PROPERTY INFORMATION:

UNCOVER TIMELESS LUXURY IN UPTOWN OAKLAND To us, Oakland means innovation, adventure, and restless creativity. At Kissel Uptown Oakland, stay in the core of the city’s most vibrant district, Uptown, the center of an eclectic arts and entertainment scene. Our story and this hotel honor the city’s past by celebrating a thriving Oakland of the present. This restored and reimagined building embraces the neighborhood’s history and spirit with grand Beaux-Arts architecture—towering columns, locally-commissioned artworks, bold décor, and plentiful natural light.

We’re adjacent to the diverse restaurants and venues at The Hive, and a short walk from Art Deco landmarks like the Fox Theater.
