Waterfront Plaza Oakland, San Francisco East Bay
The Waterfront Plaza Hotel is currently undergoing a multi-million dollar renovation. This upgrade includes all guestrooms, the lobby, meeting rooms, exterior painting and our restaurant. While not all areas will be under renovation at the same time, please be aware that over the next months, we will have construction noise during the daytime. We have taken many steps to ensure the impact on our guests' stay is minimal. During the renovation period, coffee and tea will be served daily in the morning and a wine and cheese reception in the evening. Further, we invite you every Thursday to our "Anchor's Away" Barbeques by the pool to meet with managers and learn about our progress.
The Waterfront Plaza Hotel is the perfect place for a fun and relaxing Oakland vacation. Are you ready to unwind? Then put your feet up and watch the boats in the Oakland Harbor sail by. Are you looking for adventure? Then step outside and explore Jack London Square. It’s all right at our door.
As our guest, you will also enjoy our private fitness center, valet parking, heated pool and sauna, high speed Internet access, chartered boat services, private boat docking facilities and spectacular views of San Francisco. Our experienced concierge staff is on hand 24-hours a day to assist you in all your leisure activities.
Jack’s Bistro is now closed for remodeling. Please stay tuned for an exciting new restaurant to open. In the meantime, we will continue to offer full catering services and a breakfast buffet.
