Fodor's Expert Review Berkeley City Club
2315 Durant Ave., Berkeley, California, 94704, USA
Moorish design and Gothic architecture join with modern amenities at this historic locale steps from the campus, arts venues, and eateries. The Berkeley Women's City Club opened its doors in 1930, designed by one of the university's first woman civil engineers, Julia Morgan. Now a national landmark, her "little castle" features 38 time-honored rooms, a social club, fine dining in lush interior courtyards, a vintage-tiled indoor swimming pool, and a performing arts theater.
