Was there for a company meeting for 4 nights. Fairly easy to check in and the front desk was very helpful. My room was located off the main tower in building B. The front desk did provide instructions on how to get to my room/building from the main lobby. I still got lost as the property does not have good signs to show how to get to each separate building. I had to walk around the parking several times to find my building/room. I even asked a staff who was walking outside, and he does not even know how to get to my building... and said something like "this place is a maze..." Other than the above, every thing else is fine. The housekeeper ladies were very nice and friendly. The catering services were also very good. Pricing wise, since it was a company paid trip, I'm not aware of the daily rates. However if you are driving and not a Marriott member, daily parking is $40 with in and out privileges. Standard WiFi is $17.99 per day. read more

My buddy suggested meeting up for drinks at Santa Clara Marriott before having a steaks at a restaurant not far away. I am always up for trying something new. The bar is in the front right beyond the registration desks. The first thing I noticed was the pleasant scent when I walked in. So many hotels have been doing this and I like it. It's a nice classy touch. The bar itself is decent. It's a full bar and it had a generous offering of spirits. I went with a pint of Sam Adams Winter Brew and I think my buddy had a martini. There were several large monitors that had college football on and this is a plus. The bartender was okay. I don't expect much, however, I do want them to be knowledgeable about the beers on tap. He seemed a little disinterested in my questions. It was fine; I ordered what I wanted. The hotel itself was very quiet, almost empty. The upside to that was we were able to carry on a conversation easily. Anyway, not sure if I will be back. Parking is $40 (yikes), although they do validate. Time for some pics. read more

We resided at the Santa Clara Marriott for a few days for business. The staff here are outstanding, shout-out to Logan and Paris (I hope I spelled his name right). The first day we got here, we were famished and wanted to get a quick bite. A Marriott staffer, Logan seated us, cool dude! We got the menu and perused it. While there isn't a large assortment of food items, I decided to get the panko chicken fingers with fries, awesomely delicious. While there are quite a few places to dine in Silicon Valley, we actually ended up eating here for dinner the few days we were here. All the food is excellent. I just wanted to list a few items that really stood out: Bucatini al Pesto con Guanciale, Argentinian Steak Lomo Saltado, Classico Pizza, and the Wagyu Burger. Also, if you need a good workout, the gym was absolutely exceptional! Before I forget to mention, this was an exceptional Marriott, the staff was excellent, and I look forward to coming back. read more

Was here on business and had a pleasant stay.room on 14th floor of tower was clean and remodeled. Lobby was as nice and clean There was a musty type smell when the A/C was on, so I cracked the balcony door open - weather is fabulous. Worked out of the large M-Club for several hours. Decent breakfast and snacks. Coffee machines are right by the entrance door which doesn't seem like a great idea. No water bottles here, but bring your own for water dispenser. Proximity to airport is awesome. Uber/Lyft is around $15-20z. Lots of great food /restaurant options right past the 101. read more

Don't be fooled by the exterior photos of this hotel online - it's actually quite nice! The lobby is fairly spacious and boasts a sizable bar and a decent hotel market. The accommodations were lovely. We got put up on the top floor. Our room had vaulted ceilings, a small balcony, and a nice view of the road and the hotel pool. The room was clean and the bed and sofa were VERY comfortable. The walls could be a little thin (I could hear someone's alarm going off in the morning) but nothing too wild. Overall would stay here again! My only gripe is that we decided on this hotel due to the close proximity to the theme park, but learned the hard way that it's nearly a mile walk to the front gate! Definitely got our steps in and the way there in the morning wasn't bad. But on a toasty day, the walk back to the hotel was rough! While I know they're no longer affiliated with the park, I wish there was a shuttle or some sort of transport, even for a fee. read more

Santa Clara Marriott - View from the top floor balcony - Hotels Near Me - Santa Clara, California

