(1,628 reviews) With so many options on hotels in the area, the Sonesta Silicone Valley on Barber Lane, is a hotel that keeps you wanting to return. The attention to detail and hospitality is hands down the best you'll find in the San Jose and Milpitas area. Close to everything you might want to go see and visit, plus has an exceptional restaurant with top quality food and a great selection of desserts to cure that sweet tooth. The bartender at restaurant Buu is fun to talk to and very Rooms are always clean and tidy. No smoke or sewer smell that you might fine in other hotels. This is a huge plus in my book. Love the walk-in showers that are very spacious and hot water almost on demand when you turn on the faucet. The shower products are very nice to have in the shower as well. The small store near the front desk is extremely convenient if you forget something from home. Great little snacks plus sandwiches and drinks that are great if you come in after restaurant/bar closes. Front desk Manager Renee and Assistant Manager Cassandra are definitely a huge asset to this hotel. They take customer service to another level.
