representative photoClaremont Club & Spa, A Fairmont Hotel
★★★★★·$$$$·41 Tunnel Road, Berkeley, CA 94705
A white 1915 castle in the Berkeley Hills with sweeping San Francisco Bay views, the Claremont is the East Bay's grand wellness destination. The spa pairs a dry sauna, steam room, and saline whirlpool with a vast 40,000-square-foot club — three year-round heated pools, tennis, and 75+ weekly classes. It's a genuine resort 20 minutes from downtown SF, and for many the best full sauna-and-pool ritual in the whole Bay Area. Worth the bridge crossing.