Stayed here recently and overall it was decent, but not amazing. The room was clean and comfortable, and the staff were super friendly--especially at the breakfast restaurant. They really made the mornings feel welcoming. The location is pretty close to Levi's Stadium, which was great, but the walk back was long. Not the easiest stroll, especially after a long concert. We decided to walk back after a $100 pedicab ride there. One of the better parts of the stay was renting a cabana by the pool. It was $100 for 2-6 PM and came with bottled water and a fruit platter, which felt like a good deal and made for a relaxing afternoon. The downside? I got charged twice for it. I called and they said they'd send it to accounting, but I haven't heard anything back yet. For $460 a night, I expected a bit more. It wasn't bad, but definitely didn't feel worth the price tag. read more

Our little one loves fireworks but is ready to lay down by the time they start. This year we made our way to Great America for the day to enjoy rides - her first visit - then to Marriott for the evening to fulfill our reservation. We reserved a high tower room for the night to ensure our little one would be able to see the fireworks from the comfort of our room in her pjs. We succeeded! Initially our room faced the opposite direction of the fireworks. Upon discovering this, I made my way down to check in and was upgraded to a higher floor facing Great America. Breana was amazing. Her customer service, friendliness, professionalism and genuine conversation was refreshing. She checked us in and assisted us with changing the room for a better view. Our daughter enjoyed the firework show from the balcony of our room. She was in my arms almost the entire duration of the firework show then into daddy's. I'm so grateful we were able yo create a memory for her. The King High Tower room was spacious, modern and clean. The linens were soft, well maintained and contemporary. The bed itself was plush and easy to sink your body into to mold your silhouette. The bathroom was bright, the rain head shower was polished and clean in absence of water build up, the shower size was decent and easy to navigate within. The countertop was modern with upgraded finishes and it allowed for all of our products to be kept at one time on separate sides. Since we arrived to the first room around 915, second around 940 and fireworks ended around 10, neither my husband or I wanted to depart the property for food. Food service was available through 11p via Marriott so we ordered in. Turkey club with a side of fries or a salad was $21, the vegan burger with a side was $21 as well. A large San Pellegrino was $7 and an orange juice was $5. You have the option of going to the lobby to retrieve your meal (free) or room delivery for a $5 fee - we paid the fee. My husband enjoyed his turkey club with side salad and I ate my vegan burger. The vegan burger came y with half an avocado in slices (a huge deal) along chipotle sauce. The vegan burger was well flavored, BUT THE BUN was overcooked, hard and burnt inside and out. The burnt bun made it hard to eat the vegan burger which was very dissatisfying and disappointing. The vegan burger fell apart and I ended up eating a messy, deconstructed burger. For $21 redo the bun. The one missing star is for the burnt buns and my inability to eat my vegan burger without having to keep putting back together following each bite. The buns were impossible to eat nor enjoy so I left them off the burger. Overall, we were extremely satisfied with our stay, abominations, customer service received via check in and room service and the immediate assistance to provide a room specifically requested for our needs. Having room service available until 11p was exceptional for us. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by the Santa Clara Marriott. I wasn't planning on staying here and made reservations at the last minute with my employer's travel agency. This Marriott is located in Santa Clara across the Great America. This Marriott most likely used to be one of their flagship locations as Great America used to be owned by the Marriott. The property was huge. It had convention halls, 2 towers and a couple of 2-3 story buildings facing their garden and pool. Remodeling was done a couple years ago modernizing the rooms. Check in was quick and easy by Kunal and his coworker. They knew how to process a virtual payment (VCP) that my employer uses, without this Marriott listed as one of my employers "Most Preferred Hotels". Our room was on the 10th floor of the larger tower. The room came with a king bed, a sofa and a large screen TV. The bathroom was adequate. No bathtub. There was a shower and a hand shower. Water pressure was weak on the 10th floor as it took 4-5 toilet flushes before everything flushed away. The bed was a little soft for me. With enough meds, I was able to get a good nights sleep. My room had a balcony with a view toward the park and Levi's stadium. The exercise room is downstairs by the pool. The gym had everything including stuff I couldn't use. They have a couple of Life Fitness and Peleton bikes that I was able to use with my bad ACL. They had several weight lifting machines, dumbells, and lots of ellipticals, treadmills, and 2 stair climbing machines. It was one of the better gym hotels. The pool was a large 25 yard pool with lane lines for lap swimming. They even had tennis courts. An M Club is available for Bonvoy members who are platinum and above. The M Club is one of the better ones around serving both breakfast and an evening appetizer. The personnel working there were friendly. The morning crew was Team Tagalog. They offer the usual scrambled eggs, potatoes, sausage, bacon, fresh fruit, pastries, oatmeal, juice and coffee. It wasn't until the last day of my 5 night stay that I found out that this M Club does things better than other M Clubs. At breakfast, they offer cooked to order eggs if you ask, or if they decide to offer. It was sad that they didn't offer it to me until my last breakfast; and that was from me watching their interactions with other Asian customers. Perhaps I was not Asian enough for them the first 4 days of my stay. In the evenings, the M Club was manned by Myra, Olga and Julian. They did their job, and warmed up to me after seeing me for a few days. The evening appetizer offerings were fantastic. It wasn't just an appetizer, it was dinner. They offered dishes like salmon vindaloo, chicken wings, pan seared cod and a seafood paella. Along with dinner, they also provided desserts. The food was fantastic. The Santa Clara Marriott is a good hotel. It was nicely remodeled. The room was okay. The food was good. The gym was adequate. I liked that they knew how to process my VCP. I probably will stay here again for work. read more

