Santa Clara Marriott  

In the tech-thrum heart of Santa Clara, this resort-like hotel puts you steps from California's Great America and minutes from Levi's Stadium. It's about 10 minutes from San Jose International Airport and within easy reach of Santa Clara University, Winchester Mystery House, the Children's Discovery Museum and the Intel Museum—an ideal, family-friendly hub for business and play.

Modern, California-meets-Silicon Valley rooms (about 766 total) feature flat-screen/Smart TVs, pillowtop beds with down comforters and contemporary furnishings. The property blends resort-style touches—cabana-lined decks around Silicon Valley's largest pool and an M Club lounge—with high-tech conveniences so you can work, recharge, and relax.

Swim year-round in the heated outdoor pool, sink into the spa tub, or keep fit in the 24/7 fitness center and on the outdoor tennis courts. Cabanas, a sauna, gift shop, and extensive on-site services make stays easy. Wake up to California sun and unwind poolside or on the terrace.

Huge event footprint with roughly 26 meeting rooms and about 26,849 sq ft of conference space. A 24-hour business center, express check-in/out, and wired and wireless internet keep meetings and remote work smooth with fast connectivity.

On-site restaurants include Bosc + Bartlett and The Orchard, plus a coffee shop and a bar/lounge. Expect locally inspired American cuisine, buffet breakfasts (for a fee), and limited room service when you want to stay in.
