Convenient Parking Experience

“During my stay, I reserved parking through Way.com, which made the whole process seamless. The check-in at the front desk was easy, and even though my designated parking spots were full, the staff quickly directed me to park in the employee area and provided a pass. The shuttle service was timely and efficient, as it took only about four minutes to get to the airport.” view full review

Breakfast Buffet Highlights

“I enjoyed the breakfast buffet at the hotel. The pancakes were delicious and very fresh! However, I discovered that there were two prices for breakfast, and while we thought we were getting the continental option, we were served the higher-priced buffet instead. It's a good idea to confirm what you're paying for in advance.” view full review

Functional Fitness Area

“The fitness area was properly equipped, and I appreciated having the option to work out during my stay. While there were some issues with the key card system limiting access initially, once I had it sorted with a physical key, I was able to use the facilities without further issues.” view full review

Spacious Room Layout

“My room was quite spacious, which provided a nice level of comfort during my stay, even though the decor felt a bit dated. Despite some cleanliness shortcomings, the overall size and layout of the room contributed positively to my experience.” view full review

My stay at Doubletree By Hilton San Jose had its ups and downs. The location near the airport is super convenient, and I appreciated the spaciousness of the room, which felt comfortable for my needs. However, I encountered some serious issues with room amenities and parking that put a damper on my experience.

Rooms

5.0

The room was decent in size, but it definitely showed signs of age. There was an odd smell in the first room, and while I got moved, the overall decor felt outdated. I did enjoy the comfort of the bed, which helped me sleep well.

Service

The hotel staff was friendly and attentive, especially during check-in. They responded quickly to my issues, but some concerns around housekeeping and room amenities were not resolved to my satisfaction.

The proximity to the airport is a huge plus, making it easy for me to catch my flight. It's also near some business areas, which could be convenient for work trips.

Dining

5.0

I found the on-site dining options to be quite pricey. The breakfast had a good variety, but I wasn't keen on the added costs for cooked items, considering what I paid for the room.

Facilities

5.0

Although the common areas were clean and pleasant, I had frustrating experiences with parking. The need for a room key to enter and exit the lot created some stressful moments when kiosks weren't functioning.

My stay at Doubletree By Hilton San Jose didn’t quite hit the mark. While the staff was friendly, the overall experience was marred by lots of issues like long check-in times and a lack of essential amenities in the room. The hotel definitely needs some updates to make it feel more inviting.

The check-in process was frustratingly slow, taking a long time, and the front desk staff seemed overwhelmed. However, I appreciated how friendly they were when I finally got help.

Location

It’s conveniently located near the airport, which is great if you're traveling. But, the area could use some improvements in overall upkeep.

Dining

Dining options were a letdown. I wanted to try Spencer's but found out it was closed on Sundays, leaving me to drive elsewhere for dinner.

The hot tub jets were malfunctioning and there wasn't a microwave or fridge in the room. I didn't find the amenities very satisfying considering the price.

My stay at Doubletree By Hilton San Jose was filled with frustration. From checking in to the quality of the room, there were numerous issues, particularly with the outdated decor and unresponsive staff. The dining options were decent, although I was surprised by the unexpected charges. I can't say I had a restful experience, which is disappointing given the Hilton brand.

The room was notably outdated with a 90s vibe. I encountered mold in the bathroom, and the AC struggled to keep us cool. It made for an uncomfortable stay overall.

My stay at the Doubletree By Hilton San Jose was a mixed bag. The staff were incredibly friendly and greeted me with warm cookies at check-in, which I loved. However, the room I was given had a stale smell and felt outdated, which put a damper on my experience. I appreciated the convenient shuttle service to the airport, but overall, the room conditions weren't up to par.

United States of America, November 2024

7.4/10

My stay at the Doubletree By Hilton San Jose was a bit of a rollercoaster. On the plus side, I appreciated the spacious layout of the rooms and the attentive staff who tried their best to help. However, I was disappointed with issues like the outdated decor, not-so-great odor in the room, and confusion around my reservation. It wasn't the relaxing experience I'd hoped for. 😕

Rooms

5.0

The room I stayed in seemed quite dated, and I noticed scuff marks on the walls. The smell was off-putting, as it felt old and not well-maintained. I was also frustrated that the AC wasn’t working efficiently, making it uncomfortable at times.

Service

5.0

While some staff were friendly, I encountered a few who were dismissive and unhelpful, especially during check-in. On the other hand, another waitress at breakfast was excellent and should definitely train the rest of the team.

Location

5.0

I liked the hotel's location since it was close to downtown and attractions, making it convenient for my plans. However, the area around the hotel could use some cleaning up as it felt a bit neglected at times.

Dining

5.0

The breakfast options were decent, but I felt the prices were quite high for what was offered. I was surprised by the confusion regarding my breakfast package when it came to pricing.

Facilities

5.0

The amenities I encountered were functional but not extraordinary. I appreciated the presence of a business center and common areas that were clean and welcoming, yet I felt that some features like the pool could be improved. Also, I found the parking situation a hassle, especially regarding my digital key.
