Venues & Event Spaces in Benicia, CA

“Went there about 4 or 5 years ago to do a ghost hunt. The people that work at the hall were very friendly and welcoming. The hall has a wonderfull history and I would like to visit here again. I still wonder what those odd boxes with numbers on them built into the wall was used for, no one there knew.”

“Gorgeous event for my daughter’s wedding. Many guests complimented the venue. The food was delicious -5 stars. Danville bakery did a great job on the cake- 5 stars. The florals were beautiful- 4.5 stars. The bridal suite & groom’s private rooms are top notch. They had access to the venue for two additional hours before the contracted event time. A few hiccups for me that made it a 4 star event. The “pick a seat not a side” sign. I would not recommend using it as in our case one group took most of the seating in both front rows. Also the front rows on the right side had a lot of sun and a little warm even on a mild day. There are empty urns everywhere that you have to fill with your own flowers or leave empty. That was another $100 for plants that we didn’t want to spend. Make sure you read the entire binder. We were caught off guard with the coordinator leaving during dinner with three hours left in the event. It turns out it was actually in the binder that the coordinator would leave mid event, however it was never mentioned in any of our meetings and we missed reading that part in the binder. The coordinator will provide you with a phone number to contact them during the event if you need anything however I only got a response to one out of three texts and that was an initial “test message”. There are several add ons available for a fee including faux wisteria, which was offered to us at a discounted price . We declined paying a couple hundred to add on faux floral and then it turned out to be free. Presumably the florist didn’t want to take it down and put it back up between events. We definitely enjoyed the free upgrade. My daughter was charged a delivery fee for her ceremony florals despite the florist already contracted to provide the reception florals through the venue package which I felt was an unnecessary up-charge. We ended up missing some low value personal items from the bridal suite (no one would have stolen them) and no one knows who cleaned up/cleared out the room at the end of the night. I would recommend multiple point persons for making sure you’ve got everything when you leave. Our one point of contact said she felt rushed out of the venue by the staff. It cost about $15,500 for the elite package for 68 people on a Sunday in March, not counting photographer, dance floor and all personal items we brought. We rented a 12 x 15 dance floor from Quantam rentals for $725. It ended up being just a bit too small for 68 people and if I had it to do over we would go with a 15 x 15 which would have fit with plenty of room to still have tables on both sides. Overall I would recommend Jefferson Street Mansion. It’s a beautiful venue!”

“IMHOWe came here for a private event, a family baby shower. This venue is huge! Before entering the building, a nice security guard greeted us and gave us options to get to the second floor, either elevator or stairs. We chose the wooden stairs! The whole venue has a cool, rustic feel with its wood and brick facades. My first impression was that they must've just freshly varnished the entire floor because that's what it smelled and looked like. Thankfully the smell didn't overtake the venue. The floor looked great! LOLThe family did all the decorating and provided the food. There is a small kitchen to do prep work. In the back there is a long bar area and a small stage. Table and chair storage holders are big and cumbersome and can't be camouflaged during your event. Bathrooms were slightly dated but brightly lit. They should update their bathroom stall latches to something other than hook and eye closures. Overall, a nice spacious area for your event.”

“Here to visit family and this hotel did not disappoint. The video kiosk greeting was a little surprising when i checked in but Nathalia was a great help and got me checked in and into my room without incident.

The room was clean and everything worked the way it was described. Bed is a little soft but thats a personal prefence thing. Shower was hot and refreshing and the soaps and persnal care supplies were a recognizeable name brand. The towels were soft and the room gave me everything i needed during my stay.

The hotel location was right off the freeway, but short distance to everything i could have needed. It was a safe friendly area and the parking had video surveillance to protect my rental vehicle. I would highly recommend this hotel as an option if you are needing to be in the bay area”
