Hotel De Anza
2.5 mile(s) from San Jose Airport

Hotel De Anza opened in 1931 during the height of the Depression Era. Built at the then-astronomical cost of $505,000, the hotel became an architectural and social landmark, drawing legendary celebrities and political figures. The 25-foot "diving lady," painted on the west side of the building (1951) to advertise the hotel's heated pool, remains a local attraction, as does the rooftop neon sign. Renovated and re-opened in 1990, the hotel's terracotta, peach, and earth-tone exterior was restored, and the ceilings in the Hedley Club Lounge and De Anza Room are exact duplicates of the original polychrome overheads.

Breakfast is served daily in the De Anza Room, amid hand-painted walls and murals. The opulent Hedley Club Lounge offers a wood-burning fireplace, cocktails, and live jazz. Other amenities include a fitness center, and concierge services. Guests booking on Hotels.com will get upgraded to the next available room type.
