Bottom Line

The 164-room mid-range Hyatt House San Jose/Silicon Valley is a busy, family-friendly hotel that caters to business travelers during the week, and 49ers fans on the weekends. The hotel aims to feel like home to working visitors on extended stays; rooms are equipped with full kitchens, and there is a 24-hour market for groceries, as well as a bar for socializing or dining. Guest rooms are on the small side, but the decor is vibrant, modern, and cheerful.

Oyster Hotel Review

HYATT House San Jose/Silicon Valley

Scene

Vibrant design and fun common spaces

The Hyatt House San Jose/Silicon Valley is a hotel with two personalities: Silicon Valley business hotel during the week, 49ers fan central on weekends. The hotel decor is upbeat and modern through the common spaces and guest rooms, with bold colors and strong graphic carpets that keep the mood energetic and positive. The furniture, in strong greens and oranges, has funky modern lines that provide lots of visual interest. The large lobby has a fireplace and television, and the outdoor terrace features a fire pit. Walls are hung with large works of abstract art, and planters are filled with unusual wild grasses. While the Hyatt House can get crowded, the atmosphere is lively and fun, which can be a real plus for those working away from home, or on a crazy football weekend, win or lose.

Location

Close to the airport, near Silicon Valley corporations, and 49ers stadium

The Hyatt House San Jose/Silicon Valley is five miles from the San Jose Airport, in Silicon Valley’s Golden Triangle. The Santa Clara Convention Center is within two miles, and the hotel operates a free shuttle to any business within a five-mile radius. Levi’s Stadium is two miles away; 49ers fans can walk to the game in 20- minutes. Sitting between a residential neighborhood and a strip mall, the hotel is within walking distance to plenty of restaurants, shops, and stores. Families will find amusement parks, surfing, ecotours, and other activities within a few miles. San Francisco is an hour’s drive.

Rooms

Funky, modern decor and kitchen gear

Rooms at the Hyatt House San Jose/Silicon Valley are clean and bright, with funky decor in dark brown, bold graphic carpets, and orange and chartreuse accents. Walls are decorated with cool photographs of San Jose cityscapes. Studios feel like small apartments, with full kitchens, large desks, ergonomic desk chairs, and modern bathrooms with shower stalls, but no tubs. Top-floor rooms are quietest; noisy neighbors can be a problem in rooms with connecting doors. Beds have pillow-tops, and flat-screen TVs come with premium channels, but there are no in-room safes. Wi-fi and wired internet are free, but can be spotty.

Features

Free airport and corporate shuttles, breakfast buffet, fitness center, and meeting facilities

The Hyatt House San Jose/Silicon Valley offers free airport transfers, a free shuttle to businesses within a five-mile radius of the hotel, and free indoor parking.

There are several meeting rooms, a conference center, and a nicely designed 24-hour business center. The lobby lounge, Bar H, is a fun spot. Guests can order from a gourmet grilled cheese menu, or a selection of chef-created takes on the TV dinner, and shoot some pool while their food is cooked.