I had a summit conference event here today. I did not stay overnight at this hotel, I am only rating and commenting on the food and venue. Overall, breakfast and lunch was good. The venue was fine. Bathroom was clean. I did not feel too hot or too cold, so the temperature at the venue was perfect. I still wore layers just in case. There was a line to leave the parking lot waiting to get through the gate as everyone was leaving. It was good that there was a parking attendant helping to get the line going otherwise we may wait even longer. Overall, service was good. I would recommend having an event at this hotel if you need a venue to host an event. read more

Updating my review from last year. I came to the Marriott again for 4th of July weekend. The room I had in the North Tower seemed even more up-to-date than last year. I love it when a hotel room has many more charging stations and outlets available than average, and this one did. They have fixed up the parking lots. I didn't leave and return on this trip, but when I went out with a friend, his parking ticket let us out of the lot easily. I wrote a separate review for the restaurant in the lobby (Bosc & Bartlett) because it was a crappy experience. This hotel space is very good for meetings, and they are good about keeping everything clean. This visit, I sat by the fire pit near the pool which I really recommend! read more

I arrived here for a six night stay during Stanford Commencement Weekend. Despite requesting a room on an upper floor of the property. I was issued a room on the second floor that required a map for me to get to. It was located on the rear of the property and took me a five minute walk to get to. Immediately across from the room was a utility closet. Traveling alone, I made sure I was on a call with someone during this time to ensure I was safe. The staff that I encountered during my stay was phenomenal. They made sure the room was well maintained and properly stocked. I unfortunately was unable to utilize most of the amenities due to the distance from the room. I did have breakfast there one morning and visited the fitness center on my final morning there prior to departure. read more

We stayed here recently for 2 nights in the garden terrace area, room 2719, which faces the parking lot. Room was quite, bed was comfortable, and we were able to walk downstairs to the parking lot easily. The location is nice that it's close to other cities such as Sunnyvale and Milpitas, so we can eat dinner at night or meet up with friends who in town. We even used the pool, which was rather big, and there is also a hot tub. Parking was too expensive at $40 per day! read more

This location was very surprising. Across from Great America! Looks vintage on the outside but the inside is pretty modern and spacious. I enjoyed my pool time. The food at M club was very good as well. I definitely recommend this location. read more

