Silicon Valley in northern California is a lively place. Formerly associated with computer chip technology, the name now applies to a wide array of high technology businesses. Imaginative engineers met venture capitalist and moved into the neighborhood! Among the virtually thousands of corporations headquartered in the vicinity are Apple Inc., Intel, and eBay. Obviously, with so many huge names in the tech industry housed there, the hotel business is lively.

Silicon Valley hotels exist in abundant supply, catering to business travelers and tourists alike. Many cities are encompassed in the area, among them San Jose, which boasts a rare jewel among hotels. San Jose is proud to be the home of the Sainte Claire. One of a distinctive collection of properties owned by the Larkspur Company, it stands out among the downtown lodgings. Built in 1926, it exudes elegance and old world richness. On the register of Historic Hotels of America, its historical status does not prevent the Sainte Claire from providing the best that modern life has to offer!

From a complete business center to complimentary in room high speed internet, the Sainte Claire helps working travelers stay up to date. With special locations for meetings and large gatherings, it is perfect for business events. The elegant surroundings-especially the ballroom–also lend themselves well to social gatherings such as weddings and reunions.

The public spaces, such as the Palm Room and the spacious lobby, are nothing short of luxurious. Gorgeous rugs, looming plants, a glowing fireplace, beautiful architectural detailing, lovely window treatments, and lots and lots of wood create the effect of a turn of the century luxury hotel. Even the well-equipped fitness center-often an after thought–was given careful attention!

It goes without saying that the rooms are the embodiment of comfort. Marvelous FeatherBorne beds, which are unique to the Larkspur company’s hotels, provide an unbeatable night’s sleep. Many amenities await guests, such as wonderful bath products and flat screen televisions.

The Sainte Claire is a real treasure. A stay there makes any trip to San Jose more memorable. If you enjoy graceful atmosphere and elegant surroundings, you will adore this hotel!
