The Spotlight on Best Western Plus Airport Plaza

Comfort and Convenience Near San Jose's Music Scene

Modern and budget-friendly, the Best Western Plus Airport Plaza is a great pick for music lovers visiting San Jose. Just 1.6 miles from the SAP Center and under 2.5 miles from downtown venues like the San Jose Convention Center, this hotel offers a relaxed, no-fuss atmosphere with perks like free WiFi, a seasonal outdoor pool, and hot tub. A quick drive from San Jose International Airport (only 1.2 miles away), it's a solid home base for your concert night or weekend getaway.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything when you're catching a show, and this hotel delivers. You’ll be just minutes from major venues, with free on-site parking and easy access to ride shares or public transit. The 24-hour front desk makes late check-ins hassle-free, and the quiet residential setting means you can actually get some rest after the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a solid base with parking and nearby eats
  • Solo travelers flying in for a bucket-list artist
  • Couples making a weekend of it with wine tasting and live music
  • Fans who want a quieter post-concert recovery space
  • Budget-conscious music fans who still want comfort and convenience

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, the hotel offers complimentary breakfast—perfect after a late night out. You're also close to a variety of walkable restaurants and cafes along The Alameda. Craving a late-night bite? Nearby eateries and delivery apps have you covered.

Nightlife Options

You're within a short drive or ride-share of downtown San Jose’s bars, lounges, and late-night spots. While the hotel itself stays quiet, it's a great launch pad for exploring the city's vibrant nightlife before or after your show.

What People Say

Guests love the clean rooms, friendly staff, and convenient location. Reviewers highlight the easy access to both the airport and downtown venues, and many appreciate the free parking and reliable WiFi. The hot tub is a surprisingly popular way to unwind post-concert.

Areas for Improvement

This isn't a luxury stay, and some guests mention the rooms as being a bit basic—think comfort over style. There's no bar or restaurant on-site, and the pool is seasonal, so keep that in mind if you're visiting in cooler months.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a clean, affordable, and super convenient stay near San Jose's top concert venues, Best Western Plus Airport Plaza hits all the right notes.

Would stay again!

Liked: Great staff.Rooms very big, with big bathrooms, nice and hot showers.Plenty of plugs.Huge tv, with lots of channels.Breakfast had loads of choice, and was topped up regularly. Can’t fault it. Bacon, sausage (patty) eggs and potatos for hot food.Good location. 10 mins drive from Santana Row and 10 from Japan town.
Disliked: Could do with an update, (slightly 90’s vibes).but nothing else to fault.Hairdryer should do with more than 20cm of power cable.

Good experiment in general

Liked: The room in general was comfortable, but we had a silver fish on a bed at one night!The shampoo and conditioner were absolutely waste of plastic containers; there were super small bottles that wasn't even enough for one time use! One of the towels had hair on it! other than that, everything was nice, the room had a nice workstation.The breakfast was really nice with plenty of options.
Disliked: The main lady at front desk was not super nice, we wanted to stay at the lobby for a few hours after we checked out on the same day, the first thing she mentioned was you cannot use the bathroom here since you are not a guest anymore! But at least she let us to stay. We had a silver fish on a bed at one night!
