Very clean, comfortable, and convenient location. Expensive. It was nice, clean and very comfortable. In a good location. Only negative thing was cost extra $20 a night to park and they charged a $200 deposit on the credit card. They credited it back, but they said it would only use for damages. Would definitely stay again. Also no pool.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
The decor was beautiful and very clean, in a perfect location and very friendly staff. They need better refrigerators. Moderate in size made us feel more at home with this hotel. Very well maintained with a very helpful and friendly staff. Can't even compare to the Hilton across the street. I will definitely stay at this hotel again.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
The hotel was a good location and price. The bed was extremely comfortable. The breakfast buffet was horrible and very overpriced. I recommend this hotel for the comfort of the beds, cleanliness of the rooms and good value. The location was great. Just don't eat at the hotel. Go someplace nearby.

	Date of Stay: April, 2009
The staff was beyond helpful and friendly. Had to pay for parking. Went beyond our expectation, especially for the price. Very clean, very attractive hotel. Staff were very helpful and seemed to really enjoy their job.

	Date of Stay: March, 2009
Staff was more interested in the party-ers than other clients. The fact that they allowed a party/large group of people to stay on the same floor without warning other guests and the fact that I had to call the front desk at 3:30am to get the party to stop so I could sleep was ridiculous. Further, the hotel did not offer a real apology for what happened.

Nice and clean. It was good location for the Mary kay event.

	Date of Stay: March, 2009
The staff was very friendly and helpful and the beds were comfortable. The full length mirror had not been cleaned and was smeared with something not appealing. It made me wonder about the rest of the room.

Date of Stay: October, 2008

The restaurant was great, but pricey. The cleaning staff was amazing. The front desk help was patient. None of the room keys worked. We went down 3 times to exchange them. Our room door was broken. Restaurant was closed. Overall experience was pretty good with the exception of the room key fiasco. The hotel staff was very pleasant. They even camped our breakfast the next morning because of all the initial room problems that we had. Our original room door was broken and the keys did not work. I had to go down 3 separate times because they did not work. Once we got all of that taken care of and we finally switched rooms, we were more than satisfied. Very comfortable. The hospitality and maids were extremely nice and did an amazing job. Hotel was very clean. There was a $20 charge for parking overnight. But all in all it was a pleasant stay.

	Date of Stay: September, 2008
It was clean and very functional. Air conditioning was a bit noisy- in wall type unit. Hotel was clean, nice, well located. Overall a very good experience. The only negative was the air conditioner it was a wall unit and a little noisy.

	Date of Stay: August, 2008
Good location. This hotel was nice and clean in a good part of town, right across the street is a railway location if you don't want to drive and it is close to a bunch of night life locations. The winchester house is about 4 miles away and the fair grounds are about 5 miles. Had a great time.

	Date of Stay: May, 2008
Furniture was fun! Pricey snacks. Tons of fun to return to this room after a night out on the town!

Date of Stay: March, 2008

Beautiful remodel, crisp and clean interiors. Wretched noisy HVAC system, inconsistent housekeeping. This Crowne Plaza clearly underwent a recent renovation, as everything is spotless and crisp in a modern style. (Perhaps a style that will be in the future what the 70s are to us now, but it looks very nice for the time being.) The big disappointment with the room was that they renovated everything except the big wall HVAC unit, which sounds like a rusty tractor every time it kicks on. The manual controls were replaced with a great auto climate system, but the unit should have been sold as WWII surplus and replaced. I could not sleep with it on, period. This hotel also tickled one of my current pet peeves: They have installed nice, flat-panel HDTV screens in every room - connected to a SDTV-only Lodge Net system, set to stretch the image horizontally so that everything looks wrong.

	Date of Stay: February, 2008
Conveniently located downtown San Jose. Excellent restaurants within walking distance. Once again another hotel that is short of parking and jabs the guest to pay for it. Recently remodeled it is comfortable and convenient.

Date of Stay: August, 2007

Friendliness of staff. Overall our experience staying at the hotel was very positive. The hotel had recently been updated. The beds were very comfortable. The staff were very friendly. What I would have liked would have been a fridge and microwave in the room. Also the bathroom didn't have an air vent. The rooms were kept up well. Ate the breakfast buffet at the hotel restaurant and it was of poor quality and over priced. Great location for downtown San Jose and access to public transportation Overall great hotel, just don't eat their.

Date of Stay: June, 2007

Great remodel. I also loved the cookies available in the lobby. Only thing is the fan in the room was loud and more outlets would be helpful. I hadn't stayed at the Crown Plaza before. The hotel is undergoing remodels and the rooms and lobby were great. I am a hotel snob (next night I stayed at the Peninsula in Chicago) and I was pleasantly surprised by this place. Staff was friendly and location convenient.

Date of Stay: September, 2006

I was given a room on the 9th floor, no one was above me. There was not assistance from my vehicle to the lobby. I arrived at 11:15 pm and was a female traveling with a heavy box and my luggage. I found the help marginal. The bathroom had stains in the shower caulking. Water pressure was weak. I asked for the best directions to the Kinko's on Santa Clara. I was given directions to a postal express on san Carlos. It was not open. I lost twenty minutes of valuable work time. Hire people who care or train the staff you have to care. This was not even close to a three star hotel as far as service and quality are concerned.

	Date of Stay: September, 2006
Their beginning much needed renovations so the hotel was noisy and dirty. Dinner at the restaurant was good, but breakfast was awful. In the flight path of SJC, so not a restful quiet hotel at all. Very expensive parking.

	Date of Stay: May, 2006
Wonderful Bed. Nothing. Very clean with nicely appointed room. The bed was very comfortable.

Date of Stay: December, 2005

Very personable front desk. The breakfast service needs to be organized for faster service, even for the buffet. It is a nice hotel, but usually I stay up in the Mountain View area, so this was an inconvenient drive and I didn't request San Jose, so I'm not sure why I received it, except that travel was VERY heavy last week. The breakfast service was absent-minded, even for the buffet, I asked the waiter for cream for my coffee and it was another 5 minutes before it came, thereby keeping me from quaffing said beverage. This aspect of the hotel seemed out of sorts with the rest of the personnel and service I received, which I considered excellent.

	Date of Stay: December, 2005
Ear plugs. Severe noise train bus plane. Horrific noise train track right outside.
