We will seek to lodge as many players as possible (first Grandmasters, and then in order of date of entry) with local chess-playing families. You should reserve a hotel, and we will inform you if we have free housing for you, at which point you could cancel the reservation.

There is not a single, official hotel for this event. Players may find lodging anywhere they choose in Berkeley. Here are two possibilities at which chess players have stayed in the past:

Berkeley YMCA
2001 Allston Way
Berkeley, CA 94704

Golden Bear Inn
1620 San Pablo Ave
Berkeley CA 94702
