two double beds, the space was tight but the rooms were clean and comfortable. There was one SMALL closet and not enough space for your luggage. The lobby was very nice it has a restaurant and a full bar. The staff was very nice and helpful. The pool area was very nice, has a nice large sitting area, fire pit, the wedding party hung out in the pool area, ordered food and drinks it was a nice relaxing space. Overall it was a pleasant stay and would stay here again. read more

We stayed here for 4 nights and it was great. Rooms were super clean and beds were comfortable. Hotel has been recently remodeled and looks great. Beautiful window views of the mountains, trees and wild turkeys. Bar and restaurant were both good. We had dinner there our final night. It was pricey but the portions made up for it. I can't wait to come back. Also Tea at the front desk was very helpful and kind. read more

Pleasanton Marriott - View from bed - Hotels Near Me - Pleasanton, California

From the moment we arrived and were checked in by Steve, we knew that we would be in for a pleasant, relaxing time! The accommodations were so comfortable and ample. Beds and linens were amazing! We overlooked the pool area, which was great. Breakfast was soo yummy! Had the buffet for a few mornings and then ordered off of the menu for some variety. Staff in the Market area were so attentive! Rheyschell, Jocelyn and Teresa were always on their game. We are Platinum Elite mambers so we also frequented the M Club. Karla was a whirlwind, keeping all of the area stocked. Forrest and Trina at the desk were always there to assist. What an experience! We were treated like family, and felt very welcome! Kendall, thanks for inspiring such a great team!

The Pleasanton Marriott is a very nice hotel. My husband and I stayed one night on New Year's Eve and we really enjoyed our stay. The hotel was not too busy on New Year's Eve, so the hotel upgraded us to a room on a higher floor facing the pool with M club lounge access. The M Club was stocked with snacks, drinks, sodas, and coffee. The lounge had lots of tables, chairs, and TV's, which was perfect so everyone who used the lounge could spread out. Lounge access also means free hot buffet breakfast in the morning. The front desk/lounge area was nicely decorated for Christmas. The rooms were very nice, modern with hardwood floors. I am always a fan of Marriott beds and these were no different. They were nice and firm. I seriously slept like a baby on them. The hotel also has a pretty good sized gym, pool, and jacuzzi. Another plus of this hotel is that there is free parking. There is no permit needed and they do not charge a daily fee to park like some other nicer hotels do. I would defiantly stay here again. read more

Lowered a star because of low quality M Club food for 5pm to 7pm. Mini corn dogs and Oreo cookies? That's the best this Marriott can do? However, M Club breakfast was typical and good. Thermostat auto switches from heat to cool so can't maintain constant temperature. No way to turn it off. Nice refurbished room since here a few years ago. Excellent front desk encounters both days. read more

Pleasanton Marriott - Crowded pool and spa by same group all afternoon and evening. - Hotels Near Me - Pleasanton, California

I stayed here for the weekend for a conference (we used conference facilities & catering) and highly recommend! Hotel: spacious room that was clean and functional. Only downside was the hvac system was either hot or cold. Bed and pillows were average. They don't have cribs but offered us a pack n play which I didn't use. It was enough space for 2 adults & a baby (we brought our own bassinet). Conference space: typical space but it was comfortable & had better than average lighting. They didn't have tech support so we had to figure it out. Catering: staff was phenomenal & the breakfast & lunches were delicious! They accommodated food restrictions too! Free parking & cabanas by the pool though it was raining when we were there. Convenient location! read more

There is a lot to like about the Dublin Pleasenton Marriott, but a lot of it didn't fit our needs. To start off with, this is not a hotel for people without a car. Beyond the restaurant that serves a fantastic morning buffet and a few dinner dishes, there are no easily walkable restaurants, and certainly no walkable grocery stores. It's surrounded by corporate offices and a couple small malls - although sadly quite a few of the mall stores are now empty, which gives the area a rundown deserted feeling. The safest way to the closest grouping of food based stores is to take the BART pedestrian overpass, but even though as the crow flies it looks close, it's about a 30+ minute hike each way to the closest Sprouts and CVS. We didn't realize how extremely isolated the hotel was, because Google says it's a 20 minute walk to the nearest Amazon Locker - it's not. If you're prepared to use your car each day you should be fine, but without one, Lyft and Uber aren't common enough in this area so it takes a good long while to get Doordash, Instacart, or an Uber/Lyft ride and currently the hotel no longer offers a shuttle. The hotel itself is fairly posh (outside of questionable elevators) and seems to have been upgraded recently. The pool area especially looks straight out of a resort. The M Lounge access tack-on is a great touch and overall worth it if you're part of a couple that plans to eat breakfast at the buffet ($25/pp) each day. The room was also overall very comfortable and comes with a safe, although the included fridge (without a temperature knob) doesn't stay very cold. Our main issue with the hotel was that the A/C filter in our room needed to be changed and was covered in dirt. We toughed it out by leaving the window open but the poor A/C air quality mixed in with the automatic bathroom lights (which loved to turn on by themselves) gave me three nights of less than 6 hours of sleep. This was partly due to the bathroom door not being opaque - so any type of bathroom light (even with a closed door) was bright like a search beacon, definitely not a plus for light sleepers. The buffet and the floor to ceiling window that opened up about 6 inches to a gorgeous view were the top value adds for us - the pool is nice, but receives a lot of debris from the surrounding trees. The three stars instead of only two is because the gentleman at the front honored it when we were misquoted that we could check out early at no charge. He let us know normally they do not refund unused nights, so it was much appreciated. Overall, I would say if you are attending a conference or working within a 10 mile radius, have a car and aren't a light sleeper, this hotel will work out just fine for you. Otherwise I'd choose to stay at the more walkable Livermore outlet area, so at the very least you have another option to the hotel buffet. read more

