[802.3af] Re: Hotel in the area for 28/4/03
Moty-
Regarding hotels near the (potential) meeting site, both the:
- Hilton Santa
Clara (new,
about 1 year old)
- 4949 Great American Parkway
- Santa Clara, CA
and
- The Westin Santa Clara
- 5101 Great America Pkwy
- Santa Clara, CA
are within easy walking distance (between 5 & 8 minutes) of
Nortel (they are immediately north at the corner of Tasman & Gt
America). Both of them are also immediately adjacent to a streetcar stop
to take you to either downtown San Jose or downtown Mountain View. I know
the Hilton has a free airport shuttle. The Westin doesn't seem to.
Also within walking distance to the south is:
- Santa Clara Marriott (free
airport shuttle to/from San Jose)
- 2700 Mission College Boulevard
- (at the corner of Great America Parkway)
- Santa Clara, CA 95054
- Phone: 408 988 1500
- Fax: 408 727 4353
- Web:
www.marriotthotels.com
and
- Holiday Inn (free airport
shuttle to/from San Jose)
- 4200 GREAT AMERICA PARKWAY
- SANTA CLARA, CA 95054-1210
- UNITED STATES
- Toll-Free: 1800-5865691
- Tel: 1-408-2358900
- Fax: 1-408-9880976
After these four you pretty much will need a car unless you come
from some less obvious and more distant hotel and take public transit.
There are an enormous number of hotels in the area that service both the
business needs of Silicon Valley and the recreational travelers to Great
America Amusement Park (next door to us). Of the 3 above I would say they
all are typical business grade hotels and you should pick from them based
on what sort of web deal you can get. The Holiday Inn caters to a more
recreational crowd.
I hope this helps.
