Hilton San Jose  

In the heart of Silicon Valley, a downtown San Jose hotel just steps from the McEnery Convention Center and performing arts venues. Walk to the Tech Interactive, San Jose Museum of Art, Adobe headquarters and the SAP Center. About 5 miles from San Jose International Airport — a great pick for family-friendly or business-focused stays.

Rooms come with pillowtop beds, refrigerators and LCD TVs, plus private bathrooms with tubs or showers. Many rooms offer views toward the Santa Cruz Mountains. The vibe is modern and business-ready, with premium bedding and roomy work areas.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool or soak in the hot tub, and keep fit in the 24-hour gym. There’s a concierge and tour desk, a kids’ playroom, laundry and dry-cleaning, ATM and car-rental services. Wake up to mountain views and stroll straight into downtown dining and museums.

Connected via an enclosed concourse to the McEnery Convention Center, offering vast exhibit halls, a large ballroom and dozens of breakout rooms. On-site meeting rooms and a business center support conferences of any size, with express check-in/out and self-parking available. Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected.

An on-site restaurant, bar and patio serve seasonal California cuisine and crafted cocktails, plus a convenience/grocery shop for grab-and-go items. Cooked-to-order breakfasts are offered daily for a fee. Note that some dining outlets close seasonally around late December to early January.