The Pleasanton Marriott is a nice choice to stay at. It's located in a convenient area near many shopping & food options. There's a lot of parking spaces available for guests. The lobby was nice and clean with modern interior touches. There's a variety of public places to sit for guests who want to mingle. There's a beautiful outdoor swimming pool area with a hot tub, day beds and lawn chairs, but due to Covid-19, the entire area is closed. Too bad... I would have loved to spend some time in the water. The staff are kind and professional. Everyone wore masks. Covid-19 & social distancing restrictions were enforced. They even had a cleaning video playing in the hotel lobby throughout the day. The rooms were comfortable, spacious and very clean. I like that they have a comfy lounge chair to enjoy watching the large swivel TV on, besides in the bed. The refrigerator was great for keeping our food fresh. The bathroom had good water pressure. I would recommend staying here if you're in the Pleasanton area. read more

If you're looking for a bad place to stay, this is your place. Here are the main issues: -Water Shutoff: It remained unavailable for two hours. -Water Quality: When running water in the sink and shower, it came out brown, raising serious concerns about cleanliness and safety. -Misrepresented Laundry Facilities: The hotel was advertised on Expedia as having onsite laundry, but upon check in I was informed that the service was offsite at a sister property. The limited onsite machines were inadequate, with one out of the two washing machines out of order. -Noise Issues: Walls are paper thin. I could hear EVERYTHING from neighboring rooms. Unfortunately, Yelp doesn't support videos or else I would include in review. -Wi-Fi Connectivity: Unbelievable slow. -Customer Service Issues: Rude. I'll leave it at that. -Heating Issues: The room's thermostat was unreliable, leaving the temperature inconsistent and uncomfortable. -Mariott Points: You won't receive any points if you book through third-parties even if you're a loyal member. read more

Great experience. We were early and Brook was very accommodating, extremely kind and checked us in early, even let us pick our room. Thoroughly explained all the amenities. Our stay had breakfast included. Unfortunately pool was closed but they had an alternate solution but was re-openned the next day. Buffet was good, waitresses we're nice. Located right next to the freeway and near gas stations. Parking free and abundant. No hidden fees, all as expected. The app is a wonderful resource, you can even use your phone as a key Refrigerator in room along with iron/board. Will def be back. read more

The rooms are actually pretty nice looking but there's just so many different things missing that you normally get there's no microwave there's no closet nothing to hang clothes on. No bathtub which I thought the room came with but it's just a shower. There's no option to turn the air or heater off so it just stays on and it's very loud. There's only about 20 channels on the TV and The Wi-Fi is very slow not even enough to stream anything they will however sell you their premium internet for $14 or whatever it is. I'm never coming back to this place that's for sure. They don't even have vending machines I don't know if it's because they think this there too fancy to have a vending machine or whatever but that's pretty lame. read more

I visit the area frequently and the Pleasanton Marriott has become my go-to hotel. There's a couple other Marriott properties within 1-2 miles, but this one is the best. The lobby is updated and spacious and this property generally feels very open -- no crowds or wait for the elevator. The rooms were recently renovated during COVID and now have hard flooring, which I appreciate. No nasty hotel carpet here! The M Club is available for members w/ Marriott status or can be purchased separately for a daily fee. It's always stocked with soda, sparkling water, and snacks. Throughout the day, they also serve complimentary hot appetizers. Nothing gourmet, but good enough if you need a snack. The hotel restaurant is ok. Not terrible, but there are certainly much better restaurants nearby. Biggest downside is that finding parking can be difficult, especially at night. read more

the m club evening hostess was great s-////was the best and most helpful of any i have stayed at

I enjoyed my stay here. I would stay here again. Positives: Nice pool area. Right off the highway. Comfortable lounge. Comfortable bed. Clean. Quiet on the pool facing side. Large plentiful luggage carts at main entrance. Free parking. Neutral or Negative: Hotel is a maze--you can't park in front of your room and easily load and unload. There is ample parking--you will get a free spot somewhere but it can be a walk and move to get things into your room. I did not mind--just cautioning you. They have really nice luggage carts to offset that. Staff is efficient, will get you what you need, but they will not baby you. Breakfast buffet is $20 a person. Million Dollar Tip: There is a great Asian restaurant just a 5-minute car drive away on the other side of the highway: Burma Burma 7294 San Ramon Rd (Get the Pepper Chicken or Pepper Shrimp dish.) read more

The Pleasanton Marriott is started showing her age, but still well maintained and comfortable. The gentlemen at the front desk help me check in was wonderful! He keeps looking for the rooms until he found me the room I wanted even on a sold out day. The room I have is clean, maintained in good condition and comfortable. The walls and door also does a good isolation. I don't hear anything from next door or the hallway. The only problem I have is the air condition system seems not working very well! The temperature in the room go up and down too much even I don't touch the setting. I have sets the temperature for 74 degrees, but the room is too hot when the heater turn on and too cold when the heater turn off at night! The location of the hotel is good and lots of parking available even on a sold out day. It is also very nice Pleasanton Marriott parking is free. A lots of shopping mall or restaurants near by. The location is excellent. I know I'll be back next time when I'm in the areas. read more
