The beauty of our building and a stunning Fall made for memorable wedding days that we are delighted to share with you! Join us over the coming weeks to swoon and enjoy.
A sincere thank you to Nicole Blumberg Photography for the beautiful images.

If you love all things Berkeley City Club, we have some exciting news to share.
BCC Member, Dr. Sarah Gill, has written a book about our history and it features beautiful images by Club photographer, Trevor Johnson.
The book is over 200 pages beginning with the early women’s movement and planned construction of the building, to the architecture and spaces and then sharing about the Club through its decades of existence in Berkeley. A bright future awaits the Club for many years to come and this is a truly special book to savor our treasured past.
Copies are available for purchase at the Club’s Front Desk for $45/each, with payment available via cash or check. The author has generously chosen to split the royalties of the book, with $10 from each going to the Berkeley City Club Conservancy to aid in the preservation of our building.
Consider purchasing one for yourself or give one as a gift this upcoming holiday season.
Feel free to contact our Team to purchase at 510.848.7800 or info@berkeleycityclub.com.
Our special offer dates have been a popular addition over recent months.
We now have just two dates remaining to enjoy a special gift from the BCC!

Securing one of these dates and mentioning our special offer, lets you choose one of these:

Calling all architecture and design lovers!
As you may know, we partner with a group called the Berkeley City Club Conservancy committed to preserving our beautiful building and promoting the legacy of Julia Morgan.
Beginning next week, on Thursday, September 22, they begin a four-part series, titled, Women Speak: Four Architects on Design and Urbanism.
The lineup of women are talented leaders in the profession of architecture.
Consider attending one or more of the talks in the comfort of the Club.
We invite you to peek at their Eventbrite page for more details or to purchase tickets.
Summer has come to a close and we are delighted to head into the cooler Fall days.
Even though the days are shorter, we have the natural light that brings joy to many.
We are grateful for such a beautiful venue, hotel, club and restaurant for all to enjoy.
Stunning images by Christian Peacock Photography.
Wishing you all the best this Fall and always!

Cheers!
For all that have enjoyed our building, you know the special feeling the building provides.
It is majestic beauty that has been cherished for almost nine decades.
Originally constructed as a private women’s club in 1929, now both men and women enjoy the grandeur of our spaces and the privilege of a membership with us.
When I walked through the doors I felt a 10-lb weight lift from my shoulders (I hadn’t even known it was there!) Serenity and beauty, friendships old, possibly new – what could be better?”
Our members enjoy swimming in the waters of our pool, among countless other benefits.
Recently, a member reflected on the joys of swimming.
Floating on your back in the pool at Berkeley City Club, with the room’s arches bringing a crisp order to the roughly textured concrete walls, you feel as privileged as a Hearst. As a club member confides, with the air of one sharing a guilty pleasure: “When you have it all to yourself, it’s like you’re the princess in the pool.”
To learn of the many benefits available to BCC members, peruse our website.
The Berkeley City Club has received a nomination for “Best Hotel Pool” by USA Today.
Take a moment and cast a vote for us, each day until Monday, August 1st.
We appreciate your support.