I have visited Santa Clara Marriott for conferences and events in the past years. Modern, upgraded, and relaxing. Check-in and check-out processes are smooth. Good front desk service. Restrooms are super clean and organized. Hotel does have a small market shop convenient for guests. Restaurant onsite. Excellent bar area and lobby space with plenty of tables & chairs onsite. You can easily find a cozy and comfortable spot to lounge around or wait quietly. The best part is having enough spaces to walk or roam around on foot, especially if you're in and out of conference rooms or seminars. Conference space is spacious and can fit 4-5 super large screens in front. Lots of rooms available. Great for parties and group social events. Hotel has done a great job in upkeeping and maintaining the entire building. There's public garage parking for a fee as well as parking lot on conference building side. Most large events can get free parking validations. I visit for business/financial seminars/classes, social networking events, jewelry/gift tradeshows, and more. It looks and feels great inside. Perfect location if you're in the area and not far from expressways/highways. I will keep coming back for future events onsite. read more

Nice hotel, and super close to Levi Stadium... Came to town for a football game, and chose the Santa Clara Marriott for our stay. Super friendly customer service at checking. Parking, although convenient, expensive. That is/was expected though. Room is comfy and well appointed. Although the layout of our room was a little goofy. The meh stuff: water pressure in the shower is almost non existent. The water doesn't even get hot. It's luke warm at best. Only like 3 channels on the tv worked. My husband wanted to watch the highlights of the football game we were just at (I'm sure you can all relate) and we couldn't get anything. Only news and maybe 2 other channels. If in the area again, I will probably choose this hotel again only because of my Marriott status. Definitely not the best Marriott I've ever stayed at, but certainly not the worst... read more

Nice hotel. GREAT gym. Amazing huge outdoor pool and hot tub. Good bar and restaurant. Tiny sundry shop. Comfortable beds. Absolutely disgusting filthy microwave with food crusted and caked on melted cheese smeared everywhere. Complete health hazard. read more

TlDr this location can do better about being fair to (returning) guests and communication. Wouldn't recommend staying during busy events unless you're familiar with the property. The check in process was understandably slow, although it felt slower than usual, but that isn't the purpose of my review. The front desk person that helped us didn't give us the best information upon check in, which I believe should be their goal when guests arrive. He also gave us unclear directions to our room, leading us to a couple of (short) staircases unnecessarily. We've stayed overnight at this hotel many times for concerts at Levi's, football games, and Great America - it's a location that my family and friends choose for convenience and the housekeeping staff is very nice. I must highlight that my stays have not involved parking over one day here. We were not happy with our last stay in particular because we were unfairly charged for parking. We left the hotel a day early but were charged for the full booking. I do accept some fault because I mistakenly forgot to check out, but we left very abruptly, but I also feel that their parking rules/billing are unclear. I remember checking my app for an option to check out, but it wasn't available until the day of check out. Bottom line is that I wish this location could have been more understanding of our situation, especially because I've stayed here in the past. Someone on the phone was nice enough to ask the manager for the accommodation, but ended up calling me later that day to let me know that they were unwilling to refund one day. Since we didn't check out in person, we didn't have a physical receipt. When the option to view it on the app became available, there was a notice that my bill is not available to view online for some reason. Not sure why. read more

It was an OK hotel stay experience. I was there for work and everything was good for the most part. I liked the comfort of the bed, despite there not being a fleece blanket to use. The bathroom and shower were nice and appreciated the travel-sized body lotion items instead of having them installed in the bathroom. The view was, of course, was crappy -- I always seem to get a room that has a view of the rooftop, despite being a tier'd rewards member. The balcony door was broken. Parking of course was annoying -- not only did you have to pay for it, but you also had to deal with the gate not opening at times. It's ludicrous for guests to have to deal with this at certain hotels, especially when the hotel owns the lot. The nice part about the hotel is that it was right by Our Lady of Peace and was able to go there for church and adoration, as well as the gift shop. read more

The rooms have been recently updated, but still not great, and loud corridors. If you come during a 49er game weekend, be prepared for huge crowds repping the Red and Gold. The bar area is packed, and they charge extra for game weekends, which we were not told about ahead of time, so beware. We have had mixed reviews about the check in process, sometimes great, a lot of time long lines with few staff to help. Its Location to Levi stadium and Great America keeps this place busy, but not the most comfortable rooms. read more

