trying to find out the Hyatt that's the closest (easiest access) to the Emeryville Amtrak station...seems like i read one of them has an enclosed "walk over" between the hotel and the station? recommendations for the closest car rental company. thanks much.

The Hyatt Regency Emeryville is the closest Hyatt to the Emeryville Amtrak Station. It is located just across the street from the station, and there is indeed a covered, elevated walkway that connects the hotel to the station, making it extremely convenient for travelers with luggage or those arriving by train.

In addition to the Hyatt Regency, there are a few other lodging options nearby, but none have the direct covered connection to the station.

For car rentals, the Emeryville area has several options very close to the Amtrak station. Most major rental companies have offices within a short drive, and some may offer shuttle service from the station. The closest and most convenient choices include:

  • Enterprise Rent-A-Car – located just a few minutes from the station, offers shuttle service.
  • Hertz – also nearby, easy access from the freeway and station area.
  • Avis/Budget – typically within 1–2 miles from the station with quick pickup options.

If you want the absolute easiest logistics, staying at Hyatt Regency Emeryville and arranging a car rental pickup near the hotel or via shuttle is ideal. You can also consider booking your rental in advance online to ensure availability, especially during peak travel periods.

Additional tips:

  • Check if the Hyatt Regency offers any partnerships with rental companies for guest pickup or discounts.
  • If arriving by Amtrak late in the evening, verify shuttle or rental pickup times in advance.
  • The covered walkway is particularly helpful in bad weather or if traveling with family/luggage.

Overall, the Hyatt Regency Emeryville is the most convenient hotel for accessing the Amtrak station, and nearby car rental agencies make it easy to continue your journey by car.
