The Spotlight on Motel 6-San Jose CA - Convention Center

Affordable Comfort Steps from the SAP Center


Simple, clean, and budget-friendly, Motel 6-San Jose CA - Convention Center is a no-frills stay with a prime location. Just a 10-minute walk from major downtown venues, this motel puts you close to the heart of San Jose’s live music scene. With a relaxed vibe and easy access to public transport, it’s a solid pick for music fans who want to catch a show without breaking the bank.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything here — you can walk to the SAP Center in under 10 minutes, making it perfect for catching headliners without worrying about parking or rideshares. The motel is also only 3 miles from San Jose International Airport, ideal for out-of-towners flying in for a big event. While it’s close to the action, the area tends to quiet down at night so you can rest after the encore. The 24-hour front desk and vending machines make late-night check-ins and post-show snacks a breeze.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends traveling together on a budget
  • Solo travelers in town to see a favorite band or artist
  • Couples looking for an affordable weekend concert getaway
  • Fans wanting a quieter and simple place to crash after the show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who prioritize location over luxury

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, each room includes a refrigerator, so you can stash snacks and leftovers. Vending machines provide quick bites when you're in a pinch, and the motel’s central location means you're within walking distance of casual eateries and coffee shops — great for grabbing breakfast after a late night out.

Nightlife Options

You're just a short walk or quick drive from downtown San Jose’s vibrant nightlife. Whether you’re heading to a live show, checking out nearby bars, or looking for a quiet spot to sip a local brew, you’ve got options. The popular Santana Row is only 10 minutes away by car, offering upscale lounges, restaurants, and evening entertainment.

What People Say

Guests frequently praise the motel’s proximity to SAP Center and its affordable rates. Many appreciate the clean, basic rooms and the convenience of free parking. Reviewers also note the friendly staff and the ease of check-in as highlights for a short concert-focused stay.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention the motel is a bit dated and could benefit from minor updates, especially in the bathrooms. Others note occasional street noise or thin walls, so light sleepers might want earplugs. But overall, most agree the value and location outweigh the downsides.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a no-fuss, affordable place to crash after a concert, Motel 6-San Jose CA - Convention Center delivers on location, value, and convenience.

Very poor

Liked: Location good. Grounds clean. Liked the breakfast nook table. Liked the sink area.
Disliked: Atrocious hard bed. TV had no signal, therefore no tv. Floor not very clean. No coffee at 9:15am. Pillows awful. In the morning a mobile tire service came in to parking lot with music blaring. Staircase rail sticky dirty. Door does not close tight. Gap in door/frame.

Liked: Definitely a great location! So many places close to eat CHINGADERAS RESTAURANT is the place to eat.
Disliked: One of the staff was very rude!! When I contacted him about the AC not working and he came to my room he got it to work but when I asked if it messed up again could I be moved to another room he said no because it was booked and then I asked if it does mess up then can I get a discount? He was already walking out as if trying to help with my concerns did not matter and his reply back to me was I don’t know ???

Horrible customer service and not...

Liked: The price and location.
Disliked: Upon walking in there was a piece to a condom wrapper on the floor, the tables were sticky with cup marks on there. Also I am disabled and had not realized I did not request a handicapped room. I asked if I could get a bottom floor room and informed no. The only way was to pay extra but was previously told no floor level rooms were available. My key card deactivated 3 times I had to walk up and down the stairs. Again I am disabled and use a cane for mobility issues. No sorry just attitude.
