Went to a wedding here, the space was quite lovely.
Welcome! You have just found Oakland’s best kept secret. The Terrace Room is known to many as a little gem, tucked inside The Lake Merritt Hotel with panoramic views of the mesmerizing Lake Merritt. The beautiful, Art Deco building was built in 1927. Then it was a trendy hot spot, featuring Big Bands and dancing, including Count Basie. Today, we specialize in weddings, but host other celebrations as well. We have won multiple awards including Reader's Choice by the East Bay Express, Best of 2022 and 2023 by The Knot, and Couple's Choice by WeddingWire.
Tours by appointment Monday through Saturday.
