Carmen

"My preferred place to stay in San Jose (have probably stayed here at least 20 times, and I have stayed at many places in town so I have a fair idea of what's "normal" here even for the high-end hotels). Large and clean rooms, great location and staff. Only downside is there is no restaurant/bar in the hotel, rather in the separate casino which is a bit sleazy for my tastes. But there are decent restaurants within a short walk."

Hampton by Hilton San Jose Airport

8/10 Good

"When I made my reservation I noted that I would be arriving late so that the shuttle driver would look for me. I had traveled for about 14 hours and was exhausted. I waited about 50 minutes before calling the hotel, all while watching other shuttles come and go 3-4 times. So for the unreliability of the shuttle service Id give this hotel a 1. But the staff was great, the room and hotel were very clean and I was impressed by the breakfast, that’s why I give them 4 stars."