I came here for a two day seminar and this review will cover Marriott's meeting facilities and catering only. Catering: The meeting included both breakfast and lunch. The breakfast consisted of three types of fresh fruit, pastries, bagel or toast station, yogurt parfait and coffee/tea. Overall average. Lunches consisted of sandwich boxes or salads and was a mixed bag. The first day was a very boring turkey and lettuce sandwich with mustard and mayo packets. The next day was so much better with a chicken Italiano roll topped with roasted red pepper, cheese and a flavored spread. Facilities: Majority of us were using laptops or tablets throughout and there were a good number of power strips to connect. Wi-Fi coverage was spotty at the start but got better. Temperature controls were inconsistent as it got quite chilly on the second day. However the staff were on top of maintaining all areas around our conference so it was clean and orderly throughout the two days. Parking was plentiful and validated both days so attendees did not pay out of pocket. However it did get a bit congested in the AM as they were directing drivers due to a lot of cars arriving at the same time. Overall a decent place to attend large meetings. read more

Nice hotel, but a little pricey for what you get. Our 1st room, the shower door was broken. The maintenance man told us it was a known problem and it shouldn't have been sold/rented out so we ended up having to pack up all our things and moving rooms with no help which was a hassle. The room air felt stuffy. The server at the bar area was very nice. I've stayed at better marriotts. read more

I came here for a conference and stayed in the hotel for the duration. When I first arrived, the parking lot was confusing and far from the entrance. I learned early that every time I went from the hotel to the parking lot and back, I had to pass through the smoking area and there were always smokers there. It was located at the end of the only crosswalk from the lot to the hotel. I smelled like smoke from passing through there. Not pleasant. The refrigerator in the room wasn't working when I arrived, so maintenance came quickly to fix it. Only the front of the fixed refrigerator worked, so as long as I kept stuff in the door it was fine. The front desk staff was great. I couldn't figure out the coffee pot in the room so they easily walked me through it. The bar manager was cranky every day I interacted with her and snapped answers to all of our questions. I left a separate review for the bar on a different day. The room was located next to the electrical room and it made noise starting at 4 am nightly. It was ok once I figured out what the noise was and it wasn't going to come get me. As far as the convention layout went, there were two conventions going on at the same time. The other convention had its buffet smack in the middle of the convention I went to. You would think that they would put food closer to their own convention. One of the convention rooms was in the back of the restaurant. Everyone had a hard time finding it. The convention organizers put up signs but the hotel itself didn't have great signage for where to find this room. All in all the hotel was fine. It had a few things to work on but did a decent job for the most part. read more

I attended a conference here. Area was nice and clean. It has a decent size restroom with probably 10 stalls. The restroom was cleaned and there was someone cleaning and restocking paper towels after breakfast and after lunch. That was very thoughtful. Breakfast is as mediocre average pastry and fruit along with coffee, tea and juice available. Lunch was surprisingly above average. Everything arrived was good. I tried everything except chicken breast. Beef was surprisingly tender instead of overcooked and dry, which was my first impression. Conference ballrooms we're large and spacious with water dispensers by each door. AC was on appropriately, outside is about 80-90 degrees and inside I had to wear a long sleeve. Outside of the wall had a decorative wall made of keyboard buttons. I thought that was creative and appropriate as we are in silicone valley. Getting out of the garage was hectic. Imagine a couple of hundred of people trying to get out of at the same time and each person has to pay at the gate without an attendant manning the gate? Rooms for improvement: perhaps setup a kiosk either inside the hotel or at the parking structure to pay in advance instead of paying at the gate with cars backing up and create unnecessary traffic and delay. read more

Honestly for a 3-star hotel this place blew me away. The bed was so comfortable - but the walls were paper thin. The staff were excellent and were pretty quick. There's about 700 rooms and serves as the hotel for the 49ers as it's walking distance to Levi stadium. They are fully staffed - didn't make it to the breakfast but heard it was expensive like standard hotels. If you get delivery you do have to pick up from the front desk. The only downfall is the place is a bit of a maze - hard to get into. Make sure you carry your hotel card as during football games the cops may not let you take the exit unless you say you're staying at the hotel. read more

