Top California Theater Hotel Reviews

Hilton San Jose

10/10 Excellent

"Nope"

Towneplace Suites By Marriott San Jose Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"What is unexpectedly delightful about Marriott Suites is that they have a full range of amenities - including a washer / dryer! After being on the road for 8 days, the luxury of cleaning EVERYTHING you own is just too much. The room was exceptionally clean and functional, and the staff could not have been nicer / more helpful. A thoroughly delightful place to stay."

Remodeled Spanish Bungalow Suite • Short Walk to SJSU + Parking

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect little stay for me and my pooch. Quiet & clean, nice kitchenette area. The only thing missing is a bathroom sink with mirror. There’s nowhere in the bathroom to wash your face, brush your teeth, put on makeup and get ready for your day. There is a full length mirror, which is great. Cute little sitting outdoor area for morning coffee or afternoon cocktail. One great thing, it’s in a gated area with a very small yard so my dog could be safely contained outside, and it’s private. "