Stayed here for the weekend for my daughter's dance competition. Beautiful hotel with modern decor. My daughter's and I stayed in a 2 queen bed standard room. The room was clean and well equipped. I love that there was plenty of closet and drawer space. One of the neat things that I like most was that our room was on the 1st floor and had a sliding glass that had access to the parking lot, so I parked my truck right in front of our room so that made unloading and loading so easy! There was a double lock on the sliding door so there was no worry about someone trying to get in from the parking lot. The room was well equipped, loved the smart tv for netflixing with my girls. No issues with cleanliness or wifi. They do daily cleaning in this hotel which was a pleasant surprise to me because I haven't seen that since before Covid. Parking was easy ($30/day) but if parking in the garage, it can get tight especially if you have a big car. In the lobby, they have a cute little coffee shop as well as a bar. They also have a restaurant on site but I didn't see it open during our stay. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again! read more

We have an annual charity event nearby this hotel and it's our 3rd year housing our 30-40 guests at this Marriott property, and we love it! The hotel team led by Suda, Ave, Tracey are so easy to work with. Each year we stay here, our guests discovers a little more. The gym is brand new, well kept, clean and maintained. The breakfast offering is quite extensive for a hotel breakfast. Hot Food offering is different each day, the pastries and baked goods were fresh, and the diced fruit was sweet, large pieces and premium selections like pineapple, blackberries, blueberries, honeydew. Hotel Bar has a good selection, bartender is accommodating. Rooms are above average. The hotel seems to be on the older side but it looks like the property had a recent renovation. Overall, I'd recommend anyone to stay here. Looking forward to come back! read more

The bar service was terrible.

We just stayed for a Morgan Wallen concert and just wanted to say how amazing this hotel was (not to mention you can walk to Levi's stadium). The staff were amazing! The management team was out and about asking if they can help and so caring ...they all had smiles and you can tell that trickles down to the other staff...as they were all great too! Hotel sold out both nights but you can tell how prepared they were. Whoever is in charge of marketing did an awesome job of catering to this event...and putting our concert as the theme of everything in the hotel. Also the rooms were spotless...not one complaint. We would 100% stay here again! Great job Marriott!!! read more

We were there for an annual conference. Polite staff, excellent rooms, good services. We only had a few minor issues and the front desk staff did their best to fix them immediately (ask for a bath mat because the shower floors are slippery!). We knew they appreciated our business. The restaurant was a bit pricey (we weren't impressed with the "Waygu" steak), and we'd prefer parking be included in the con room rate, but those were minor things. The conference will be here through at least 2028, and we will be, too! read more

Be VERY careful if you book an event at the Marriott. They will continue to charge your card without authorization even after expressly telling you they will not do so and without any notice or receipt. I would highly recommend booking elsewhere. The above was originally posted on January 8 but the plot thickens..... Ultimately, I discovered that Marriott had "lost" an almost $5K payment that I sent several months ago, despite my sending a confirming email for the payment. Apparently, it's too much work to notice when a payment coming in matches an outstanding balance. After that they charged my card without authorization twice and demanded another $2,000. When I sent them a reconciliation demonstrating that they in fact owed me $1,500 back, radio silence for four days until I followed up. Really really poor customer service, you will regret working with them. read more

Arrived on a Sunday in advance of the 49er game. The place was packed. About 70% of people not wearing masks. Even in line to check in. Even though you walk by a big sign saying masks required. A guy working at the bar didn't wear one and one wore one y def his chin. Whatever. I wouldn't want to have to enforce that either. Check in was super long. Confusing outside because there's a valet sign and podium and a lot of cars. But no valet. A lot of people park there for the game too so it was super crowded. Staff at check in snd the bar were incredibly nice. 5 star The room....2 stars at best. Old room. Old a/c. No decor. So boring. There was a leaky pipe in the hall and the ceiling was warped and dripping. Just an old property. read more

When you order an espresso martini and it's just shaken up "blue ice" and none of the ingredients usually in an espresso martini it's not a good time.

I just returned from a road trip during which I stayed at four different Marriott properties. My four reviews will encompass them all and provides comparison of four properties in the CA Central Coast area. After one night at our friends' home during our July-August 2022 Road Trip, we were in our second hotel of our road trip. This was a three-night stay at the Santa Clara Marriott in Santa Clara, CA. This was a much nicer location at which to stay than the previous Marriott property in Buellton, although again, our room was located at the very end of the hall! The room was clean and comfortable. We had no problems during our stay and in this case, the shower was great with good water pressure. This hotel was crazy busy due to a concert taking place nearby at the stadium on the night we checked in and what appeared to be a two-day wedding taking place. It was fun to see all of the people dressed in traditional fancy Indian clothing for the wedding events taking place. Again, we were provided free breakfast each morning as Platinum Bonvoy members and it was a big upgrade from the last location. Loved the oatmeal and accompaniments. Each day they had different options available to eat from cereals to different egg dishes, to different types of potatoes, etc etc etc. Very nice breakfast buffet In the room, we had plenty of charging receptacles on both sides of the bed, which was great! The king-sized bed was super comfy, although the pillows were ginormous and for some reason, they were foam, not feather pillows in the room, which is unusual. Luckily there was a normal-sized pillow in the bedding for the couch bed and it worked for me during the stay so I decided not to call and request feathers. This time, we did use the pool/jacuzzi area. The temps were perfect and while it was nighttime, both appeared to be appropriately clean. We also ate at the bar on our last night, eating chicken strips and fries with cocktails. Drinks were on the pricey side, but they were yummy! Staff was friendly, the hotel was nice and overall, that stay was a good one. Parking was $17 per night, which is a bummer, but not as bad as usual, which tends to be around $30-40/night at Marriotts. The location is just a little less than a mile to the Santa Clara convention center and less than a half mile to the entrance of California Great Adventure Amusement Park. For three nights, Friday through Monday, our points were 109,000 points, PLUS 12,000 upgrade cost for a "better room" Not sure better than what, but I did like the room. We've stayed here before and we'll likely stay there again in the future. read more

I came in on Friday 8/27 with my best friend for The Weeknd concert. Easy check-in, clean and cool room, AMAZING pillows. Staff was very friendly. Shoutout to Jawed, Sudath and Juan at the bar. You guys made our weekend. So knowledgeable of drinks and food plus super fun and engaging. We got an Uber to the show and were close enough to walk back from Levi's Stadium. The bath amenities are really nice. Not over powering or strong. I like that we had a sliding door to the outside and were able to park right by our room. One last shoutout to Jose from engineering for being so kind and escorting us to our room and carrying bags. Highly recommended! read more

Lots of great Marriott options in the San Jose area, picked this hotel as it was convenient location wise and full-featured. The hotel is relatively easy to get to, not too far from the highway and a decently sized complex. Nice spacious drop off area (yay!), but have to pay for parking (makes me sad, especially when there are hundreds of parking spots). The hotel definitely looks older, but the interior must have been remodeled. Lobby has plenty of spacious seating, and a large bar area (mediocre drink selection). Front desk was spacious, but they probably could have used another agent or two, there was a bit of a wait. There seems to be a tower and then additional rooms around the pool, I was put in the tower. Hallways are super dark - but the rooms themselves are remodeled and comfortable enough. Windows can always be bigger, and bathroom as well. But decent size with luggage storage and place to eat. Wi-Fi worked well. Club lounge had a good breakfast, but wasn't open at other hours (which is odd). There is a nice pool / hot tub area in the middle, but usually too cold to try to venture in. read more

I loved staying here! I went to see The Weeknd at Levi's stadium and stayed the night at this hotel. It was so convenient and an easy walk to the stadium and back! It's clean and cutely decorated. The showers are hot with great pressure. Will defs stay here again read more
